- It is the caring and sharing that count—love is not prevented by the things and the time that you haven’t shared.
- Claudia Jewett Jarrett, Adopting the Older Child, 1978
- One of the common causes of serious difficulty takes the form of parental self-discovery. The newly adopted child brings out submerged feelings or behavior in his parents that make them dislike themselves.

- Claudia Jewett Jarrett, Adopting the Older Child, 1978
- Everything is a drug. Family, art, causes, new shoes... We're all just tweaking our chem to avoid the void.
