Text Quotes
Like most, I was a solitary boy at first, keeping to my books and weeping in the hedgerows whenever I could get away on my own. Surely, I thought, I must be the saddest child in the world; that there must be something innately horrid about me to cause my father to cast me off so heartlessly. I believed that if I could discover what it was, there might be a chance of putting things right, of somehow making it up to him  (Father Quotes) There was something terrible, but also something sad and melancholy in this long cry uttered by the Russian infantry as they staged an attack. As it crossed the cold water, it lost its fervor. Instead of valor or gallantry, you could hear the sadness of a soul parting with everything that it loved, calling on its nearest and dearest to wake up, to lift their head from their pillows and hear for the last time the voice of a father, a husband, a son or a brother  (Father Quotes) As he drank, I remembered that there's a reason we English are ruled more by tea than by Buckingham Palace or His Majesty's Government: Apart from the soul, the brewing of tea is the only thing that sets us apart from the great apes - or so the Vicar had remarked to Father  (Father Quotes) I shot him a broad smile, a smile wide enough to present him with a good view of the wire braces that caged my teeth.

We were talking to one another almost like adults; almost like one human being to another; almost like father and daughter. And even though I couldn't think of anything to say, I felt myself wanting it to go on and on until the last star blinked out  (Father Quotes) "Tell them we may not be praying with them, " Father told the Vicar, "but we are at least not actively praying against them."  (Father Quotes) Other before me have gone much father into holy mysteries than I have done, but if my fire is not large, it is yet real and it may be those who can light their candle at its flame  (Father Quotes) My lord, I have heard that your father was a military man. Was that the case?  (Father Quotes) If our family was an airline, Mom was the hub and we were the spokes. You rarely went anywhere nonstop; you went via Mom, who directed the traffic flow and determined the priorities: which family member was cleared for takeoff or landing. Even my father was not immune to Mom's scheduling, though he was given more leeway than the rest of us  (Father Quotes) O god and father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to thy presence. Open my eyes that I may behold thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, amen  (Father Quotes) My father provided; he gathered things to himself and let them fall upon the world; my clothes, my food, my luxurious hopes had fallen to me from him, and for the first time his death seemed, even at its immense stellar remove of impossibility, a grave and dreadful threat  (Father Quotes) Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment  (Father Quotes) When people mistakenly believe a lie, we have a responsibility—even a commission (Matthew 28:18-20)—to gently and lovingly point them to God’s truth. What is truth? It is that God alone is the one means of forgiveness of sin. He alone is the one way to eternal life. “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6)  (Father Quotes) It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.” (Acts 1:7)  (Father Quotes) Of that day and hour no one knows, no, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.” (Matthew 24:36)  (Father Quotes) Isaiah 9:6, “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace  (Father Quotes) About 60 years ago, I said to my father, 'Old Mr. Senex is showing his age; he sometimes talks quite stupidly.' My father replied, 'That isn't age. He's always been stupid. He is just losing his ability to conceal it  (Father Quotes) My mother groaned! My father wept. Into the dangerous world I leapt: Helpless, naked, piping loud: Like a fiend hid in a cloud  (Father Quotes) When my mother died I was very young, and my father sold me while yet my tongue could scarcely cry 'weep! 'weep! 'weep!'weep! So your chimneys I sweep, and in soot i sleep  (Father Quotes) Thinking as I do that the creator of this world is a very cruel being and being a worshipper of christ, I cannot help saying: the son, o how unlike the father! First God almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it  (Father Quotes) Like it or not, to reach middle age with less money or less prestige than our father had is somewhat to lose face. Stupid of course, when put like that, but who is prepared to argue that we are not stupid in several important ways?  (Father Quotes) For flowers that bloom about our feet; for tender grass, so fresh, so sweet; for song of bird, and hum of bee; for all things fair we hear or see, father in heaven, we thank thee!  (Father Quotes) I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike; so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father  (Father Quotes) I am an expert of electricity. My father occupied the chair of applied electricity at the state prison  (Father Quotes) It no longer bothers me that I may be constantly searching for father figures; by this time, I have found several and dearly enjoyed knowing them all  (Father Quotes) Therefore, let us be patient, patient; and let God our father teach his own lesson, his own way. Let us try to learn it well and quickly; but do not let us fancy that he will ring the school-bell, and send us to play before our lesson is learnt  (Father Quotes) I am so excited to extend myself behind the scenes as a designer and to - as my father puts it - finally have a real job  (Father Quotes) Alexander the Great valued learning so highly, that he used to say he was more indebted to Aristotle for giving him knowledge than to his father Philip for life  (Father Quotes) I once asked my father for a dollar for the school picnic. He told me how he once killed a grizzly bear with his loose-leaf notebook  (Father Quotes) My father established our relationship when I was seven years old. He looked at me and said, You know, I brought you in this world, and I can take you out. And it don't make no difference to me, I'll make another one look just like you  (Father Quotes)
