[edit] Children:
"You know, I hear everybody talking about the generation gap. Frankly, sometimes I don't know what they're talking about. Heck, by now I should know a little bit about it, if I'm ever going to. I have seven kids and eighteen grandkids and I don't seem to have any trouble talking to any of them. Never have had, and don't intend to start now."

Marisa & Aissa (1956)

Michael (1934)
