Famous quotes containing the words silvery and/or influences:

“Bright-black-eyed silvery creature, brushed with brown,
The wings not folded in repose, but spread.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“However diligent she may be, however dedicated, no mother can escape the larger influences of culture, biology, fate . . . until we can actually live in a society where mothers and children genuinely matter, ours is an essentially powerless responsibility. Mothers carry out most of the work orders, but most of the rules governing our lives are shaped by outside influences.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
