Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “The family is on its way out; couples go next; then no more keeping cats or parrots.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Children should know there are limits to family finances or they will confuse “we can’t afford that” with “they don’t want me to have it.” The first statement is a realistic and objective assessment of a situation, while the other carries an emotional message.”
    —Jean Ross Peterson (20th century)

    “We all of us waited for him to die. The family sent him a cheque every month, and hoped he’d get on with it quietly, without too much vulgar fuss.”
    —John Osborne (b. 1929)
