Family Quotes
That Oscar can be a jinx... It can... damage irreparably one's relations with family, friends. It's an uneasy head that wears the crown.
Joan Fontaine
A family is something that I definitely want, but I'm 26, so I have plenty of time, and I try not to kind of confuse the two because, if I'm lucky enough, I want to make having a baby a personal decision rather than a career-defined one.
Lizzie Armitstead
My mother's father, Hobart Cromwell, was a bacteriologist with Abbott Laboratories in suburban Chicago.

That worldview is that the only thing that matters is family and personal connection, and that’s the only thing that gives life meaning.

And your brother might be the brother in your family, or it might be the guy next to you in the foxhole, it’s about human connections.
