Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again.... We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.
    Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)

    For every family had one cat at least in the bag.
    Christopher Smart (1722–1771)
