Harriet Ann Jacobs |
When they told me my new-born babe was a girl, my heart was heavier than it had ever been before. Slavery is terrible for men; but it is far more terrible for women. |
Harriet Ann Jacobs |
When my babe was born, they said it was premature. It weighed only four pounds; but God let it live. |
Kirsty Gallacher |
I don't find offensive that I'm being labelled a babe by blokes. I'm absolutely flattered. |
Monte Irvin |
Oscar Charleston was the Willie Mays of his day. Nobody ever played center field better than Willie Mays. Suppose they had never given Willie a chance, and we said that, would anybody believe there was a kid in Alabama who was that good? Or there was a black guy in Atlanta who might break Babe Ruth's home run record? No. |
Reggie Jackson |
Babe Ruth was great. I'm just lucky. |
Thomas Chandler Haliburton |
A woman has two smiles that an angel might envy, the smile that accepts a lover before words are uttered, and the smile that lights on the first born babe, and assures it of a mother's love. |
Carla Hall |
My plans are not to open a restaurant, but what I would like to do is open a kitchen somewhere in D.C. proper and have a chef's table where people can come and taste my food without having to have a catered event. |
Christina Aguilera |
The most vulnerable people have tough exteriors because they are very scared inside, and it's very hard for people like that - people like me - to open up. But playing it safe means you stop being open to learning. I always try to find the challenges. |
Dave Eggers |
You can do and use the skills that you have. The schools need you. The teachers need you. Students and parents need you. They need your actual person: your physical personhood and your open minds and open ears and boundless compassion, sitting next to them, listening and nodding and asking questions for hours at a time. |
E. B. White |
The world is full of people who have never, since childhood, met an open doorway with an open mind. |
