“They are the greatest curse of all great men, daughters”
Jason Zebehazy
“A son is a son till he takes him a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life.”
Irish Sayings
“Fathers and sons are much more considerate of one another than mothers and daughters.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“The sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair”
Bible
“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, / That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.”
“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 I it took such months to get.”
Phyllis McGinley
“And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place: / For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.”
