Quote by Lucille Ball

You see much more of your children once they leave home.

You see much more of your children once they leave home.

Summary

This quote suggests that once children grow up and leave home, parents are able to observe and understand their children's true nature and personality better. It implies that while living under the same roof, parents may not notice or fully appreciate their children's individuality and growth. However, once they are independent and away from home, parents get to witness their children in a new light, appreciating their experiences, and personal development. It highlights the idea that distance and separation can sometimes enhance understanding and bond between parents and grown-up children.

A science only advances with certainty, when the plan of inquiry and the object of our researches have been clearly defined; otherwise a small number of truths are loosely laid hold of, without their connexion being perceived, and numerous errors, without being enabled to detect their fallacy.

In a swamp, as in meditation, you begin to glimpse how elusive, how inherently insubstantial, how fleeting our thoughts are, our identities. There is magic in this moist world, in how the mind lets go, slips into sleepy water, circles and nuzzles the banks of palmetto and wild iris, how it seeps across dreams, smears them into the upright world, rots the wood of treasure chests, welcomes the body home.
