Family Pact

Famous quotes containing the words family and/or pact:

“Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)

“I make a pact with you, Walt Whitman—
I have detested you long enough.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
