“The loosening, for some people, of rigid role definitions for men and women has shown that dads can be great at calming babies—if they take the time and make the effort to learn how.

—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“I’ll tell you something, Doc. Ever since I was born, everybody looks at me and says, “You’re ugly.” Makes me feel mean.... I’m saying, Doc, maybe because I look ugly—maybe if a man looks ugly he does ugly things.”
