“There's love for your parents, your family, your spouse, your partner, your friends, but the nature of the connection you have with your child, there's nothing like it. It has its own character and it's so serious and so powerful, and so it's a prism through which I see everything.”
Annette Bening

“Parents are the bone on which children sharpen their teeth.”
Peter Alexander Ustinov
