Famous quotes containing the word family:

    I can only sign over everything,
    the house, the dog, the ladders, the jewels,
    the soul, the family tree, the mailbox.
    Then I can sleep.
    Maybe.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    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 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)
