Sherman made the terrible discovery that men make about their 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
Dad, your guiding hand on my shoulder will remain with me forever. ~Author Unknown

When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.

Father! - to God himself we cannot give a holier name. ~William Wordsworth
