Famous quotes containing the word family:

    We all of us waited for him to die. The family sent him a cheque every month, and hoped he’d get on with it quietly, without too much vulgar fuss.
    John Osborne (b. 1929)

    I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage, with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post which any human power can give.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    The family is in flux, and signs of trouble are widespread. Expectations remain high. But realities are disturbing.
    Robert Neelly Bellah (20th century)
