Long Acting

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or acting:

    Things said or done long years ago,
    Or things I did not do or say
    But though that I might say or do,
    Weigh me down, and not a day
    But something is recalled,
    My conscience or my vanity appalled.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    More broadly across time and cultures, it seems, one perennial piece of advice to father has been the importance of acting tenderly toward their children. The New Father, it turns out, is an old story.
    David Blankenhorn (20th century)
