As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.

In our family, as far as we are concerned, we were born and what happened before that is myth.

If parents would only realize how they bore their children!

In peace, children inter their parents; war violates the order of nature and causes parents to inter their children.

One race there is of men, one of gods, but from one mother we both draw our breath.

It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself… it seems unfair. You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do—or don’t do.

Every adolescent has that dream every century has that dream every revolutionary has that dream, to destroy the family.  

Again, men in general desire the good, and not merely what their fathers had.
