This quote highlights the often grim reality of individual achievement versus familial reputation. It underscores how reliance on a family name or legacy may not guarantee success or open doors in life. Personal merit, effort, and skills become crucial factors in shaping one’s future. The statement also reflects a sense of independence and perhaps frustration regarding societal perceptions tied to family lineage. It encourages a focus on personal growth rather than legacy, emphasizing that true progress comes from one's own endeavors rather than inherited status.

Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better. If you decide that the wanting truth's more important than the hating truth, just tell her you've forgiven her, even if you haven't. At least she'd feel better. Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

To belong did not mean ownership. You were not someone's property. The be syllable was about existence: to be yourself and to be in a special place that no one else could occupy within your family except you.

To belong was not a state of mind but a state of heart. — Kathryn Lasky Memoirs of a...

{Mom} said she didn't want her youngest daughter dressed in the thrift-store clothes the rest of us wore. Mom told us we would have to go shoplifting. Isn't that a sin? I asked Mom.
