Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “Respectable means rich, and decent means poor. I should die if I heard my family called decent.”
    —Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)

    “—the dark ajar, the rocks breaking with light,
    and undisturbed, unbreathing flame,
    colorless, sparkless, freely fed on straw,
    and, lulled within, a family with pets,
    —and looked and looked our infant sight away.”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    “It is as when a migrating army of mice girdles a forest of pines. The chopper fells trees from the same motive that the mouse gnaws them,—to get his living. You tell me that he has a more interesting family than the mouse. That is as it happens.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
