Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “There was books too.... One was “Pilgrim’s Progress,” about a man that left his family it didn’t say why. I read considerable in it now and then. The statements was interesting, but tough.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Like plowing, housework makes the ground ready for the germination of family life. The kids will not invite a teacher home if beer cans litter the living room. The family isn’t likely to have breakfast together if somebody didn’t remember to buy eggs, milk, or muffins. Housework maintains an orderly setting in which family life can flourish.”
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    “It is turning three hundred years
    On our cisatlantic shore
    For family after family name.
    We’ll make it three hundred more”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
