Famous quotes containing the word family:

    “Like all the best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.”
    —Elizabeth II (b. 1926)

    “O God, and the wedding! All her family and her friends
    and only a handful of mine all scroungy and bearded
    just wait to get at the drinks and food—”
    —Gregory Corso (b. 1930)

    “The son will run away from the family not at eighteen but at twelve, emancipated by his gluttonous precocity; he will fly not to seek heroic adventures, not to deliver a beautiful prisoner from a tower, not to immortalize a garret with sublime thoughts, but to found a business, to enrich himself and to compete with his infamous papa.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–67)
