Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “Providing for one’s family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for “doing the best” for his children?”
    —Eva Figes (b. 1932)

    “The American father ... is never seen in London. He passes his life entirely in Wall Street and communicates with his family once a month by means of a telegram in cipher.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “My Friend is not of some other race or family of men, but flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone. He is my real brother.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
