Meeting Thomas

Famous quotes containing the words meeting and/or thomas:

    I think it is better to show love by meeting needs than to keep telling my son that I love him. Right now he is learning to tie his shoes. He is old enough, so even though it’s hard for him, sometimes I insist. But once in a while when I see he’s tired I still do it for him, and I have noticed that while I am tying his shoe, he says, “I love you, Mommy.” When he says, “I love you,” I know that he knows that he is loved.
    Anonymous Parent (20th century)

    Her fist of a face died clenched on a round pain;
    And sculptured Ann is seventy years of stone.
    These cloud-sopped, marble hands, this monumental
    Argument of the hewn voice, gesture and psalm,
    Storm me forever over her grave
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
