Famous quotes containing the words older and/or sibling:

“Music at its best is not in need of novelty; indeed, the older it is, the more one is accustomed to it, the stronger its effect.”

“Whether changes in the sibling relationship during adolescence create long-term rifts that spill over into adulthood depends upon the ability of brothers and sisters to constantly redefine their connection. Siblings either learn to accept one another as independent individuals with their own sets of values and behaviors or cling to the shadow of the brother and sister they once knew.”
