Famous quotes containing the words main, music, professional and/or activities:

    “But the main things about a man are his eyes and his feet. He should be able to see the world and go after it.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    “Good music is very close to primitive language.”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

    “I sometimes wonder whether, in the still, sleepless hours of the night, the consciences of ... professional gossips do not stalk them. I myself believe in a final reckoning, when we shall be held accountable for our misdeeds. Do they? If so, they have cause to worry over many scoops that brought them a day’s dubious laurels and perhaps destroyed someone’s peace forever.”
    —Mary Pickford (1893–1979)

    “If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)
