"Frankly I’m fairly boring or fairly busy. Between writing and family, I have little time for anything else."― Harlan Coben Topic(s): FamilyMore From Harlan Coben"If I’m not writing well, I’m not happy. If I’m not spending enough time with my family, I’m not happy. If I’m not connecting to friends or if I don’t work out enough… You get the point. Everything has to be balanced. Nothing should be an extreme.""Tragedy is a hell of a teacher. It’s much too strict, but it’s a hell of a teacher.""Make no mistake, adolescence is a war. No one gets out unscathed."More In Family"When we’re dealing with the people in our family – no matter how annoying or gross they may be, no matter how self-inflicted their suffering may appear, no matter how afflicted they are with ignorance, prejudice or nose hairs – we give from the deepest parts of ourselves."― Anne Lamott"We will strengthen our security by building missile defense, restoring our military might, and standing by and strengthening our intelligence officers."― Mitt Romney"I grew up in a family where the internalized understanding was that the kids were going to grow up into a better world. I worry, because I don’t think my kids are going to have that. The world is very scary. The world would be scary without the choices the current administration made, but they just exacerbated it. And it ticks me off. I want my kids to have a good life."― Bradley Whitford
