Famous quotes containing the words language and/or families:

    Consensus is usually made possible by vague language and shallow commitments.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    We are born into them, marry into them, even create them among the people we love. They come large and extended...or small and nuclear. But whatever their size or wherever they live, strong families give us the nurturance and strength we need in order to survive.
    Andrea Davis (20th century)
