Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or family:

    The humanity of famous intellectuals lies in being wrong with gracious courtesy when dealing with those who are not famous.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Family lore can be a bore, but only when you are hearing it, never when you are relating it to the ones who will be carrying it on for you. A family without a storyteller or two has no way to make sense out of their past and no way to get a sense of themselves.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)
