Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or family:

    “Thrift, thrift, Horatio, the funeral baked meats
    Did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.”
    —Jeanne Elium (20th century)
