Recognize

Famous quotes containing the word recognize:

    Once you have a child, you change so much along the way, you don’t even recognize yourself by the time they’re ready to move out!
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    We can recognize the dawn and the decline of love by the uneasiness we feel when alone together.
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)

    Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
