“There is nothing that moves a loving father's soul quite like his child's cry.”

“A father can pass on his nose and eyes and even his intelligence to his child, but not his soul. In every human being the soul is new”

“A child's cry touches a father's heart, and our King is the Father of his people. If we can do no more than cry it will bring omnipotence to our aid. A cry is the native language of a spiritually needy soul; it has done with fine phrases and long orations, and it takes to sobs and moans; and so, indeed, it grasps the most potent of all weapons, for heaven always yields to such artillery.”

“A good father. A man with a head, a heart, and a soul. A man capable of listening, of leading and respecting a child, and not of drowning his own defects in him. Someone whom a child will not only love because he's his father, but will also admire for the person he is. Someone he would want to grow up to resemble.”

“Answered prayer is the interchange of love between the Father and His child.”

“A child is not likely to find a father in God unless he finds something of God in his father.”
