Noticed

Famous quotes containing the word noticed:

    I’ve noticed that the children of other nations always seem precocious. That’s because the strange manners of their elders have caught our attention most and the children echo those manners enough to seem like their parents.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    I think I noticed once
    T’was morning one sole street-lamp still bright-lit,
    Which, with a senile grin, like an old dunce,
    Vied the blue sky, and tried to rival it....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    We Americans are supposed to be overly concerned about the child. But actually the intelligent care of children in our society is balanced by a crass indifference to the helplessness of infancy and youth. Cruelty to children has become more widespread but less noticed in the general unrest, the constant migration, the family disintegration, and the other manifestations of a civilization that has been torn away from its original moorings.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
