Famous quotes containing the word family:

    Chant lessons and your family will prosper; drunken ditties will lead you to ruin.
    Chinese proverb.

    In the middle classes the gifted son of a family is always the poorest—usually a writer or artist with no sense for speculation—and in a family of peasants, where the average comfort is just over penury, the gifted son sinks also, and is soon a tramp on the roadside.
    —J.M. (John Millington)

    I think the ideal situation for a family is to be completely incestuous.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)
