A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.

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

There's something about being with a group of people who become like family that must be needed in society.

I don't know if I believe in marriage. I believe in family, love and children.

I am tortured when I am away from my family, from my children. I am horribly guilt-ridden.

Little children are still the symbol of the eternal marriage between love and duty.

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.

The joke in our family is that we can cry reading the phone book.

I grew up in a big family with a lot of kids around, and I definitely want to have children as well.

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