| + | Mating is purely an act of self-perpetuation associated with varying degrees of self-gratification; marriage, '''home''' building, is largely a matter of self-maintenance, and it implies the evolution of [[society]].

The family is the [[channel]] through which the river of culture and [[knowledge]] flows from one generation to another.([[84:0]]) |
