Family Deity

Famous quotes containing the words family and/or deity:

“Children should know there are limits to family finances or they will confuse “we can’t afford that” with “they don’t want me to have it.” The first statement is a realistic and objective assessment of a situation, while the other carries an emotional message.”
—Jean Ross Peterson (20th century)

“Dog. A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch the overflow and surplus of the world’s worship.”
