“Our family is not what it was, but we are all gravitating
back into family lives of one sort and another; it is a drift that people
cannot seem to help, in spite of lessons learned the hard way … I think often
of the ancient times, long before Latin, when words were new and had no
connotations. Pure words stood for single things: ‘Family’ meant people in a
house together. But that was in a language so far back that all its words are gone,
a language we can only imagine.”
