Tweetable Quotes:

“Sometimes, we don't like to listen to our parents just because they're our parents, so having somebody else that either you might respect or that's maybe a little bit distance from you influence you in some certain way, you might be more reciprocal to that and you might actually listen more.” - Benjamin Zelenka
