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.

    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)

    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)
