Famous quotes containing the word family:

    A fellow oughtn’t to let his family property go to pieces.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    When a family is free of abuse and oppression, it can be the place where we share our deepest secrets and stand the most exposed, a place where we learn to feel distinct without being “better,” and sacrifice for others without losing ourselves.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    Of all the vices, lewdness is the worst; of all the virtues, family duty is the first.
    —Chinese proverb.
