    “Family life may survive as a form of evening and weekend entertainment.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “I looked at my daughters, and my boyhood picture, and appreciated the gift of parenthood, at that moment, more than any other gift I have ever been given. For what person, except one’s own children, would want so deeply and sincerely to have shared your childhood? Who else would think your insignificant and petty life so precious in the living, so rich in its expressiveness, that it would be worth partaking of what you were, to understand what you are?”
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    “Freud is all nonsense; the secret of neurosis is to be found in the family battle of wills to see who can refuse longest to help with the dishes. The sink is the great symbol of the bloodiness of family life.”
    —Julian Mitchell (20th century)

    “The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them up.”
    —Dorothy Day (1897–1980)
