“Adolescence is a time when children are supposed to move away from parents who are holding firm and protective behind them. When the parents disconnect, the children have no base to move away from or return to. They aren’t ready to face the world alone.

Often they feel that their parents broke the rules and so now they can too.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)

“I believe it has been said that one copy of The Times contains more useful information than the whole of the historical works of Thucydides.”
