Case

Famous quotes containing the word case:

    What do you think of the human mind? I mean, in case you think there is a human mind.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    A new talker will often call her caregiver “mommy,” which makes parents worry that the child is confused about who is who. She isn’t.

    Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
