“Let your children go if you want to keep them.”

“You want to protect you children, don't you? You let them out of your body but you never let them all the way out.”

“If you want your children to improve, let them overhear the nice things you say about them to others.”

“Keep following your dreams and never let go when you achieve them.”

“Let your children see you kiss. Let them see you embrace. Let them overhear your teasing, your gentle rebukes, even your well-intentioned jealousy. Domestic courtship reinforces the notion that people are together because they want to be together, not because it is the decent, practical thing to do.”

“When you find someone you want to spend forever with you, you don't let them go, whether forever turns out to be a day or a year of fifty years. Don't let the fear of losing them keep you from loving them.”
