Famous quotes containing the word family:

    Blackmail is one of the great pastimes of family life.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    It is as when a migrating army of mice girdles a forest of pines. The chopper fells trees from the same motive that the mouse gnaws them,—to get his living. You tell me that he has a more interesting family than the mouse. That is as it happens.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The same dreadful set,
    the same family of orange and pink faces
    carved and dressed up like puppets
    who wait for their jaws to open and shut.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
