Famous quotes containing the word shapiro:

    As groceries in a pantry gleam and smile
    Because they are important weights
    Bought with the metal minutes of your pay,
    So do these hours stand in solid rows,
    The dowry for a use in common life.
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    The addition of a helpless, needy infant to a couple’s life limits freedom of movement, changes role expectancies, places physical demands on parents, and restricts spontaneity.
    —Jerrold Lee Shapiro (20th century)

    Lastly, his tomb
    Shall list and founder in the troughs of grass
    And none shall speak his name.
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
