Kin Quotations
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin. William Shakespeare In modern life nothing produces such an effect as a good platitude. It makes the whole world kin. Oscar Wilde Our most bitter enemies are our own kith and kin. Kings have no brothers, no sons, no mother! Honore De Balzac There is something so settled and stodgy about turning a great romance into next of kin on an emergency room form, and something so soothing and special, too. Anna Quindlen My efforts have been to not only put the Biblical incident in the original setting, but at the same time give the human touch which makes the whole world kin and which ever remains the same. Henry Ossawa Tanner |
