Famous quotes containing the words singh and/or son:
“Saint, saintliness is a long way off.
It is like a tall and beautiful palm tree.
If you climb it, you drink the love potion,
but if you fall you break into pieces.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
“Until you have a son of your own . . . you will never know the joy, the love beyond feeling that resonates in the heart of a father as he looks upon his son. You will never know the sense of honor that makes a man want to be more than he is and to pass something good and hopeful into the hands of his son. And you will never know the heartbreak of the fathers who are haunted by the personal demons that keep them from being the men they want their sons to be.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)
