The only rock I know that stays steady, the only institution I know that works, is the family.

It's very strange that most people don't care if their knowledge of their family history only goes back three generations.

Family life itself, that safest, most traditional, most approved of female choices, is not a sanctuary: It is, perpetually, a dangerous place.

For all of those willing to help me start a family, I am flattered. I will let you know when I need your help.

Family is not an important thing. It's everything.

The foundation of family - that's where it all begins for me.

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

All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

I have these visions of myself being thirty, thirty-five, forty having a family.

There's nothing I value more than the closeness of friends and family, a smile as I pass someone on the street.
