Call Identity

Famous quotes containing the words call and/or identity:

    DEAR WALDO,—For I think I have heard that that is your name.... Whatever I may call you, I know you better than I know your name.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Personal change, growth, development, identity formation—these tasks that once were thought to belong to childhood and adolescence alone now are recognized as part of adult life as well. Gone is the belief that adulthood is, or ought to be, a time of internal peace and comfort, that growing pains belong only to the young; gone the belief that these are marker events—a job, a mate, a child—through which we will pass into a life of relative ease.
    Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
