“The family is one of nature’s masterpieces.”– George Santayana Related Quotes “I was raised by a single mother who made a way for me. She used to scrub floors as a domestic worker, put a cleaning rag in her pocketbook and ride the subways in Brooklyn so I would have food on the table. But she taught me as I walked her to the subway that life is about not where you start, but where you’re going. That’s family values.”– Al Sharpton “My family, you know, are all still, you know, very close. We’re all still very close. Mom and Daddy are still alive. So, what more can you ask for? Your kids are healthy.”– Reba McEntire “If I had no family, my wife and I would lead a much more romantic and nomadic existence.”– David McCallum
