Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    Divorce is probably of nearly the same date as marriage. I believe, however, that marriage is some weeks the more ancient.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    I worry about people who get born nowadays, because they get born into such tiny families—sometimes into no family at all. When you’re the only pea in the pod, your parents are likely to get you confused with the Hope Diamond. And that encourages you to talk too much.
    Russell Baker (b. 1925)
