Stable Relationship

Famous quotes containing the words stable and/or relationship:

    And neigh like Boanerges—
    Then—punctual as a Star
    Stop—docile and omnipotent
    At its own stable door—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Strange and predatory and truly dangerous, car thieves and muggers—they seem to jeopardize all our cherished concepts, even our self-esteem, our property rights, our powers of love, our laws and pleasures. The only relationship we seem to have with them is scorn or bewilderment, but they belong somewhere on the dark prairies of a country that is in the throes of self-discovery.
    John Cheever (1912–1982)
