Famous quotes containing the word family:

    —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)

    The agent’s steep and steady stare
    Corroded to a grin.
    Why, you black old, tough old hell of a man,
    Move your family in!
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    There are one or two rules,
    Half-a-dozen, maybe,
    That all family fools,
    Of whatever degree,
    Must observe if they love their profession.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
