“As children we strive to be who our parents want us to be. As youths we strive to be who our peers want us to be. As adults we strive to be who the state thinks we should be. As parents we strive to be who our children need us to be. In the end we are nothing, hollow echoes of need built on the perceptions of others.” — Michael R. Fletcher
