Every adolescent has that dream every century has that dream every revolutionary has that dream, to destroy the family.  

To be a successful father… there’s one absolute rule: when you have a kid, don’t look at it for the first two years.

It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself… it seems unfair. You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do—or don’t do.

If parents would only realize how they bore their children!

The family is the test of freedom; because the family is the only thing that the free man makes for himself and by himself.

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

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

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

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

Mother died today. Or maybe it was yesterday, I don’t know.
