Famous quotes containing the words showing and/or hand:
“They mustnt know my despair, I cant let them see the wounds which they have caused, I couldnt bear their sympathy and their kind-hearted jokes, it would only make me want to scream all the more. If I talk, everyone thinks Im showing off; when Im silent they think Im ridiculous; rude if I answer, sly if I get a good idea, lazy if Im tired, selfish if I eat a mouthful more than I should, stupid, cowardly, crafty, etc. etc.”
—Anne Frank (19291945)
“There is not enough exercise in this way of life. I try to make up by active gymnastics before I dress when I get up, by walking rapidly in the lower hall and the greenhouse after each meal for perhaps five to ten minutes, and a good hand rubbing before going to bed. I eat moderately; drink one cup of coffee at breakfast and one cup of tea at lunch and no other stimulant. My health is now, and usually, excellent.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
