Famous quotes containing the word family:

    If a family lives in harmony, all its affairs will prosper.
    Chinese proverb.

    At best the family teaches the finest things human beings can learn from one another—generosity and love. But it is also, all too often, where we learn nasty things like hate, rage and shame.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (20th century)

    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)
