Famous quotes containing the words married, life and/or family:
“Single mothers have as much to teach their children as married mothers and as much love to share—maybe more. Yet their motives are often labeled selfish and single-minded—never mind all the babies brought into the world to snag husbands, “save” faltering marriages or produce heirs.”
—Anne Cassidy. “Every Child Should Have a Father But....,” McCall’s (March 1985)
“O! the one Life within us and abroad,”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
“With all the attention paid to your new baby, it’s easy for your own feelings and needs to get lost in the shuffle. Although all parents engage in some self-sacrifice for their children, keep in mind that your goal isn’t just to raise a happy, healthy child. You want that child to be part of a happy, healthy family as well.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
