    “The long discussions and painful arguments of adolescence and the fierce loyalties to teachers, heroes, and gurus during the teenage years are simply our children’s struggles to ensure that the lifestyles and values they adopt are worthy of their allegiance.”

    “Time now to pack this humpty-dumpty
    back the frightened way she came
    and run alongnne, and run along now,
    my stomach laced up like a football
    for the game.”
