“Having a talk was another buzzword phrase in our house, one that meant something was wrong. More often than not their talks we're controlled arguments that generally centered on housework (laundry piles still on the dining room table!) or the handling of us girls. Revelations gleaned in a typical talk: Dad didn't like the condescending tone Mom often used with is; Mom didn't like his yelling and its wildly inconst usage; Dad thought she was too quick to punish; Mom didn't like having her discipline edicts questioned in front of us. Initially acrimonious, their talks somehow managed to end like a pregame pep talk: rote promises to be rational in the face of our irrationality, a renewed commitment to present a united front, team play, then hands in the middle: Go, parents on three, ready, break!”

“It's a funny world we live in, When we are young, we pretend to be old. When we are old, we pretend to be young. When we are home, we want to see the world. When on the road, we want to get home. We are never happy at the moment, we like to admire the idea of happiness. We like to worship it from afar, real happiness is fraught with troubles.”
