Famous quotes containing the word family:
“I acknowledge that the balance I have achieved between work and family roles comes at a cost, and every day I must weigh whether I live with that cost happily or guiltily, or whether some other lifestyle entails trade-offs I might accept more readily.

—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“Govern a small family as you would cook a small fish, very gently.”
—(20th century)
