It is a wise father that knows his own child.

She got her looks from her father. He's a plastic surgeon.

When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father both cry.

Don't force your kids into sports. I never was. To this day my dad has never asked me to go play golf. I ask him. It's the child's desire to play that matters, not the parent's desire to have the child play. Fun. Keep it fun.

A man cannot speak to his son but as a father, to his wife but as a husband, to his enemy but upon terms, whereas a friend may speak as the case requires, and not as it sorteth with the person.

It is a wise father that knows his own child.

A father may turn his back on his child, brothers and sisters may become inveterate enemies, husbands may desert their wives, wives their husbands. But a mother's love endures through all.

Every girl should use what Mother Nature gave her, before Father Time takes it away.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.

Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are their own.

My son Luke thinks it's cool that his dad quit his job

On his two younger sisters he then bestowed an equal portion of his fraternal tenderness, for he asked each of them how they did and observed that they both looked very ugly.

I wanted to be a skinny little ballerina, but I was a voluptuous little Italian girl whose dad had meatballs on the table every night.

This is the reason why mothers are more devoted to their children than fathers: it is that they suffer more in giving them birth and are more certain that they are their own.

My dad loves what I do and I support my parents financially, because they didn't have a job that gave them a pension.

To support mother and father to cherish wife and child and to have a simple livelihood, this is the good luck.

If the relationship of father to son could really be reduced to biology, the whole earth would blaze with the glory of fathers and sons.

Full fathom five thy father lies, of his bones are coral made. Those are pearls that were his eyes. Nothing of him that doth fade, but doth suffer a sea-change into something rich and strange.

When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.
