Tying Run

Famous quotes containing the words tying and/or run:

    The average parent may, for example, plant an artist or fertilize a ballet dancer and end up with a certified public accountant. We cannot train children along chicken wire to make them grow in the right direction. Tying them to stakes is frowned upon, even in Massachusetts.
    Ellen Goodman (b. 1941)

    Man hath still either toys or care:
    But hath no root, nor to one place is tied,
    But ever restless and irregular,
    About this earth doth run and ride.
    He knows he hath a home, but scarce knows where;
    He says it is so far,
    That he has quite forgot how to go there.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
