Family

You leave home to seek your fortune and, when you get it, you go home and share it with your family.
- Baker, Anita
Family Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Family

1.
Parents and children seldom act in concert: each child endeavors to appropriate the esteem or fondness of the parents, and the parents, with yet less temptation, betray each other to their children.
Johnson, Samuel

2.
I can't think of anything to write about except families. They are a metaphor for every other part of society.
Anna Quindlen

3.
I would rather start a family than finish one.
Marquis, Don

4.
All happy families resemble one another; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
Tolstoy, Count Leo

5.
A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him. Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it. They all tried, but in vain. Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one. This they did with the greatest ease. Then said the father, Thus, my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone.
Aesop

6.
The hatred of relatives is the most violent.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

7.
The roaring of the wind is my wife and the stars through the window pane are my children. The mighty abstract idea I have of beauty in all things stifles the more divided and minute domestic happiness.
Keats, John

8.
Big sisters are the crab grass in the lawn of life.
Schulz, Charles M.

9.
Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives, no support, we've put it in an impossible situation.
Mead, Margaret

10.
The family is the school of duties... founded on love.
Adler, Felix

11.
Family... the home of all social evil, a charitable institution for comfortable women, an anchorage for house-fathers, and a hell for children.
Strindberg, J. August

12.
If Mr. Vincent Price were to be co-starred with Miss Bette Davis in a story by Mr. Edgar Allan Poe directed by Mr. Roger Corman, it could not fully express the pent-up violence and depravity of a single day in the life of the average family.
Crisp, Quentin

13.
Look for the good, not the evil, in the conduct of members of the family.
Proverb, Jewish

14.
Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family: Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.
Howard, Jane

15.
The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home.
Confucius

16.
As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.
John Paul II

17.
All I am, or can be, I owe to my angel mother.
Lincoln, Abraham

18.
All people are your relatives, therefore expect only trouble from them.
Proverb, Chinese

19.
Nor need we power or splendor, wide hall or lordly dome; the good, the true, the tender- these form the wealth of home.
Hale, Sarah J.

20.
For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.
Rossetti, Christina

21.
The government is becoming the family of last resort.
Brown, Jerry

22.
Happy or unhappy, families are all mysterious. We have only to imagine how differently we would be described --and will be, after our deaths --by each of the family members who believe they know us.
Steinem, Gloria

23.
Family jokes, though rightly cursed by strangers, are the bond that keeps most families alive.
Benson, Stella

24.
I think the ideal situation for a family is to be completely incestuous.
Burroughs, William S.

25.
Having a baby's sweet face so close to your own, for so long a time as it takes to nurse'em, is a great tonic for a sad soul.
Erica Eisdorfer

26.
The proliferation of support groups suggests to me that too many Americans are growing up in homes that do not contain a grandmother. A home without a grandmother is like an egg without salt and Helpists know it. They have jumped into the void left by the disappearance of morbid old ladies from the bosom of the American family.
King, Florence

27.
A brother is a friend provided by nature.
Pere, Legouve

28.
The family spirit has rendered man carnivorous.
Picabia, Francis

29.
I think people that have a brother or sister don't realize how lucky they are. Sure, they fight a lot, but to know that there's always somebody there, somebody that's family.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone

30.
One of the oddest features of western Christianized culture is its ready acceptance of the myth of the stable family and the happy marriage. We have been taught to accept the myth not as an heroic ideal, something good, brave, and nearly impossible to fulfil, but as the very fiber of normal life. Given most families and most marriages, the belief seems admirable but foolhardily.
Raban, Jonathan

31.
In a broken nest there are few whole eggs.
Proverb, Chinese

32.
A poor relation is the most irrelevant thing in nature, a piece of impertinent correspondence, an odious approximation, a haunting conscience, a preposterous shadow, lengthening in the noon-tide of our prosperity. He is known by his knock.
Lamb, Charles

33.
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. [Proverbs 18:19]
Bible

34.
Absence is one of the most useful ingredients of family life, and to dose it rightly is an art like any other.
Stark, Freya

35.
Family isn't about whose blood you have. It's about who you care about.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone

36.
Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family. Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.
Jane Howard

37.
My family begins with me, your family ends with you.
Iphicrates

38.
The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family.
Jefferson, Thomas

39.
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.
Frost, Robert

40.
Families are nothing other than the idolatry of duty.
Oakley, Ann

41.
Women's liberationists spread the word that the only peaceful family is one in which either the wife is enslaved or the husband is androgynous.
Tyell, R. Emmett

42.
Every man sees in his relatives, and especially in his cousins, a series of grotesque caricatures of himself.
Mencken, H. L.

43.
Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material.

44.
The family you come from isn't as important as the family you're going to have.
Lardner, Ring

45.
With a new familiarity and a flesh-creeping homeliness entirely of this unreal, materialistic world, where all sentiment is coarsely manufactured and advertised in colossal sickly captions, disguised for the sweet tooth of a monstrous baby called the Public, the family as it is, broken up on all hands by the agency of feminist and economic propaganda, reconstitutes itself in the image of the state.
Lewis, Wyndham

46.
The parents age must be remembered, both for joy and anxiety.
Confucius

47.
When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry.
Proverb, Jewish

48.
There is not much less vexation in the government of a private family than in the managing of an entire state.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

49.
Cruel is the strife of brothers.
Aristotle

50.
People who have good relationships at home are more effective in the marketplace.
Ziglar, Zig
