Quote by Elizabeth Hurley

I don't know much about only children. I was the middle one of three, and if ever I was alone with mum and dad, it was a rare moment.


I don't know much about only children. I was the middle one

Summary

The quote highlights the author's lack of knowledge and experience with only children. Being the middle child among three siblings, they were seldom in the company of just their parents. This suggests that they can't fully understand or relate to the experiences of being an only child, as their family dynamics were frequently occupied by the presence of siblings.

Une religion, par exemple, qui doit être transformée en savoir historique, une religion qui doit être étudiée de part en part scientifiquement, une fois cette étape franchie, sera par l? même détruite. Toute vérificatiuon historique amène au jour tant de choses fausses, grossières, inhumaines, absurdes, violentes que, forcément, se dissipe l'atmosphère d'illusion pieuse où tout ce qui a le désir de vivre peut seul prospérer.Deuxième Considération intempestive, ch. 7
