Clifton Fadiman quotes - page 2

My son is 7 years old. I am 54. It has taken me a great many years to reach that age. I am more respected in the community, I am stronger, I am more intelligent and I think I am better than he is. I don't want to be a pal, I want to be a father. (Clifton Fadiman)
Experience teaches you that the man who looks you straight in the eye, particularly if he adds a firm handshake, is hiding something. View quote
