Famous quotes containing the words authentic and/or person:
“The tension to mother the “right” way can leave a peculiar silence within mother daughter relationships—the silence of a mother’s own truth and experience. Within this silence, a daughter’s authentic voice can also fall silent. This is the silence of perfection. This silence of perfection prevents mothers from listening and learning from their daughters.”
—Elizabeth Debold (20th century)
“When a leopard dies, it leaves its skin; when a person dies, he leaves his reputation.”
—Chinese proverb.
