Photo Radar

Famous quotes containing the words photo and/or radar:

    A photo of someone else’s childhood,
    a garden in another country—world
    he had no part in and has no power to imagine:
    yet the old man who has failed his memory
    keens over the picture— ‘Them happy days—
    gone—gone for ever!’
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    So I begin to understand why my mother’s radar is so sensitive to criticism. She still treads the well-worn ruts of her youth, when her impression of mother was of a woman hard to please, frequently negative, and rarely satisfied with anyone—least of all herself.
    Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
