Zitat des Tages über Bevorzugt / Preferred:

When I was a young boy, I preferred cats to dogs. From the age of seven or eight onwards I just felt more comfortable with cats.

It's one of the worst-kept secrets of family life that all parents have a preferred son or daughter, and the rules for acknowledging it are the same everywhere: The favored kids recognize their status and keep quiet about it - the better to preserve the good thing they've got going and to keep their siblings off their back.

Jeffrey Kluger

It took me some years to clear my head of what Paris wanted me to admire about it, and to notice what I preferred instead.
