The Inheritance of Loss
“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.”
Carlos Ruiz Zafon
The Shadow of the Wind
“A child is not likely to find a father in God unless he finds something of God in his father.”
