My father was extremely loving to me and funny and wise and understanding, and at other times extremely demanding, critical, calculating, exacting.

Feminists of my mother’s generation argued that both mom and dad should work a little less and each do some of the household chores. My parents, for example, split everything 50/50. Even though my father is a terrible cook, he still made dinner exactly half the time (My Father Quotes)
My father is one of the few men I’ve known who has genuine humility, and it lends him a natural dignity. He has absolutely no ego drive, and so he is one of the most beloved men in this part of the state (My Father Quotes)
