It was times like these when I
thought my father, who hated guns
and had never been to any wars,
was the bravest man who ever lived.
Harper Lee,
To Kill a Mockingbird
12
Never could I expect to be so
truly beloved and important; so
always first and always right
in any man’s eyes as
I am in my father’s.”
Jane Austen,
Emma
Your father, Jo. He never loses
patience – never doubts or
complains – but always hopes,
and works and waits so cheerfully
that one is ashamed to do
otherwise before him.
Louisa May Alcott,
Little Women
