Famous quotes containing the word family:

    Public employment contributes neither to advantage nor happiness. It is but honorable exile from one’s family and affairs.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    It is as when a migrating army of mice girdles a forest of pines. The chopper fells trees from the same motive that the mouse gnaws them,—to get his living. You tell me that he has a more interesting family than the mouse. That is as it happens.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    One banquet in a rich family could feed a poor man’s family for half a year.
    Chinese proverb.
