Famous quotes containing the words call and/or identity:

“That was the most horrible day of my detention. The whole day I could see my baby’s face and wanted to call her name, “Dudu,” “Dudu,” but my mind was blank. I couldn’t recollect it. “Can a mother forget her baby’s name?” I wondered.”
—Emma Mashinini (b. 1929)

“The adolescent does not develop her identity and individuality by moving outside her family. She is not triggered by some magic unconscious dynamic whereby she rejects her family in favour of her peers or of a larger society.... She continues to develop in relation to her parents. Her mother continues to have more influence over her than either her father or her friends.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
