Famous quotes containing the words grandparents, day and/or world:

    Another appealing aspect to having grandparents is that they do help, to give [your child] a sense of continuity—of his place in the world and in the generations. Not only do grandparents help him intellectually to comprehend that there are parents of parents, but they also aid him in understanding where he fits in the succession of things. Even a very young child can begin to feel a sense of rootedness and history.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    Singing I was at peace,
    Above the clouds, outside the ring:
    For sorrow finds a swift release in song
    And pride its poise.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    I wonder if I’ve been changed in the night? Let me think: was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I’m not the same, the next question is “Who in the world am I?” Ah, that’s the great puzzle!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
