HAPPY FAMILIES

Leo Tolstoy opened his novel, Anna Karenina with this line:

"Happy families," he said, "are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."

I don’t know if that’s entirely true, but, of course, what is true is that there are happy families and there are unhappy families.
