Famous quotes containing the words family and/or friends:
“If family communication is good, parents can pick up the signs of stress in children and talk about it before it results in some crisis. If family communication is bad, not only will parents be insensitive to potential crises, but the poor communication will contribute to problems in the family.”
—Donald C. Medeiros (20th century)
“The lack of closeness among friends is a fault that cannot be reprimanded without becoming incurable.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
