Famous quotes containing the word family:

    As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.
    John Paul II [Karol Wojtyla] (b. 1920)

    The same dreadful set,
    the same family of orange and pink faces
    carved and dressed up like puppets
    who wait for their jaws to open and shut.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The value of a family is that it cushions and protects while the individual is learning ways of coping. And a supportive social system provides the same kind of cushioning for the family as a whole.
    Michael W. Yogman, and T. Berry Brazelton (20th century)
