National Water Carrier

Famous quotes containing the words national, water and/or carrier:

    There is no national science just as there is no national multiplication table; anything that is national is not scientific.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    Because of neglect, Son,
    though well-forged
    in affectionate bonds,
    Love in time
    will trickle away
    like water through cupped hands.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    When toddlers are unable to speak about urgent matters, they must resort to crying or screaming. This happens even with adults. The voice is the carrier of emotion, and when speech fails us, we need to cry out in whatever form we can to convey our meaning. Often, what passes for negativism is really the toddler’s desperate effort to make herself understood.
    Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
