Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:
“the mother lies down on her marriage bed
and eats up her heart like two eggs.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Unfortunately, life may sometimes seem unfair to middle children, some of whom feel like an afterthought to a brilliant older sibling and unable to captivate the familys attention like the darling baby.

—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
