Famous quotes containing the word family:

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

    “No wealth can buy the requisite leisure, freedom, and independence which are the capital in this profession. It comes only by the grace of God. It requires a direct dispensation from Heaven to become a walker. You must be born into the family of the Walkers. Ambulator nascitur, non fit.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
