Famous quotes containing the word family:

    For most women who are considering it, single motherhood is not their first choice, but it’s not their last one either. They would prefer a husband in their family, but they’d rather have a family without one than no family at all.
    —Anne Cassidy. “Every Child Should Have a Father But....,” McCall’s (March 1985)

    The family is in flux, and signs of trouble are widespread. Expectations remain high. But realities are disturbing.
    Robert Neelly Bellah (20th century)

    The family: I believe more unhappiness comes from this source than from any other—I mean the attempt to prolong family connection unduly, and to make people hang together artificially who would never naturally do so.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
