Famous quotes containing the word families:
“Family jokes, though rightly cursed by strangers, are the bond that keeps most families alive.”
—Stella Benson (1892–1933)
“Women have entered the work force . . . partly to express their feelings of self-worth . . . partly because today many families would not survive without two incomes, partly because they are not at all sure their marriages will last. The day of the husband as permanent meal-ticket is over, a fact most women recognize, however they feel about “women’s liberation.””
—Robert Neelly Bellah (20th century)
