Famous quotes containing the words intensity and/or conflict:
“As siblings we were inextricably bound, even though our connections were loose and frayed....

No matter how old we got or how often we tried to show another face, reality was filtered through yesterday’s memories.”
—Jane Mersky Leder (20th century)
“The conflict between the need to belong to a group and the need to be seen as unique and individual is the dominant struggle of adolescence.”
