Secret Values

Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or values:

    I am going to my own hearthstone,
    Bosom’d in yon green hills alone—
    A secret nook in a pleasant land,
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    To be faced with what so-and-so’s mother lets him do, or what the teacher said in class today or what all the kids are wearing is to be required to reexamine some part of our belief structure. Each time we rethink our values we reaffirm them or begin to change them. Seen in this way, parenthood affords us an exceptional opportunity for growth.
    Ruth Davidson Bell (20th century)
