So, you just have to make that judgment and if you feel in the mood to do it.

Russell Westbrook

There's a lot of psychological material that you inherit from your family.

If you live in a material universe where acquiring things is very important to you, then family is an absolute deterrent to maintaining that sort of a world, because family involves values like affection, and sympathy, and passion, and types of pleasure that lead nowhere in a material sense.
