The secret of having it all is loving it all. - Joyce Brothers

"We treat each other well" In strong families, positive strokes outnumber negative broadsides by a wide margin. Members regularly express appreciation: "Thanks for fixing the drainpipe." "you look so nice in that dress." "The dinner was great" Criticism is offered gently. After all, strong families figure, if we can be kind to strangers, why not to one another.

If Shakespeare had to go on an author tour to promote Romeo and Juliet, he never would have written Macbeth.

When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.
