Sons

Famous quotes containing the word sons:

    Many people now believe that if fathers are more involved in raising children than they were, children and sons in particular will learn that men can be warm and supportive of others as well as be high achievers. Thus, fathers’ involvement may be beneficial not because it will help support traditional male roles, but because it will help break them down.
    Joseph H. Pleck (20th century)

    I went to my father’s at night. He spoke of poor John [Boswell’s brother] with disgust. I was shocked and said, “He’s your son, and God made him.” He answered very harshly, “If my sons are idiots, can I help it?”
    James Boswell (1740–1795)

    We are the sons and daughters of the world they saved. [Now is our moment] to make common cause with other countries to ensure a world of peace and prosperity for yet another generation.
    Bill Clinton (b. 1946)
