Listen

Famous quotes containing the word listen:

    Basil: What I meant was, what work do you do?

    Michael Cacoyannis (b. 1922)

    You can read the best experts on child care. You can listen to those who have been there. You can take a whole childbirth and child-care course without missing a lesson. But you won’t really know a thing about yourselves and each other as parents, or your baby as a child, until you have her in your arms. That’s the moment when the lifelong process of bringing up a child into the fold of the family begins.
    Stella Chess (20th century)

    “I have answered three questions, and that is enough,”
    Said his father; “don’t give yourself airs!
    Do you think I can listen all day to such stuff?
    Be off, or I’ll kick you downstairs!”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
