Initiate Divorce

Famous quotes containing the words initiate and/or divorce:

    The need to become a separate self is as urgent as the yearning to merge forever. And as long as we, not our mother, initiate parting, and as long as our mother remains reliably there, it seems possible to risk, and even to revel in, standing alone.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)

    Counsel men to discipline their children, but not to divorce their wives.
