Close Relationship

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or relationship:

    Their legs long, delicate and slender, aquamarine their eyes,
    Magical unicorns bear ladies on their backs.
    The ladies close their musing eyes. No prophecies,
    Remembered out of Babylonian almanacs,
    Have closed the ladies’ eyes, their minds are but a pool
    Where even longing drowns under its own excess....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    When a mother quarrels with a daughter, she has a double dose of unhappiness—hers from the conflict, and empathy with her daughter’s from the conflict with her. Throughout her life a mother retains this special need to maintain a good relationship with her daughter.
    Terri Apter (20th century)
