Emotional Feeling State

Famous quotes containing the words emotional, feeling and/or state:

    “Compared to other parents, remarried parents seem more desirous of their child’s approval, more alert to the child’s emotional state, and more sensitive in their parent-child relations. Perhaps this is the result of heightened empathy for the child’s suffering, perhaps it is a guilt reaction; in either case, it gives the child a potent weapon—the power to disrupt the new household and come between parent and the new spouse.”
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    “You have another little drink, and I’ll have another little drink, and maybe we can work up some real family feeling here.”
    —Irving Ravetch (b. 1920)

    “Inferiors revolt in order that they may be equal, and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions.”
    —Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
