Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of
a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our
sons, ambition; but to our daughters there is something which there are
no words to express.
~ Joseph Addison
The thing to remember about fathers is, they're men. A girl
has to keep it in mind: They are dragon-seekers, bent on improbable
rescues. Scratch any father, you find someone chock-full of
qualms and romantic terrors, believing change is a threat -
like your first shoes with heels on, like your first bicycle it took such months to get. -Phyllis McGinley
It is the nature of babies to be in bliss. - Deepak Chopra
"A child is a curly, dimpled lunatic." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance. ~Ruth E. Renkel
