Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    My husband sings Baa Baa black sheep and we pretend
    that all’s certain and good, that the marriage won’t end.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    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)
