Famous quotes containing the word family:

    If we can find a principle to guide us in the handling of the child between nine and eighteen months, we can see that we need to allow enough opportunity for handling and investigation of objects to further intellectual development and just enough restriction required for family harmony and for the safety of the child.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)

    O God, and the wedding! All her family and her friends
    and only a handful of mine all scroungy and bearded
    just wait to get at the drinks and food—
    Gregory Corso (b. 1930)

    The same dreadful set,
    the same family of orange and pink faces
    carved and dressed up like puppets
    who wait for their jaws to open and shut.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
