Children are natural mimics: they act like their parents in spite of every attempt to teach them good manners. |
There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings. |
No man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to persevere to the end in their nature and education |
The openness of our hearts and minds can be measured by how wide we draw the circle of what we call family. |
My father was absent and he was a hero to me |
