My father must have had some elementary education for he could read and write and keep accounts inaccurately
~ George Bernard Shaw ~
That he delights in the misery of others no man will confess, and yet what other motive can make a father cruel?
~ Joseph Addison ~
It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was.
~ Anne Sexton ~
A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again.
~ Enid Bagnold ~
The fundamental defect with fathers is that they want their children to be a credit to them.
~ Bertrand Russell ~
The father who does not teach his son his duties is equally guilty with the son who neglects them.
~ Confucius ~
He who is taught to live upon little owes more to his father's wisdom than he who has a great deal left him does to his father's care.
~ William Penn ~
You know, fathers just have a way of putting everything together.
~ Erika Cosby ~
The thing to remember about fathers is, they're men. A girl has to keep it in mind: They are dragon-seekers, bent on improbable rescues. Scratch any father, you find someone chock-full of qualms and romantic terrors, believing change is a threat -- like your first shoes with heels on, like your first bicycle I it took such months to get.
~ Phyllis Mcginley ~
Be kind to thy father, for when thou were young, who loved thee so fondly as he? He caught the first accents that fell from thy tongue, and joined in thy innocent glee.
~ Margaret Courtney ~
What a dreadful thing it must be to have a dull father.
~ Mary Mapes Dodge ~
