Famous quotes containing the word family:

    The family story tells, and it was told true,
    of my great-grandfather who begat eight
    genius children and bought twelve almost new
    grand pianos. He left a considerable estate
    when he died.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Family values are a little like family vacations—subject to changeable weather and remembered more fondly with the passage of time. Though it rained all week at the beach, it’s often the momentary rainbows that we remember.
    Leslie Dreyfous (20th century)

    Nor does the family even move about together,
    But every son would have his motor cycle,
    And daughters ride away on casual pillions.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
