'Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.'
George Burns (1896-1996)

Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910)
'Families are about love overcoming emotional torture.'
Matt Groening, Creator of the Simpsons (1954-)
'Divorce is when mommy and daddy yell at each other then they spread apart. Then they put up a 'for sale' sign in front of the house and they spread farther and farther apart until they can't come back ever again and it's very sad.' (teaching her 4-year old brother)
