He turned to Matt and gave a huge smile, one hand on her withers. James reached out and pulled Matt to him, and they stood there in a little circle. It felt disconcertingly like… a family reunion. Matt turned away from James‟s bright smile and looked at Miz in something akin to horror. Was she their… child? Miz nipped him. Hard. While snorting horse mucus all over him. Damn thing couldn‟t even blow her own damn nose. Would she ever grow up? ~ Anne Tenino
Family Reunion quotes by Anne Tenino
I guess it is what you do if you grow up with warnings of damnation ringing from every church door and radio station and family reunion, in a place where total strangers will walk up to you at the Piggly Wiggly and ask if you are Saved. Even if you deny that faith, rebuke it, you still carry it around with you like some half-forgotten Indian head penny you keep in your pocket for luck. I wonder sometimes if I will be the same, if when I see my life coming to an end I will drop to my knees and search my soul for old sins and my memory for forgotten prayers. I reckon so. ~ Rick Bragg
Family Reunion quotes by Rick Bragg
She's an Alchemist," continued Nathan. "Not a chauffeur. There's a big difference." Actually, there were days at Amberwood I doubted that. "Come, Miss Sage. If you've wasted your day driving my son here, the least I can do is buy you lunch."
I shot a panicked look at Adrian. It wasn't panicked because I was afraid of being with Moroi. I'd long since gotten used to these sorts of situations. What I was unsure of was if Adrian really wanted me around for his family reunion. That hadn't been part of the plan. Also, I wasn't sure that I really wanted to be around for said reunion either.
"Dad-" Adrian attempted.
"I insist," said Nathan crisply. "Pay attention and learn common courtesy." He turned and began walking away, assuming we'd follow. We did.
"Should I find a reason to leave?" I whispered to Adrian.
"Not when he uses his 'I insist' voice," came the muttered response. ~ Richelle Mead
Family Reunion quotes by Richelle Mead
We'll be together there," said Valentine. "As we should be." That sounds terrific,thought Clary.Just you, your comatose wife, your shell-shocked son, and your daughter
who hates your guts. Not to mention that your two kids may be in love with each other. Yeah, that sounds like
a perfect family reunion. ~ Cassandra Clare
Family Reunion quotes by Cassandra Clare
I realized at that moment that depression and I will always be linked, tugging back and forth, like the drunken uncle who still gets invited to the family reunion even though everyone knows he's going to make a messy scene. ~ Kelly Wilson
Family Reunion quotes by Kelly Wilson
One of the best things about Heaven is that we will be able to reunite with loved ones who have already passed on. It will be the greatest family reunion we've ever known, with our loved ones, relatives and ancestors all together in one place at the same time, rejoicing. All together at last! ~ David Berg
Family Reunion quotes by David Berg
You look out into the audience and you see so much joy on people's faces. You make eye contact with people who are almost crying because they can't believe they're seeing the Rumours five back again, they can't believe their eyes. It's almost like a family reunion on stage, there's no angst, there's no animosity, there's just tremendous amount of friendship. ~ Christine McVie
Family Reunion quotes by Christine McVie
A worship team that prays together stays together. ~ Gangai Victor
Family Reunion quotes by Gangai Victor
The best thing I could say is you do have to be a really good listener. If I go to a family reunion, and there's 400 people there, everybody comes up and tells me their stories, right? And I think that when you're a good listener, and you can imagine how someone's talking, dialogue is your key friend, is it not? ~ Susan Straight
Family Reunion quotes by Susan Straight
It is spring 2007, and the block-long security lines into the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History (NMAH) are missing now while it is closed for renovation. The once controversial and "technically superb" exhibition Science in American Life is due to be phased out. The hot new museum exhibit is at the National Museum of Natural History's (NMNH) Kenneth E. Behring Hall of Mammals. There, entering this multimedia, multisensory immersive installation, we are invited to a "Mammal Family Reunion - Come meet your relatives!" - in a savvy response to antievolution religious activism. ~ Katie King
Family Reunion quotes by Katie  King
It's quite the family reunion we're having in here. ~ Cynthia Hand
Family Reunion quotes by Cynthia Hand
A football could be swapped out for a brick, to make family reunion football games more fun. But I'm calling it right now: I get to be quarterback. ~ Jarod Kintz
Family Reunion quotes by Jarod Kintz
About 80 percent of the photos on Flickr are public and searchable by everyone. In one sense, it's a place where people upload snapshots from the family reunion, wedding or the birth of a baby or something like that, but it's also a place where people go to show what the world looks like to them. ~ Stewart Butterfield
Family Reunion quotes by Stewart Butterfield
She'd never actually smiled at a family reunion before. It felt odd. ~ Louise Penny
Family Reunion quotes by Louise Penny
I love my family but my family - they're the type of people that never let you forget anything you ever did ... I was in the first grade Christmas play - I'm playing Mary. Now, during the course of the play, I dropped the baby Jesus ... They still talk about this. I go to my family reunion, and one of my cousins just had a baby. So I'm like, 'Oh, that's a cute little baby. Let me hold the baby ... ' And my aunt runs over, 'Don't you give her that baby! You know she dropped the baby Jesus!' ~ Wanda Sykes
Family Reunion quotes by Wanda Sykes
That's just it. She's in the state of mind that will think the worst of everybody," Emma said. "And basically, that's exactly what we're trying to reverse. It's a vicious cycle."

"God does the reversing." It was sudden, I hadn't thought of it that way before, but after it left my lips it brought me a load of comfort.

Emma paused what she was doing and looked at me. "You know, that's exactly right. Only God can change a heart. I suppose we can help, but it has to be all up to Him. ~ Kelsey Bryant
Family Reunion quotes by Kelsey Bryant
Though I work in New York City, in an office about a mile from the World Trade Center, I was not in New York City when the planes struck. I was on a plane above the Atlantic Ocean, heading back to New York from a family reunion and celebration in Europe. I had said good-bye to my husband in London; he was staying for a wedding of a business friend. I couldn't wait to see my kids and my parents, who would be waiting for me at a Little League game in our town, about thirty-five miles from New York City. An hour and a half into the flight, I suddenly had the feeling that the plane was making a slow turn. Nobody else seemed to notice. I sat nervously, hoping I was imagining it. But then a stewardess made an announcement. "There has been a catastrophic event affecting all of North American airspace," she said. "We are returning ~ Lauren Tarshis
Family Reunion quotes by Lauren Tarshis
Eve. The Lee family reunion, never a lively affair, is interrupted ~ Agatha Christie
Family Reunion quotes by Agatha Christie
Parents are not interested in justice, they're interested in peace and quiet. ~ Bill Cosby
Family Reunion quotes by Bill Cosby
A few minutes after the initial excited greetings they found themselves journeying in a maxi cab with a contended expression on their fatigued countenances as the moment held promise of forthcoming days of bliss and catch-up prattle that usually follows a family reunion. ~ Neetha Joseph
Family Reunion quotes by Neetha Joseph
At first, I was shocked that Diane could even suggest this family reunion [on television], and then I realized this is just the way of the world, or at least the way of fin de siecle America. Not only would the next revolution be televised, but so would every other little stupid thing. It was already happening: Television reunions between adopted children and their birth parents ... ~ Elizabeth Wurtzel
Family Reunion quotes by Elizabeth Wurtzel
If you don't believe in ghosts, you've never been to a family reunion. ~ Ashleigh Brilliant
Family Reunion quotes by Ashleigh Brilliant
Fine." Patrick muttered without confidence. "Anything is better than waiting around here." "Time for a little family reunion." Johnny remarked. At the agreement, the four trekked the rest of the way down the empty alley. As he passed the final building Patrick peered ~ Brendan Walsh
Family Reunion quotes by Brendan Walsh
When the food runs out, the family reunion is over. It's cool that out of all my relatives, I'm the only cannibal. ~ Jarod Kintz
Family Reunion quotes by Jarod Kintz
My encounters with racism are sort of second-hand situations where I might be standing around with a group of white friends and someone makes a comment that they wouldn't make at my family reunion. ~ Wentworth Miller
Family Reunion quotes by Wentworth Miller
Then everything is clear," Reynold said, looking around triumphantly at the crowd. "Jacques Cherbourg did not drown, he survived. He went to England, lived there a while, made a girl pregnant, and died. The girl gave birth to a boy and named him after the father. Jack here is now twenty, and looks exactly like his father did twenty-four years ago." Reynold looked at the priest. "No need for exorcism here, father. It's just a family reunion. ~ Ken Follett
Family Reunion quotes by Ken Follett
To be surrounded by sixty people who make your life miserable is to be at a family reunion. But to be surrounded by 600,000 people who make the whole world miserable is to live in Washington DC. ~ Jarod Kintz
Family Reunion quotes by Jarod Kintz
The happiness of the domestic fireside is the first boon of Heaven; and it is well it is so, since it is that which is the lot of the mass of mankind. ~ Thomas Jefferson
Family Reunion quotes by Thomas Jefferson
S then, every family reunion is bolstered by food, lots and lots of it. ~ Laura Castoro
Family Reunion quotes by Laura Castoro
People are generally irrational, unreasonable and selfish. They deserve to be loved, anyway. ~ Mother Teresa
Family Reunion quotes by Mother Teresa
You might be a redneck if your grandfather completely executes the pull my finger trick at the family reunion. ~ Jeff Foxworthy
Family Reunion quotes by Jeff Foxworthy
The future belongs to those who give the next generation reason for hope. ~ Pierre Teilhard De Chardin
Family Reunion quotes by Pierre Teilhard De Chardin
Plus, I can't look at him the same since I ran into Mrs. Marino at our family reunion. It's not comforting to learn you've made out with your cousin."
"Third cousin once removed," I argued. "It's hardly incest."
"Life is like a box of chocolates, Lisa," Katie noted around a half-chewed carrot stick. "You never know what you're going to get."
Lisa narrowed her eyes, confused. "Did she just quote Forrest Gump at me?"
"It's Matt's fault," I said. "She lost a bet and now anytime his name gets mentioned, she has sixty seconds to drop a relevant movie quote."
"That's insane."
"Yup," Katie piped in, "insanity tuns in my family. Its practically gallops."
"Classic." I high-fived her. ~ Cecily White
Family Reunion quotes by Cecily White
You see, insanity runs in my family. It practically gallops. ~ Joseph Kesselring
Family Reunion quotes by Joseph Kesselring
I think that the success of the franchise is helpful for launching different aspects of my career. It's sort of the reliable cousin that you can always count on for every family reunion. Because of 'Step Up' I've been able to really take my career to the next level. I have them to thank for a lot of my success. ~ Alyson Stoner
Family Reunion quotes by Alyson Stoner
He who works for his own interests will arouse much animosity ~ Confucius
Family Reunion quotes by Confucius
The job of the school is to teach so well that family background is no longer an issue. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Family Reunion quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
[A] beautiful young mother of five had full faith in her Heavenly Father, in His plan, and in the eternal welfare of her family. She was securely tied back to God. She was totally faithful to covenants made with the Lord and with her husband. She loved her children but was at peace, despite her impending separation from them. She had faith in her future, and theirs too, because she had faith in our Heavenly Father and His Son. ~ Russell M. Nelson
Family Reunion quotes by Russell M. Nelson
He turns to the painting. "I fear Mark was right."
"Who is Mark?"
"A silly little boy who runs after George Boleyn. I once heard him say I looked like a murderer."
Gregory says, "Did you not know? ~ Hilary Mantel
Family Reunion quotes by Hilary Mantel
All relationship systems become anxious. People put together and inevitably anxiety will arise. Anxiety can be infectious. We can give it to others or catch it from them. What precisely triggers anxiety is unique to each system. Common Activators are significant changes and losses. They upset the stable patterns and balance of the system. ~ Peter L. Steinke
Family Reunion quotes by Peter L. Steinke
We've been back since July, but I spent some time with the family in the south of France over the summer. We rented a house with another couple and took it easy. ~ Laura Innes
Family Reunion quotes by Laura Innes
At the end of the day, your relationships with the people in your life will be greater assets than any material things. Take time. Be present. You'll thank yourself for it later. ~ Vironika Tugaleva
Family Reunion quotes by Vironika Tugaleva
The family we're born into is important, sure, but they're not all we have. They're not all we are. A part of life is making your own family. That's the beauty of it all." I smile softly. "Do you have a big family?" "I do," he says, "but most of us aren't blood related. ~ J.M. Darhower
Family Reunion quotes by J.M. Darhower
No,'he said.'I was a Strigoi. I was one of them. I did ... terrible things.' The words were mild, but the tone of his voice spoke legions. The radiant faces of his family turned sober.'I was lost. Beyond hope. Except ... Rose believed in me. Rose never gave up. ~ Richelle Mead
Family Reunion quotes by Richelle Mead
I'm just me – half a family, no awareness whatsoever about style, or what's in and what's out. I'm not like the lizards. I don't really even know how I'm supposed to be with a guy that I'm attracted to. I've never been a game player. I don't know how to be coy… or sexy… or whatever. I have no finesse. ~ Jan Coffey
Family Reunion quotes by Jan Coffey
You know you are getting old when yesterday turns out to be a fading memory you have difficulties recollecting, when today becomes a challenge that is hard to grasp and when tomorrow promises an uncertainty that you dread encountering. ~ Janvier Chouteu-Chando
Family Reunion quotes by Janvier Chouteu-Chando
They were as close and as distant as any family. ~ Kate Tempest
Family Reunion quotes by Kate Tempest
I'm deeply grateful to live and work in this country and to the United States for opening its arms to me the way it has. I mean I think my attitude as an Aussie coming here - I've been coming here for a while now, I've been coming here for about 12 or 13 years - is that this country has afforded me and my family work and security. For that, I'm forever grateful. ~ Jennifer Lopez
Family Reunion quotes by Jennifer Lopez
On this spot, on the night of 31 October 1981,
Lily and James Potter lost their lives.
Their son, Harry, remains the only wizard
ever to have survived the Killing Curse.
This house, invisible to Muggles, has been left
in its ruined state as a monument to the Potters
and as a reminder of the violence
that tore apart their family.

And all around these neatly lettered words, scribbles had been added by other witches and wizards who had come to see the place where the Boy Who Lived had escaped. Some had merely signed their names in Everlasting Ink; others had carved their initials into the wood, still others had left messages. The most recent of these, shining brightly over sixteen years' worth of magical graffiti, all said similar things.

Good luck, Harry, wherever you are.
If you read this, Harry, we're all behind you!
Long live Harry Potter.

"They shouldn't have written on the sign!" said Hermione, indignant.
But Harry beamed at her.
"It's brilliant. I'm glad they did. ~ J.K. Rowling
Family Reunion quotes by J.K. Rowling
The thing about members of your family is that if you met them for the first time at a party, you might not bother to take their phone number, and yet something binds you. ~ Celia Imrie
Family Reunion quotes by Celia Imrie
Over time, a noisy lifestyle and stress make you old. The stress, noise and rush that often accompany working life, family life and social life can be too much for your nervous system and brain, which also need rest and cleansing. ~ Thorbjorg Hafsteinsdottir
Family Reunion quotes by Thorbjorg Hafsteinsdottir
The people in your life should always be more important than the work you do. ~ C.S. Woolley
Family Reunion quotes by C.S. Woolley
Live the life you wish to, date the man you wish to date, and stop looking to your family for affirmation for the choices that you make. Life is full of risks. You can't live your life in fear of how people will judge you for following your dreams. ~ David Sullivan
Family Reunion quotes by David Sullivan
When you become deeply involved with someone, their problems become yours, and vice versa. It's family. ~ Hank Azaria
Family Reunion quotes by Hank Azaria
The family were wild," she said suddenly. "They tried to marry me off. And then when I'd begun to feel that after all life was scarcely worth living I found something" - her eyes went skyward exultantly - "I found something!"

Carlyle waited and her words came with a rush.

"Courage - just that; courage as a rule of life, and something to cling to always. I began to build up this enormous faith in myself. I began to see that in all my idols in the past some manifestation of courage had unconsciously been the thing that attracted me. I began separating courage from the other things of life. All sorts of courage - the beaten, bloody prize-fighter coming up for more - I used to make men take me to prize-fights; the déclassé woman sailing through a nest of cats and looking at them as if they were mud under her feet; the liking what you like always; the utter disregard for other people's opinions - just to live as I liked always and to die in my own way - Did you bring up the cigarettes?"

He handed one over and held a match for her silently.

"Still," Ardita continued, "the men kept gathering - old men and young men, my mental and physical inferiors, most of them, but all intensely desiring to have me - to own this rather magnificent proud tradition I'd built up round me. Do you see?"

"Sort of. You never were beaten and you never apologized."

"Never!"

She sprang to the edge, poised or a moment like a c ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald
Family Reunion quotes by F. Scott Fitzgerald
We could be like a father determined to provide everything for his family. He devotes every energy to that end and succeeds; only then does he discover that what they needed most, to be together as a family, has been neglected. And he reaps sorrow in place of contentment. ~ Boyd K. Packer
Family Reunion quotes by Boyd K. Packer
Do you really think that if you don't mention my family I'll forget them? ~ Gayle Forman
Family Reunion quotes by Gayle Forman
One day we'll wake up and discover we are family. ~ Desmond Tutu
Family Reunion quotes by Desmond Tutu
I had an amazing experience working with great people. I had a great family, a typical family with drama in certain areas, and that's pretty much everywhere in everyone's life. ~ Tina Yothers
Family Reunion quotes by Tina Yothers
I believe the family is the foundation of America
and that we must fight to protect and strengthen it. I believe in the sanctity of human life. I believe that people and their elected representatives should make our laws, not unelected judges. ~ Mitt Romney
Family Reunion quotes by Mitt Romney
Even as a very young man, I knew that my family is like a plant. Uproot it, and it will wilt. Pluck away at it, and it will die. But leave it to thrive in the soil, untouched, and it will weather both gods and winds. It is born with the soil, and it will live so long as the soil shall live. ~ Etgar Keret
Family Reunion quotes by Etgar Keret
Surveying the shifts of interest among computer scientists and the ever-expanding family of those who depend on computers for their work, one cannot help being struck by the power of the computer to bind together, in a genuine community of interest, people whose motivations differ widely. ~ Maurice Wilkes
Family Reunion quotes by Maurice Wilkes
Posing as someone, or something, else is the story of many women and men who have experienced repression and made a bid for freedom. It is the story of a gay U.S. Marine who had to pretend he was straight. It is the story of a Jewish family in Nazi Germany posing as Protestants. It is the story of a black South African who tried to make his skin lighter under apartheid. ~ Jenny Nordberg
Family Reunion quotes by Jenny Nordberg
For the first five years of my life, things felt pretty good. A lot went wrong after that, family-wise. ~ Damon Galgut
Family Reunion quotes by Damon Galgut
There's a tremendous loss of talent to businesses who cannot make room for their employees to attend to family responsibilities. It really amounts to corporate waste: They hire really talented women and then lose them because they can't find ways to keep them productive and content the minute they can't "lean in." ~ Anne-Marie Slaughter
Family Reunion quotes by Anne-Marie Slaughter
Is the unborn a member of the human family? If so, killing him or her to benefit others is a serious moral wrong. It treats the distinct human being with his or her own inherent moral worth, as nothing more than a disposable instrument. Conversely, if the unborn are not human, elective abortion requires no more justification than having a tooth pulled. ~ Scott Klusendorf
Family Reunion quotes by Scott Klusendorf
Every life lesson that trickled its way into my being came from a mutually respectful relationship between the environment and my family. We were raised to appreciate the teachings of animals and the untouched magnificence of raw natural beauty. This understanding of our precious and complex ecosystem has carried me throughout every chapter of my life and is a significant column of my identity. ~ Ian Somerhalder
Family Reunion quotes by Ian Somerhalder
Once you run for office, you're in it - sort of like going into the military. You'd better be damned sure it is what you want to do and that the rest of your life is set up to accommodate that. It takes a certain toll on your personality and on your family life. I've seen it personally. ~ John F. Kennedy Jr.
Family Reunion quotes by John F. Kennedy Jr.
That is one fireball of a girlfriend you got there. The OR team was drawing straws to see who would go out and update her and your family. I think she actually had them scared. ~ Jay Crownover
Family Reunion quotes by Jay Crownover
Maddie breathed in deep, inhaling the scent of breakfast and dish soap, clean laundry and wood floors, sunshine and a room filled with love. It smelled like home. ~ Crissi Langwell
Family Reunion quotes by Crissi Langwell
My family and my friends are most important to me. These people are my foundation. ~ Faith Hill
Family Reunion quotes by Faith Hill
If I may, Miss," Sands said. "What you call 'a mascot' is more what should be termed 'an icon.' A subject not just of morale but of veneration or even worship. These men are United States Marines, yes, and they will continue to do their duty. But they are Marines who have lost everything. Family, friends, buddies, country. We are one and all lost and adrift on a darkling sea. You, Miss Smith, have become not their pin-up girl but their heart and soul. They would follow me into hell. Charge any shore, face any fire. I am their Gunny. That's what Marines do. If you hinted that Satan had a case of ammo you particularly liked, they would charge in without a bucket of water. As Staff Sergeant Januscheitis said when he, separately, brought the idea up: 'The only thing we've got left, Gunny, is Faith. ~ John Ringo
Family Reunion quotes by John Ringo
[L]et us imagine a mirror image of what is happening today. What if millions of white Americans were pouring across the border into Mexico, taking over parts of cities, speaking English rather than Spanish, celebrating the Fourth of July rather than Cinco de Mayo, sleeping 20 to a house, demanding bilingual instruction and welfare for immigrants, opposing border control, and demanding ballots in English? What if, besides this, they had high rates of crime, poverty, and illegitimacy? Can we imagine the Mexicans rejoicing in their newfound diversity?
And yet, that is what Americans are asked to do. For whites to celebrate diversity is to celebrate their own declining numbers and influence, and the transformation of their society. For every other group, to celebrate diversity is to celebrate increasing numbers and influence. Which is a real celebration and which is self-deception?
Whites - but only whites - must never take pride in their own people. Only whites must pretend they do not prefer to associate with people like themselves. Only whites must pretend to be happy to give up their neighborhoods, their institutions, and their country to people unlike themselves. Only whites must always act as individuals and never as members of a group that promotes shared interests.
Racial identity comes naturally to all non-white groups. It comes naturally because it is good, normal, and healthy to feel kinship for people like oneself. Despite the fashionable view that race ~ Jared Taylor
Family Reunion quotes by Jared Taylor
