Nobody, who has not been in the interior of a family, can say what the difficulties of any individual of that family may be.

In our family, as far as we are concerned, we were born and what happened before that is myth.

Motherhood is the strangest thing, it can be like being one’s own Trojan horse.

It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons.

My father! The sun is my father, and the earth is my mother, and on her bosom I will recline.

As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.

If parents would only realize how they bore their children!

The most socially subversive institution of our time is the one-parent family.

Few sons are equal to their fathers; most fall short, all too few surpass them. 

The thing that impresses me most about America is the way parents obey their children.

It is impossible to please all the world and one’s father.
