Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “Anytime we react to behavior in our children that we dislike in ourselves, we need to proceed with extreme caution. The dynamics of everyday family life also have a way of repeating themselves.”
    —Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)

    “I am the family face;
    Flesh perishes, I live on,
    Projecting trait and trace
    Through time to times anon,
    And leaping from place to place
    Over oblivion.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “The family story tells, and it was told true,
    of my great-grandfather who begat eight
    genius children and bought twelve almost new
    grand pianos. He left a considerable estate
    when he died.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
