Stopped

Famous quotes containing the word stopped:

“Our day you will find that you have stopped regarding your baby as a totally unpredictable and therefore rather alarming novelty, and have begun instead to think of him as a person with tastes, preferences and characteristics of his own. When that happens you will know that he has moved on from being a “newborn” and has got himself settled into life.”
—Penelope Leach (20th century)

“I stopped loving my father a long time ago. What remained was the slavery to a pattern.”
—Anaïs Nin (1903–1977)

“I happened to find
Your picture. That picture. I stopped there cold,
Like a man raking piles of dead leaves in his yard
Who has turned up a severed hand.”
—William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)
