- Babies don't need fathers, but mothers do. Someone who is taking care of a baby needs to be taken care of.
- Amy Heckerling on Dad
- Barack Obama knows that to create an economy built to last, we need to focus on middle-class families. Families who stay up on Sunday nights pacing the floor, like my dad did, while their children, tucked in bed, dream big dreams. Families who aren't sure what Monday morning will bring, but who believe our nation's best days are still ahead.
- Charles Schumer on Dad
- Baseball is the president tossing out the first ball of the season. And a scrubby schoolboy playing catch with his dad on a Mississippi farm.
- Ernie Harwell on Dad
- Because I was starting out in my 20's. I wanted to do it on my own. I didn't want to use my dad or have people say I was using him.
- Rosanne Cash on Dad
- Because of my father, we are that Shining City on a Hill.
- Michael Reagan on Dad
- Becoming a dad means you have to be a role model for your son and be someone he can look up to.
- Wayne Rooney on Dad
- Becoming a dad was the proudest moment of my life. Playing football does not even compare.
- Wayne Rooney on Dad
- Before breaking into music, I had various jobs: forklift driver, driving a courier. But I was forced into working rather than doing it off my own bat because that was my dad's way: you got a job and paid your way.
- Gary Numan on Dad
- Before, I guess, mum and dad were everything, but now, in my case, I had two new girls and all of a sudden they're completely dependent on you and there's a third generation. It's a funny shift all of a sudden. You have the babies, you have yourself and then you have your parents.
- Roger Federer on Dad
- Being a father to my family and a husband is to me much more important than what I did in the business.
- Tom Bosley on Dad
- Being a father, being a friend, those are the things that make me feel successful.
- William Hurt on Dad
- Being an only child, I didn't have any other family but my mom and dad really, since the rest of my family lived quite far away from London.
- Both my mum and dad were great readers, and we would go every Saturday morning to the library, and my sister and I had a library card when we could pass off something as a signature, and all of us would come with an armful of books.
- Geraldine Brooks on Dad
- But although Australia was also involved in the Vietnam conflict, I can remember my dad telling us that if we were in Australia, we wouldn't be drafted until we were 20.
- Mel Gibson on Dad
- But Dad and I are the only father-and-daughter acts who have both had No. 1 songs in England.
- Lily Allen on Dad
- But I have to be careful not to let the world dazzle me so much that I forget that I'm a husband and a father.
- Herbie Hancock on Dad
- But I honestly don't read critics. My dad reads absolutely everything ever written about me. He calls me up to read ecstatic reviews, but I always insist that I can't hear them. If you give value to the good reviews, you have to give value to the criticism.
- Fiona Apple on Dad
- But more importantly, I think he remembered how very close I was with my own dad, who had died in 1997.
- Richard Marx on Dad
- But my dad also was a remarkable man, a good person, a principled individual, a man of integrity.
- Sidney Poitier on Dad
- But my father was also the one who told me I needed to clean up my mouth or I'd never find a man. What's very important to him is manners. Show up on time. Always send thank-you letters. He is one of the more thoughtful humans I've ever met. He's a great man and a very good dad.
- Zosia Mamet on Dad
- But the love of adventure was in father's blood.
- Buffalo Bill on Dad
- But there's no substitute for a full-time dad. Dads who are fully engaged with their kids overwhelmingly tend to produce children who believe in themselves and live full lives.
- Tony Dungy on Dad
- But while mum and dad were incredibly caring, it was also a very chaotic household where everyone fought about everything. So I know what it's like to internalize all that chaos.
- Dave Eggers on Dad
- But you know, my dad called me the laziest white kid he ever met. When I screamed back at him that he was putting down a race of people to call me lazy, his answer was that's not what he was doing, and that I was also the dumbest white kid he ever met.
- Norman Lear on Dad
