Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds, they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material. |
Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap-on-a-rope. |
Fathers and mothers have lost the idea that the highest aspiration they might have for their children is for them to be wise - specialized competence and success are all that they can imagine |
|
For this cause shall a man leave father and mother and shall cleave unto his wife |
Martin Mull (1943-) |

Homer: [drunk] Look, the thing about my family is there's five of us. Marge, Bart, Girl Bart, the one who doesn't talk, and the fat guy. How I loathe him. |
