Families, I hate you! Shut-in homes, closed doors, jealous possessions of happiness.

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

The root of the kingdom is in the State. The root of the State is in the family. The root of the family is in the person of its Head.

By and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class.

Every man sees in his relatives, and especially in his cousins, a series of grotesque caricatures of himself.

The greatest thing in family life is to take a hint when a hint is intended—and not to take a hint when a hint isn’t intended.

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

Again, men in general desire the good, and not merely what their fathers had.

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

Men are what their mothers made them.

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