Famous quotes containing the words blessed and/or father:
“Niobe would have been called most blessed of mothers,
had she not seemed so herself.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
“What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leather skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
It was a crest ere thou wast born;
Thy father’s father wore it,
And thy father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
