A few family quotes from an article that made me think:

“one of the most glories messes in the world is the mess created in the living room on Christmas day, don’t clean it up too quickly” Andy Rooney

“You know what this family needs, a mute” Dennis Leary in THE REF (great movie)

“If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you might as well make it dance” George Bernard Shaw

And the one that I want to always remember:

“The best way to give advice to children is to find out what they want and advice them to do it” Harry Truman
