“I sustain myself with the love of family.”
― Maya Angelou

“Through the blur, I wondered if I was alone or if other parents felt the same way I did - that everything involving our children was painful in some way. The emotions, whether they were joy, sorrow, love or pride, were so deep and sharp that in the end they left you raw, exposed and yes, in pain. The human heart was not designed to beat outside the human body and yet, each child represented just that - a parent's heart bared, beating forever outside its chest.”
― Debra Ginsberg

“Do you think anger is a sincere emotion or the timid motion of a fragile heart trying to beat away its pain?”
― Andrea Gibson

“One thing you can't hide - is when you're crippled inside.”
― John Lennon
