Famous quotes containing the words family and/or tree:
“Being so wrong about her makes me wonder now how often I am utterly wrong about myself. And how wrong she might have been about her mother, how wrong he might have been about his father, how much of family life is a vast web of misunderstandings, a tinted and touched-up family portrait, an accurate representation of fact that leaves out only the essential truth.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“On a tree by a river a little tom-tit
Sang Willow, titwillow, titwillow!
And I said to him, Dicky-bird, why do you sit
Singing, Willow, titwillow, titwillow?
Is it a weakness of intellect, birdie? I cried,
Or a rather tough worm in your little inside?”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (18361911)
