Radiance Values

Famous quotes containing the words radiance and/or values:

    Miracles occur,
    if you care to call those spasmodic
    Tricks of radiance miracles. The wait’s begun again,
    The long wait for the angel,
    For that rare, random descent.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    What we often take to be family values—the work ethic, honesty, clean living, marital fidelity, and individual responsibility—are in fact social, religious, or cultural values. To be sure, these values are transmitted by parents to their children and are familial in that sense. They do not, however, originate within the family. It is the value of close relationships with other family members, and the importance of these bonds relative to other needs.
    David Elkind (20th century)
