The human father has to be confronted and recognized as human, as man who created a child and then, by his absence, left the child fatherless and then Godless.
Anais Nin
I think in today's society we are dealing with an epidemic of fatherless homes. We're turning everywhere else for people to be fathered.
Andy Mineo
I was in the middle of filming Season 3 of 'Grace and Frankie.' Then the writing process for 'Mystery Science Theater 3000' was happening at the exact same time. And then the pre-production for 'Fatherless' was happening at the exact same time as well.
Baron Vaughn
In the decades since my youth, I've witnessed the explosion of fatherless families and an exponential increase in illiteracy and crime.
Burgess Owens
I love having my son in my life. That's why it's more fathers in the hip-hop community, because they probably went through a fatherless childhood like I did.
Cam'ron
When you grow up a fatherless son, in many ways you have to raise yourself. No one tells you what looks good on you, how to carry yourself, or provides the approval. Without a father, you grow up never knowing what you didn't have. There is no intimate model of who you want to become, so it's as if you're always guessing.
John Hickenlooper
I don't think there is such a definition of a perfect family, but I do think that our marriages are in crisis. Our families are in crisis. And I think the African-American family is at one of the worst stages it's been at in a very long time in this country. Fatherlessness is rampant.
Leah Ward Sears
In reality the world is as full of bad mothers as it is of bad fathers, and it is not the motherless children who become delinquent but the fatherless ones.
Louis de Bernieres
My father died when I was seven. I guess I am interested in fatherlessness as a metaphor for vulnerability and unprotectedness. Being on your own in the world in a way you're not quite ready for, ever.
Mary Gordon
Addiction's some kind of disease? No, it's not. It's a mask for pain that usually comes from childhood and fatherlessness.
Mike Lindell
As fathers commonly go, it is seldom a misfortune to be fatherless; and considering the general run of sons, as seldom a misfortune to be childless.
Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield
A fatherless boy raised in Jim Crow Texas, my dad was a tenacious autodidact, the first in his family to get a college degree.
Thomas Chatterton Williams
Fatherlessness didn't strike me as being an event. It was a state of life.
Tom Stoppard
We have a number of difficulties facing our nation, but I believe fatherlessness is right at the top of the list.
