Clearly America's dysfunctional food culture must bear some of the blame for our excess pounds but it's likely our walking-averse lifestyles contribute as well.

As you know Social Security functions under the premise that today's workers will help finance benefits for retirees and that these workers will then be supported by the next generation of workers paying into the same system.

In constant pursuit of money to finance campaigns the political system is simply unable to function. Its deliberative powers are paralyzed.

The poor don't know that their function in life is to exercise our generosity.

The secret of life is to have no fear it's the only way to function.

I grew up in a dysfunctional family.

The functions of the family in a highly differentiated society are not to be interpreted as functions directly on behalf of the society but on behalf of personality.

We fight a lot you know but that's family. We may be dysfunctional but we're still family.

The family only represents one aspect however important an aspect of a human being's functions and activities. A life is beautiful and ideal or the reverse only when we have taken into our consideration the social as well as the family relationship.

If you ever start feeling like you have the goofiest craziest most dysfunctional family in the world all you have to do is go to a state fair. Because five minutes at the fair you'll be going 'you know we're alright. We are dang near royalty.'
