“The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents.”
“Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent.”
“She hated being a nobody and like all children, adopted or not, I have had to live out some of her unlived life. We do that for our parents - we don't really have any choice.”
“Life's greatest tragedy is not that it will someday end, but that most only live to follow directions and sometimes we end up totally lost.”
“The unexamined life is not worth living, but the unlived life is not worth examining.”
“I like having options, alternate lives unlived but always possible.”
