Family is the nucleus of civilization.

Ariel and Will Durant















[The family's] resilience is not measured by wealth, muscle or efficiency but by creativity, unity, and hope. Cultivating these family strengths is critical to a thriving human community.

Ben Silliman








Having children makes you no more a parent than having a piano makes you a pianist.

Michael Levine







The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.

Theo. Hesburgh







Nothing you do for children is ever wasted.

Garrison Keillor












A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.

Tenneva Jordan






To become a father is not difficult, but to be a father is.
