I stopped reading movie magazines in the beauty parlor a couple of years ago because I could not accommodate any more information ...about something called the Lennon Sisters.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Sisters are always drying their hair. Locked into rooms, alone,... They pose at the mirror, shoulders bare, Trying this way and that their hair, Or fly importunate down the stair To answer the telephone.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
It is with our brothers and sisters that we learn to love, share, negotiate, start and end fights, hurt others, and save face. The... basis of healthy (or unhealthy) connections in adulthood is cast during childhood.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The quickness with which all the "stuff" from childhood can reduce adult siblings to kids again underscores the strong and complex... connections between brothers and sisters.... It doesn't seem to matter how much time has elapsed or how far we've traveled. Our brothers and sisters bring us face to face with our former selves and remind us how intricately bound up we are in each other's lives.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Whether changes in the sibling relationship during adolescence create long-term rifts that spill over into adulthood depends upon ...the ability of brothers and sisters to constantly redefine their connection. Siblings either learn to accept one another as independent individuals with their own sets of values and behaviors or cling to the shadow of the brother and sister they once knew.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the sc...riptures, and that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. For I am the least of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I. Are they ministers of Christ? I... am talking like a madman -I am a better one: with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless floggings, and often near death. Five times I have received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I received a stoning. Three times I was shipwrecked; for a night and a day I was adrift at sea; on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from bandits, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers and sisters; in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, hungry and thirsty, often without food, cold and naked. And, besides other things, I am under daily pressure because of my anxiety for all the churches.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Now I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you be in agreement and that there be... no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same purpose.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
