    The Golden Rule of Parenting is: Do unto your children as you wish your parents had done unto you!
    —Louise Hart (20th century)

    A face is too slight a foundation for happiness.
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)

    Our ego ideal is precious to us because it repairs a loss of our earlier childhood, the loss of our image of self as perfect and whole, the loss of a major portion of our infantile, limitless, ain’t-I-wonderful narcissism which we had to give up in the face of compelling reality. Modified and reshaped into ethical goals and moral standards and a vision of what at our finest we might be, our dream of perfection lives on—our lost narcissism lives on—in our ego ideal.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)
