fathers sooner or later that the man before him was not an aging
father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up
and had a child of his own and, as best he could, out of a sense
of duty and, perhaps love, adopted a role called 'Being a Father'
so that his child would have something mythical and infinitely
important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the chaotic
and catastrophic possibilities of life.
Tom Wolfe
The Bonfire of the Vanities.

of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again.
Jimmy Piersall - on how to diaper
a baby

hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself.
John Gregory Brown
When Charles first saw our child Mary, he said all the proper
things for a new father. He looked upon the poor little red
thing and blurted, "She's more beautiful than the Brooklyn
Bridge."
Helen Hayes
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could
hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be
twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven
years.
