I can replace things, but I could never replace my wife and kids.

Pablo Escobar
About This Quote

This saying is about the value of family, and the value of a relationship. This person may be able to replace some things, but they could never replace their wife and kids. In the world of business, this saying is usually said when a person says they want to fire someone else for doing a poor job, but their first priority is to keep their family safe. When a person is truly concerned about the well-being of their family above all else, that is a priority that can't be replaced.
