Famous quotes containing the words day and/or show:

    One day perhaps I’ll know
    What makes you be so lucky in your ratio
    One of those “more things,” could it be? Horatio.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    You don’t hit a child when you want him to stop hitting. You don’t yell at a children to get them to stop yelling. Or spit at a child to indicate that he should not spit. Of course, you want children to know how to sympathize with others and to “know how it feels,” but you ... have to show them how to act—not how not to act.
    Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
