A Quote by Helen Dunmore

I can remember being in my pram: children stayed in their prams much longer then than they do now. A big bouncy pram with black covers and a hood with metal clips that could trap your fingers. I was looking up at my sister who was sitting on the pram seat, with her back to me.

This friend of mine had a terrible upbringing. When his mother lifted him up to feed him, his father rented the pram out. Then, when they came into money later, his mother hired a woman to push the pram - and he's been pushed for money ever since.

Chic Murray

I have always had strong maternal instincts. Even when I was still a child I cut out pictures of prams from newspapers and imagined the feeling of pushing my own pram through fresh winter snow and seeing the wheels' tracks behind me in the snow.

Agnetha Faltskog

Brits are far more intelligent and civilised than Americans. I love the fact that you can hail a taxi and just pick up your pram and put in the back of the cab without having to collapse it. I love the parks and places I go for dinner and my friends.

Gwyneth Paltrow

There is no more sombre enemy of good art than the pram in the hall.

Cyril Connolly

I have also considered many scientific plans during my pushing you around in your pram!

Albert Einstein

I swore that I wouldn't be one of those parents who leaves a Bugaboo pram parked in the communal entry hall. Well guess what, ours is there right now.

Tom Ford

I was running around and bouncing out of the pram as a baby.

Jason Statham

When I was a wee baby, if I heard any music, I would just get up in my buggy or my pram and start bobbing around.

Francesca Hayward

I don't follow any kind of 'isms.' If there is one, it will be Pram-ism.

Pramoedya Ananta Toer

I've bought some Lanvin snake-print wedges, so maybe you'll see me pushing the pram in those and my hotpants!

Abbey Clancy

I enjoyed throwing the toys out of the pram, although not in a petulant way.

Freddie Fox

I was a bit of a handful when I was a kid because I was quite hyperactive. Even in the house my mum used to put me in my pram because I was so full-on.

Zayn Malik

I am quite a calm player. I do have a go at players and refs in the heat of the moment, but I never throw my toys out of the pram.

Harry Kane

I don't know if you've ever been shoved into the bow of a nutshell pram, a boat that is very easily almost liftable with one hand, and quite tippy, and is being piloted by a 12-year-old, but it is the true feeling of having your life in someone else's hands, and it's very precarious.

John Hodgman

All my life, I have been surrounded by the track. The week I was born, Dad took me to training. I do recall at some stage being pushed around in a pram on a track. I have a lot of inspiration from him. To see him carrying the Sydney Olympic torch really ignited my dream. As a coach, he knows the in and outs of race walking and technique.

Dane Bird-Smith

My daughter is 12 weeks old and I've been in a training camp for 10 weeks. So I haven't held her properly and been out pushing the pram, doing the little things. But when I'm slugging it out and things are getting tough I just think, 'everything is for the kids.'
