Quote by Chaim Potok
All of us grow up in particular realities - a home, family, a clan

All of us grow up in particular realities – a home, family, a clan, a small town, a neighborhood. Depending upon how were brought up, we are either deeply aware of the particular reading of reality into which we are born, or we are peripherally aware of it. – Chaim Potok
