Famous quotes containing the word family:

—Joyce Portner (late 20th century)

—Jackie Torrence (b. 1944)
“Some [adolescent] girls are depressed because they have lost their warm, open relationship with their parents. They have loved and been loved by people whom they now must betray to fit into peer culture.

—Mary Pipher (20th century)
