Famous quotes containing the words strict, nature and/or reserves:

    We know what boredom is: it is a dull
    Impatience or a fierce velleity,
    A champing wish, stalled by our lassitude,
    To make or do. In the strict sense, of course,
    We invent nothing, merely bearing witness
    To what each morning brings again to light:
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    All nature is but art unknown to thee;
    All chance, direction which thou canst not see;
    All discord, harmony not understood;
    All partial evil, universal good;
    And, spite of pride, in erring reason’s spite,
    One truth is clear, “Whatever IS, is RIGHT.”
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    While you are nurturing your newborn, you need someone to nurture you, whether it is with healthful drinks while you’re nursing, or with words of recognition and encouragement as you talk about your feelings. In this state of continual giving to your infant—whether it is nourishment or care or love—you are easily drained, and you need to be replenished from sources outside yourself so that you will have reserves to draw from.
    Sally Placksin (20th century)
