Partridge Family

Famous quotes containing the words partridge and/or family:

    The first day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    A partridge in a pear tree.
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 1–3)

    I worry about people who get born nowadays, because they get born into such tiny families—sometimes into no family at all. When you’re the only pea in the pod, your parents are likely to get you confused with the Hope Diamond. And that encourages you to talk too much.
    Russell Baker (b. 1925)
