I buried my father in my heart.Now he grows in me, my strange son, my little root who won’t drink milk, little pale foot sunk in unheard-of night, little clock spring newly wetin the fire,...

Deal.

My father was an expert hunter, so we ate a lot of wild game when I was growing up in Montana. That helped broaden my palate generally, but I know it informed my distaste for...

My father was in the army, and there wasn’t too much money. Yet, we learnt to enjoy the small pleasures of life, to look at the positives.

I saw my father as a man, and not, as a man who was my father.

It’s been said that parents should give their children roots and wings. That was a perfect description of my parents. Even in a wheelchair, my father was a dreamer with his head in the clouds...

(Don Fey had a large rubber stamp that said “bullshit,” which was and is awesome.)

My grandson Sam Saunders has been playing golf since he could hold a club and I spent a lot of time with him over the years. Like my father taught me, I showed him the...

I have a very down-to-earth father. My wife is an actress and famous herself is more down-to-earth than anyone I know.

My mother didn’t try to stab my father until I was six, but she must have shown signs of oddness before that.

I love God, Jesus Christ, my three children, mother, father, brother, sisters, family in general, my pets, my students, and true friends.

Jesus is more interested in your heart than your ministry.

My son is 7 years old. I am 54. It has taken me a great many years to reach that age. I am more respected in the community, I am stronger, I am more intelligent...

My father never raised his hand to any one of his children, except in self-defense.

My father’s family came from Virginia and Philadelphia. He wasn’t a brother who talked a lot. He was a workingman, a quiet, blue-collar dude.

[Yasser Arafat] is not just a husband or a father,

My main memories of my father are of his illness.

I think there is a heritage which I’m proud of, which is a fight for democracy, a fight for social justice, a fight for freedom. My grandfather went to jail or exile six times in...

But in the end I’d marry her to the one she herself loved. To a father, the man his daughter falls in love with herself always seems the worst. That’s how it is.

Dad, is that you?

We learn much of parenting from our own parents. My love for my father deepened profoundly when he was kind, patient, and understanding.

Well, you don’t need my help for that, my dear boy!” said Sir Horace, settling himself more comfortably in his chair.

We are each one on a road going toward home, but we’re not trying to get there for Christmas. We’re trying to get there for eternity. We want to arrive home safely to our loving...

I admire my father greatly.

I once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, ‘sociologist.’

I know that when I read the Bible, my life is transformed. I think differently. I act differently. I talk differently.

Unlike Elise, who could discover parts of a person they didn’t even know were absent, you specialized in tangible, but that, I feared, was only a matter of time.

Genesis began with the Father losing His family. Revelation ends with Him getting them back. Is there nothing to be learned from this sad cycle? Truly, family is the legitimate theme of holy text.pg vi

When my father spoke, it was to say something meaningful.

This resemblance became clear in the Bush the father’s visits to the region. He wound up being impressed by the royal and military regimes and envied them for staying decades in their positions and embezzling...

The relative property of the Son is to be begotten, that is, so to proceed from the Father as to be a participant of the same essence and perfectly carry on the Father’s nature.

Being a father, well, I don’t know if this is a change, but it makes me want to get out of here faster. Get off the clock. Just ’cause the baby is my reason for...

I’m an honest, open father.

My dad’s contentment is all that matters to me. When he’s laughing, I’m laughing. When he’s happy, I’m happy. I would give up my soul for him. To me, nothing else but his happiness matters.

I became aware of Jews in my early teens, as I started to pick up the signals from the Christian church. Not that I was Christian – I’d been an atheist since I was five....

He’s by best friend and the father of my children. He’s a great ex.

I would say my greatest achievement in life right now – my greatest achievement period is – and I’m still trying to achieve it – is to be a wonderful father to my kids.

I’m from California, but my father, who passed away when I was young, was from Newark. When I was kid, we would go back east and catch Yankees games. His side of the family are...

One of the things my father taught me was you should not exclude those who are opposed to your ideas.

A father’s tears and fears are unseen, his love is unexpressed, but his care and protection remains as a pillar of strength throughout our lives.

There must be some kind of internal time distortion effect in here, because when I look at myself in the little mirror above my sink, what I see is my father’s face, my face turning...

I felt like a trophy child, someone he had around to show off. It felt like it was more important that his daughter was perfect—but, I was his daughter and I was neither of those...

My father, who had previously been a civil engineer, died in the great influenza epidemic of 1918.

The Father has not left Mealone, for I always do those things that please Him.” I am no longer motivated by personal ambition.I have discovered a sweeter, purer motive: simply to please my Father.

My father taught me how to fight when I was 5.
