Jimmy Carter - Marriage and Family

Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

“the marriage twists, holds firm, a sailor’s knot.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
