"Family quarrels have a total bitterness unmatched by others. Yet it sometimes happens that they also have a kind of tang, a pleasantness beneath the unpleasantness, based on the tacit understanding that this is not for keeps; that any limb you climb out on will still be there later for you to climb back.”
~ Mignon McLaughlin

“Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go by any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material.”
- F. Scott Fitzgerald

Oh how I love these quotes. I am writing a story about family quarrels so I very much appreciate these words. Enough said indeed :)
