—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“Everything in the world displeases me: but, above all, my displeasure in everything displeases me.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Sisters define their rivalry in terms of competition for the gold cup of parental love. It is never perceived as a cup which runneth over, rather a finite vessel from which the more one sister drinks, the less is left for the others.”
