Lane Family

Famous quotes containing the words lane and/or family:

    “The question is whether personal freedom is worth the terrible effort, the never-lifted burden and risks of self-reliance.”
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    “My ambition for station was always easily controlled. If the place came to me it was welcome. But it never seemed to me worth seeking at the cost of self-respect, or independence. My family were not historic; they were well-to-do, did not hold or seek office. It was easy for me to be contented in private life. An honor was no honor to me, if obtained by my own seeking.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
