Quotes that Celebrate Family

The love between family members is one of the strongest human connections, so here are a handful of quotes to celebrate family selected by the Vujar review team.

"Family is just accident. They don't mean to get on your nerves. They don't even mean to be your family, they just are."

-Marsha Norman

"Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family; whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one."

-Jane Howard

"At the end of the day, a loving family should find everything forgivable."

-Mark V. Olsen and Will Sheffer

Family: A social unit where the father is concerned with parking space, the children with outer space, and the mother with closet space.

-Evan Esar

"The family: We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together."

-Erma Bombeck

"Family quarrels have a total bitterness unmatched by others. Yet it sometimes happens that they also have a kind of tang, pleasantness beneath the unpleasantness, based on the tacit understanding that this is not for keeps; that any limb you climb out on will still be there later for you to climb back."

-Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960

"You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them."

-Desmond Tutu

-Author Unknown

“Other things may change us, but we start and end with family”
