Famous quotes containing the words birth and/or family:
“When I read of the vain discussions of the present day about the Virgin Birth and other old dogmas which belong to the past, I feel how great the need is still of a real interest in the religion which builds up character, teaches brotherly love, and opens up to the seeker such a world of usefulness and the beauty of holiness.”
—Olympia Brown (1835–1900)
“A fellow oughtn’t to let his family property go to pieces.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
