Famous quotes containing the words family members, family and/or members:

    What we often take to be family values—the work ethic, honesty, clean living, marital fidelity, and individual responsibility—are in fact social, religious, or cultural values. To be sure, these values are transmitted by parents to their children and are familial in that sense. They do not, however, originate within the family. It is the value of close relationships with other family members, and the importance of these bonds relative to other needs.
    David Elkind (20th century)

    Family living can go on existing. Very many are
    remembering this thing are remembering that family
    living living can go on existing. Very many are quite
    certain that family living can go on existing. Very
    many are remembering that they are quite certain that
    family living can go on existing.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 12:12.
