Famous quotes containing the word family:

    Our society is not a community, but merely a collection of isolated family units.
    Valerie Solanas (b. 1940)

    I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage, with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post which any human power can give.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Because it’s not only that a child is inseparable from the family in which he lives, but that the lives of families are determined by the community in which they live and the cultural tradition from which they come.
    Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
