Geschwister / Sibling Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Geschwister / Sibling:

I had a really happy childhood - my siblings were great, my mother was very fanciful, and I loved to read. But there was always financial strife. Patti Smith

I have five siblings, so my mom was always pregnant, and she would wear these dungarees that looked so cool.

Liberty Ross

Certainly, people can get along without siblings. Single children do, and there are people who have irreparably estranged relationships with their siblings who live full and satisfying lives, but to have siblings and not make the most of that resource is squandering one of the greatest interpersonal resources you'll ever have.

Jeffrey Kluger

I am a first-generation college graduate, and I'm proud to say that most of my other siblings have college degrees as well. Our parents taught us to work hard and never forget our family roots, where we came from, and how much effort it took to get to where we are today.

Oscar Munoz

I started listening to a lot of Jimi Hendrix and Neil Young when I was 8 or 9 years old - I had siblings that gave me good music instead of the crap that was on the radio in the '90s.

Eliot Sumner

We have created a new demonstration program to allow families with a sick child who could be helped with a cord blood transplant from a sibling to bank cord blood from newborns should they decide to have another child.

Nathan Deal

Sometimes siblings can get in each other's space.

Gisele Bundchen

Once you've taken account of the quality of sibling relationships, knowing about the quality of parenting doesn't add much information.

Robert J. Waldinger

If you want to do really important things in life and big things in life, you can't do anything by yourself. And your best teams are your friends and your siblings.

Deepak Chopra

Friends are the siblings God never gave us.

Mencius

Comparison is a death knell to sibling harmony.

Elizabeth Fishel

The big things in the average person's life are the romances that they have - and then the destruction and loss of them. Parents, siblings, children, the death of parents, family tension... these are monumental things. They struck me as being interesting to write about. I didn't have a very exotic life, but all this stuff happened to me.

Loudon Wainwright III

I don't have siblings, which is probably the biggest reason why my parents were able to give the attention to my career that they did.

Christine Lakin

My parents both came to the United States from the Dominican Republic, and they were deeply grateful for the opportunities this country provided. They raised my siblings and me to want to make a difference and give back. They taught us to work hard and aim high, but to also make sure the ladder was down to help others climb up.

Tom Perez

Mysteries and thrillers are not the same things, though they are literary siblings. Roughly put, I would say the distinction is that mysteries emphasize motive and psychology whereas thrillers rely more heavily on action and plot.

Jon Meacham

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

My parents were liberal intellectuals but even they expected me to stay at home and look after my younger siblings and do the housework.

Sara Paretsky

All of my friends who have younger siblings who are going to college or high school - my number one piece of advice is: You should learn how to program.

Mark Zuckerberg

The counter-argument would be, so what if my sexual relationships are superficial, one can still have satisfying and rewarding relationships with friends, or parents, or siblings, or whatever.

Chester Brown

My love for cooking began when I was young. Because my parents were in the army, they were both really busy. A lot of times I'd have to cook for the family; I'd rotate with my siblings. It started out as a chore, but as I got older, my mom started to see that I was really good at it. I became her sous chef.

Tia Mowry

I recalled how a lot of my older siblings would go to a friend's house and borrow records to play and sometimes borrow a turntable because we didn't have a turntable in the house until I was 8, about the same time we had a TV.

Patty Loveless

I had this odd sibling rivalry with America.

Patti Davis

The idea of your younger sibling being in pain and realizing you are the cause of that pain is unbearable.

Claire Foy

You just have to be very humble if America has really worked for you like it has for me. Most of my friends are poor. Most of my siblings are poor. I see how hard it is just to get money unless you've got some incredible luck or work incredibly hard. I want everyone to do well. I wish 'Wayne's World' money on you!

Dana Carvey

In some ways, siblings, and especially sisters, are more influential in your childhood than your parents.

Deborah Tannen

I enjoyed my upbringing, my siblings did, we're polite, we're respectful, but at the end of the day we're young, we like to have fun. But now, more so than ever, the youth has been vilified to the point where it feels like you can't enjoy being young any more, you just have to sit it out and wait until you get old.

Tinie Tempah

I have three younger siblings, so the four of us were outside all the time after school playing games, making up games. My sister made up a game called 'roof ball.' We'd play that constantly. She always beat me in it, and it made me very mad. But we were outside all the time.

Andrew Luck

Broad-mindedness is related to tolerance; open-mindedness is the sibling of peace.

I'm the youngest of four, but my closest sibling is 10 years older. I had a lot of imagination. I was running around playing little games by myself. But I never thought I was going to be an actor.

Daniel Breaker

Whenever there was a show like 'Calamity Jane,' me and my siblings would be plonked on stage in a costume because it was easier to have us in it rather than sort out babysitters.

Katherine Kelly

I would ask my parents something, but then go to my siblings. We were encouraged to bounce ideas off everyone.

Ahmet Zappa

With a diplomat father, for whom foreign postings were a fact of life, my siblings and I were expected to attend boarding schools in Britain.

Arabella Weir

If one sibling does something, the other will fill the opposite role. I found, at least for my brother and I in real life, that seems to be a thing.

Alycia Debnam-Carey

I grew up with an older brother, and the bond between siblings is unlike anything else, and it can be a real journey to accept what that bond is once you both mature into it. Because it's not always what you want. It's not always what you expect. It's not always what you imagined or hoped. But it's one of the most important things in the world.

Ben Schnetzer

We grew up in a very demanding environment. Dad expects us to prove ourselves... so my siblings and I worked hard to reach what we have today, and I guess we have to continue working hard to maintain it.

Teresita Sy-Coson

I'm lucky because I have a job I love. I really miss being away from home, being in my own bed, seeing my animals and siblings, having my moms cookies. I have a couple cats. I got a kitten about a year ago and now Im going on the road so I wont see him for a while. I feel bad.

Michelle Branch

Ramona was originally an accidental character I added to the Henry Huggins books because I noticed that none of the characters had siblings. I added Ramona as Beazus' pestering little sister.
