Fathers

Famous quotes containing the word fathers:

“The land of my fathers. My fathers can have it.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“If fathers who fear fathering and run away from it could only see how little fathering is enough. Mostly, the father just needs to be there.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)

“Fathers are still considered the most important “doers” in our culture, and in most families they are that. Girls see them as the family authorities on careers, and so fathers’ encouragement and counsel is important to them. When fathers don’t take their daughters’ achievements and plans seriously, girls sometimes have trouble taking themselves seriously.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
