Famous quotes containing the words family and/or life:
“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)
“All life long, the same questions, the same answers.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
