Famous quotes containing the words long and/or narrow:
“You want to prepare your child to think as he gets older. You want him to be critical in his judgments. Teaching a child, by your example, that there’s never any room for negotiating or making choices in life may suggest that you expect blind obedience—but it won’t help him in the long run to be discriminating in choices and thinking.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
“I kiss my wailing child and press it to my breast,
And hear the narrow graves calling my child and me.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
