• We strive to make our children independent because we have nothing to offer them. But what is their independence if not chaos? What we must do is make them entirely dependent, dependent upon the dictates of the good. And we must make ourselves examples of that good to them so that dependence upon us is the greatest gift they know; so that in being dependent upon us, they are independent of evil. If we do this, our children will feel, not that they are dependent upon us, but that they depend upon us.
