Poor Visibility

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or visibility:

    And when we get too far apart in wealth,
    ‘Twas his idea that for the public health,
    So that the poor won’t have to steal by stealth,
    We now and then should take an equalizer.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    My children have taught me things. Things I thought I knew. The most profound wisdom they have given me is a respect for human vulnerability. I have known that people are resilient, but I didn’t appreciate how fragile they are. Until children learn to hide their feelings, you read them in their faces, gestures, and postures. The sheer visibility of shyness, pain, and rejection let me recognize and remember them.
    Shirley Nelson Garner (20th century)
