Birth Quotations
Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death.
Albert Einstein
Why is it that we rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral? It is because we are not the person involved.
Mark Twain
I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.
Thomas Jefferson
These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.
Steve Jobs
You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.
