Closer

Famous quotes containing the word closer:

    Some friends play at friendship but a true friend sticks closer than one’s nearest kin.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 18:24.

    If you expect complete honesty, you’ll be disappointed. And don’t expect gratitude for your parenting efforts. Do expect that you’ll feel like you’re on a yo-yo—intimate with your child one day, distant the next. As long as she’s safe, don’t invade her world. Remember: most teens end up being closer to their parents after adolescence than they were before.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    Oh! for a closer walk with God,
    A calm and heav’nly frame;
    A light to shine upon the road
    That leads me to the Lamb!
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
