About this Quote

This quote by Gertrude Stein talks with the complicated connection in between siblings. It recommends that it is natural for brother or sisters to not constantly get on, which it is not unusual for one brother or sister to not care about the other. This is specifically real when there is a huge age void between them, as holds true in this quote. The reality that the older sis grinds her teeth in the evening could be an indication of her very own inner turmoil, which can be a contributing element to the absence of care between the two brother or sisters. Ultimately, this quote speaks with the reality that sibling connections can be made complex and that it is natural for brother or sisters to not always manage.
