Famous quotes containing the words channel and/or shelter:
“Children belong in families, which, ideally, serve as a sanctuary and a cushion from the world at large. Parents belong to society and are a part of that greater world. Sometimes parents are a channel to the larger society, sometimes they are a shield from it. Ideally they act as filters, guiding their children and teaching them to avoid the tempting trash.”
—Louise Hart (20th century)
“You will break the lie of men’s thoughts,
and cherish and shelter us.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
