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

I've given it my all. I've done my best. Now, I'm ready with my family to begin the next phase of our lives.

We love to be with our family and friends and I can tell you that lots of eating will be involved.

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