“I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.”
Sigmund Freud
“My childhood should have taught me lessons for my own fatherhood, but it didn't because parenting can only be learned by people who have no children.”
Bill Cosby
“There's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.”
Erma Bombeck
“I've always been a freak and different, oddball even in my childhood and my own family, so I can relate to people who are struggling and trying to find their true identity. I do not sit in the seat of judgment. ... I love people for who they are. We're all God's children.”
Dolly Parton
“She was wearing a dress made out of paper. She was a bit of a childhood prodigy. A very confident child and obviously something special.”
Oprah Winfrey
“I've had a fairy tale life. I had a perfect family, a beautiful childhood, an incredible upbringing. I lived a lot of life but a lot of good life... But in the last few years, losing my father, going through a divorce and not getting some jobs I really wanted, is making me a much more interesting person, I think... This all really does feel like a rebirth, a new chapter.”
John Stamos
“The age of your children is a key factor in how quickly you are served in a restaurant. We once had a waiter in Canada who said, "Could I get you your check?" and we answered, "How about the menu first?"”
