Famous quotes containing the words family and/or names:

“I swear ... to hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture.”

The people who own them seem rock-true and marvelously self-sufficient.”
