Famous quotes containing the words core and/or members:

    “Avoiding humiliation is the core of tragedy and comedy.”
    —John Guare (b. 1938)

    “Two myths must be shattered: that of the evil stepparent . . . and the myth of instant love, which places unrealistic demands on all members of the blended family. . . . Between the two opposing myths lies reality. The recognition of reality is, I believe, the most important step toward the building of a successful second family.”
    —Claire Berman (20th century)
