Famous quotes containing the words absent and/or friends:

    “All that remains to the mother in modern consumer society is the role of scapegoat; psychoanalysis uses huge amounts of money and time to persuade analysands to foist their problems on to the absent mother, who has no opportunity to utter a word in her own defence. Hostility to the mother in our societies is an index of mental health.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “though I loved them for their faults
    As much as for their good,
    My friends were enemies on stilts
    With their heads in a cunning cloud.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
