Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide,
And that one talent which is death to hide
Lodged with me useless.”

Add to that the envy that one child feels for the accomplishments of the other; the resentment that each child feels for the privileges of the other; the personal frustrations that they don’t dare let out on anyone else but a brother or sister, and it’s not hard to understand why in families across the land, the sibling relationship contains enough emotional dynamite to set off rounds of daily explosions.”
—Adele Faber (20th century)
“Sir Walter, being strangely surprised and put out of his countenance at so great a table, gives his son a damned blow over the face.
