About This Quote
I have never bought into the idea that blood is thicker than water. Love and respect are meant to be earned from our children, our spouses, our families, and our friends. The idea of blood being thicker than water is a very old and popular phrase. The phrase means that even though you come from different families or even different species, people can still learn to love and respect each other for who they are as individuals.
When two people love each other and respect each other beyond their differences, there is nothing that can keep them apart. There is no such thing as blood being thicker than water.
