“For a wonderful physical tie binds the parents to the children; and—by some sad, strange irony—it does not bind us children to our parents.

― E.M. Forster, Where Angels Fear to Tread

“I became quietly seized with that nostalgia that overcomes you when you have reached the middle of your life and your father has recently died and it dawns on you that when he went he took some of you with him.”
― Bill Bryson, The Lost Continent: Travels in Small-Town America
