“A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a joke or worried to death by a frown on the right person's brow.”
Charles Brower
“Glass, china, and reputation are easily cracked, and never mended well.”
Benjamin Franklin
“It's fragile and broken, help me fix it, handle it with care, take my heart, just don't tear it apart.”
Audra Bukauskas
“Men kick friendship around like a football but it doesn't seem to break. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.”
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
“The beast in me Is caged by frail and fragile bars”
Johnny Cash
“Civilization is hideously fragile and there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish.”
Carrie P. Snow
“Today I learned a very valuable lesson: Children are much more aware of what is going on in their heart and mind than you think. They see more than you show and hear more than you say. They can look in your eyes and tell you if you are sincere. They are both fragile, yet resilient at the same time. If you delve deep enough, you will hold the very essence of innocence in your hands.”
