Quote

I have a very, very creative family.

Family tends to be one of the recurring themes in my fiction.

I find the family the most mysterious and fascinating institution in the world.

To me, families are fascinating. I choose to explore it through comedy and through comic situations.

I've always been fascinated by family ancestry.

There are just so many stories that are buried on family trees.

I'm very much more interested in the created family than I am in actual families.

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

Of all those arts in which the wise excel, Nature's chief masterpiece is writing well.

The family is the nucleus of civilization.
