needs the companionship of at least one adult who can
share it, rediscovering with him the mystery of the world
we live in.

~ Rachel Carson

The guys who fear becoming
fathers don't understand that fathering

that perfects the man. The end product of child
raising is not the child, but the parent.

~ Frank Pittman

There must always be a struggle between a father and
son when one aims at power and the other at independence.

~ Ibid

You know children are growing up when they start
asking questions that have answers.

word-for-word what you should not have said.

~ Unknown
