Famous quotes containing the word striving:
“Toddlerhood resembles adolescence because of the rapidity of physical growth and because of the impulse to break loose of parental boundaries. At both ages, the struggle for independence exists hand in hand with the often hidden wish to be contained and protected while striving to move forward in the world. How parents and toddlers negotiate their differences sets the stage for their ability to remain partners during childhood and through the rebellions of the teenage years.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
“Building worlds is not enough for the deeper urging mind;
but a loving heart sates the striving spirit.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
“We have psychologized like the insane, who make their insanity greater by striving to understand it.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
