Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “A poem is like a person. Though it has a family tree, it is important not because of its ancestors but because of its individuality. The poem, like any human being, is something more than its most complete analysis. Like any human being, it gives a sense of unified individuality which no summary of its qualities can reproduce; and at the same time a sense of variety which is beyond satisfactory final analysis.”
    —Donald Stauffer (b. 1930)

    “For every family had one cat at least in the bag.”
    —Christopher Smart (1722–1771)

    “For most women who are considering it, single motherhood is not their first choice, but it’s not their last one either. They would prefer a husband in their family, but they’d rather have a family without one than no family at all.”
    —Anne Cassidy. “Every Child Should Have a Father But....,” McCall’s (March 1985)
