What i would like to give my daughter is freedom. and this is something that must be given by example, not exhortation. freedom is a loose leash, license to be different from your mother and still be loved...freedom is...not insisting that your daughter share your limitations. freedom also means letting your daughter reject you when she needs to and come back when she needs to. freedom is unconditional love.

What i would like to give my daughter is freedom. and this is something that must be given by example, not by exhortation.

We should be licensing everybody with a gun. i have to have a license for my dog. i have to have a license for my car. if you’re going to do my hair later you have to have a license ... we don’t require a license to own a firearm?

The problems that exist on wall street today go to the center of a debate in this country about wealth and democracy. we cannot keep our democracy if those who are in charge of handling the engines of our economy are not honest with their shareholders. that's why there is a role for government regulation here. that role for government is breaking up the monopolies, insisting on public disclosure, insisting on public audits, insisting on restitution whenever someone has been cheated.

I love you also means i love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, i love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, i love you in a way that i love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.

Love is real, real is love, love is feeling, feeling love, love is wanting to be loved. love is touch, touch is love, love is reaching, reaching love, love is asking to be loved. love is you, you and me, love is knowing, we can be. love is free, free is love, love is living, living love, love is needing to be loved.

You must learn her. you must know the reason why she is silent. you must trace her weakest spots. you must write to her. you must remind her that you are there. you must know how long it takes for her to give up. you must be there to hold her when she is about to. you must love her because many have tried and failed. and she wants to know that she is worthy to be loved, that she is worthy to be kept. and, this is how you keep her.

Similar Quotes

Broken relationships are a source of heavy heartbreak that seem to affect every family.

We die to each other daily. what we know of other people is only our memory of the moments during which we knew them. and they have changed since then. to pretend that they and we are the same is a useful and convenient social convention which must sometimes be broken. we must also remember that at every meeting we are meeting a stranger.

Mothering/nurturing is a vital force and process establishing relationships throughout the universe.

Never part without loving words to think of during your absence. it may be that you will not meet again in this life.
