Dear Sirs

                                       


Head Start has long been a valued presence in my rural county. I’m asking you to oppose proposed regulatory changes to Head Start that could undermine access to educational support and health screenings, especially impacting children with disabilities and rural communities.

Quotes by Vicki Lane  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I remember something that my granny told me once about these misty mountains of ours they call the Smokies. Granny said God hung that haze on purpose, to hide these hills from the folks up in Heaven who was raised here, so they wouldn't look down and be homesick.”
― Vicki Lane, The Day of Small Things

“Prayer ain't weakened by distance.”
― Vicki Lane, The Day of Small Things

“He finally got off the chain that was in his head: do you see that, honey? The chain in his head was stronger than the one you undid every night. You remember that, now. It ain't only dogs that is on chains.”
― Vicki Lane, The Day of Small Things

Topics Mentioning This Author

“Remember: when people tell you something’s wrong or doesn’t work for them, they are almost always right. When they tell you exactly what they think is wrong and how to fix it, they are almost always wrong.”
― Neil Gaiman

“I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:
1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.”
― Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time

“Elm, he do brood And oak, he do hate, But the willow-man goes walking, If you stays out late.”
― Neil Gaiman, American Gods
