When she was young, she thought he was old, and now that he was old, Alice realized how young he’d been. Perspective was unfair.
Emma Straub, This Time Tomorrow

Judy Cornish
Offering care means being a companion, not a superior. It doesn’t matter whether the person we are caring for is experiencing cancer, the flu, dementia, or grief. If you are a doctor or surgeon, your expertise and knowledge comes from a superior position. But when our role is to be providers of care, we should be there as equals.
Judy Cornish, The Dementia Handbook: How to Provide Dementia Care at Home
