Famous quotes containing the words infant, mortality and/or rate:

    As some heads cannot carry much wine, so it would seem that I cannot bear so much society as you can. I have an immense appetite for solitude, like an infant for sleep, and if I don’t get enough of it this year, I shall cry all the next.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Antiquity breached mortality with myths.
    Narcissus is vocabulary. Hermes decorates
    A cornice on the Third National Bank.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    If you could choose your parents,... we would rather have a mother who felt a sense of guilt—at any rate who felt responsible, and felt that if things went wrong it was probably her fault—we’d rather have that than a mother who immediately turned to an outside thing to explain everything, and said it was due to the thunderstorm last night or some quite outside phenomenon and didn’t take responsibility for anything.
    D.W. Winnicott (20th century)
