Famous quotes containing the word family:
“You can read the best experts on child care. You can listen to those who have been there. You can take a whole childbirth and child-care course without missing a lesson. But you wont really know a thing about yourselves and each other as parents, or your baby as a child, until you have her in your arms. Thats the moment when the lifelong process of bringing up a child into the fold of the family begins.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
“If a family lives in harmony, all its affairs will prosper.”
—Chinese proverb.
“A family with an old person has a living treasure of gold.”
—Chinese proverb.
