Famous quotes containing the words family, core and/or differences:

    Providing for one’s family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for “doing the best” for his children?
    Eva Figes (b. 1932)

    It is possible to have a strong self-love without any self-satisfaction, rather with a self-discontent which is the more intense because one’s own little core of egoistic sensibility is a supreme care.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    What we have to do ... is to find a way to celebrate our diversity and debate our differences without fracturing our communities.
    Hillary Rodham Clinton (b. 1947)
