What must it be like for a little boy to read that daddy never loved mummy?

The family is the first essential cell of human society.

The other night I ate at a real nice family restaurant. Every table had an argument going.

I believe in the value of life. I believe we must prepare our children for tomorrow with the family values of my grandparents.

There's nothing I value more than the closeness of friends and family, a smile as I pass someone on the street.

I had a really wonderful upbringing. We were a tight family. It was wonderful to grow up with so many siblings. We were all just a year or two apart, and we were always so supportive of each other. I...

When my brother called to inform me, on the morning of May 22, 2003, that our mother Caroline Oates had died suddenly of a stroke, it was a shock from which, in a way, I have yet to recover.

I am grateful every morning I wake up. I've a big family full of kids, who laugh all the time and love each other.

I think that when you're queer, you grow up with these kinds of men who might have made you feel small because of who you are. They could be part of your family, or somebody on the street, or a...

I used to work at a school as a teacher's assistant, and my mom is a principal at an elementary school. I don't know, I think that's a pretty good life, teaching kids.

My favorite holiday memory was sitting at home all day in my pajamas during winter break for school watching a bunch of old Christmas movies like 'Jack Frost' and 'Rudolph the Red - Nosed Reindeer'...

My dad could be beyond brilliant but totally introverted. If we're talking about computers, he's on. Otherwise, he's a total recluse - he stays in the house and won't leave, and I'm like that. If I'm...

My father had a big brick cell phone, before anyone had a cell phone, because he was really just into that kind of thing - communication devices. I grew up between my father's laboratory and my...

My mom was really cool.

My mom is just someone who's easy to talk to and hang with. My sister, it's always cool to be able to help her out with things. My brother is fun when we're just joking and messing around. And my dad...

My sister is a mess. I love her to death, but she is a mess.

It's a weird place to be in because my dreams in life have surpassed what I could have ever imagined. I just hope I can continue to write stand-up, but I would say my big dream is to build an amazing...

I understand that you are under a lot of pressure and that it's hard being a bride. That is all well and good. But it does not, ever, entitle you to be rude, selfish, uncaring, and generally obnoxious...

Have we ever wondered a mother's silent cries? Her struggles, her fears and her worries? Do we ever have time for this in our busy lives? Have we ever thought of the sacrifices she has done in order...

You're my daughter. I don't care about the factions.

I swear we'd lose our hearts if they weren't with elastic and butterfly pin clasped safely in.

That's the moon,' I said. 'Gran likes it like that,' said Lettie Hempstock. 'But it was a crescent moon yesterday. And now it's full. And it was raining. It is raining. But now it's not.' 'Gran likes...

Minli suddenly thought of Ma and Ba. A wave of longing washed through her and a dryness caught in her throat that the tea could not moisten. Where the Mountain Meets the Moon.

Being mom is one of my favorite things. It makes my day watching my kids grow and accomplish things in their lives.

Happiness is when you realize that your kids have grown up to be AWESOME people!

A mother is the person who takes care of you when you're sick. The one who holds you when you're afraid. The one who follows the bus to school on the first day to make sure you made it okay. I have...

My parents have lived longer than most and have expected very little. We have been blessed in too many ways to count.

Never argue with a mother who's scolding her child.

I thought about the cameras following me in the terminal and pictured my family watching my entrance on TV. I hoped they'd be proud.

My mother does not own my hands, though she works hard to train them. My mother does not own my eyes, though she frequently directs their focus. My mother does not own my mind, though she yields great...
