    The mother whose self-image is dependent on her children places on those children the responsibility for her own identity, and her involvement in the details of their lives can put great pressure on the children.

Yet it is also important to acknowledge how far and how fast many men have moved towards a pattern that not long ago virtually all men considered anathema.
    Katherine Gerson (20th century)

    Dogs should not chase chickens, and men should not fight with their wives.
    Chinese proverb.

    It could be said that the AIDS pandemic is a classic own-goal scored by the human race against itself.
