Famous quotes containing the word health:
“At present the globe goes with a shattered constitution in its orbit.... No doubt the simple powers of nature, properly directed by man, would make it healthy and a paradise; as the laws of mans own constitution but wait to be obeyed, to restore him to health and happiness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I would hope that parents and grown children could be friends. When a friend confides in you that shes going to do something that you think is most inappropriate, foolhardy or even dangerous, wouldnt you as a friend say soin a calm, supportive way? Yet I have to be so careful what I say to my children. I have to walk on eggs to be sure Im not hurting their feelings or interfering with their lives.”
—Anonymous Parent of Adult Children. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Womens Health Book Collective, ch. 5 (1978)
“Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between childrens and our own needs, works only for a timebecause, as one father says, Its a new ball game just about every week. So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.”
