Famous quotes containing the words life and/or father:

    A man’s whole life is taxed for the least thing well done. It is its net result.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
