Time Points Scored

Famous quotes containing the words time, points and/or scored:

    If I ever see more clearly at one time than at another, the medium through which I see is clearer.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Type of the wise, who soar, but never roam—
    True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home!
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Like those before it, this decade takes on the marketable subtleties of a private phenomenon: parenthood. Mothers are being teased out of the home and into the agora for a public trial. Are we doing it right? Do we have the right touch? The right toys? The right lights? Is our child going to grow up tall, thin and bright? Something private, and precious, has become public, vulgarized—and scored by impersonal judges.
    Sonia Taitz (20th century)
