The boy should be proud of father or stepfather. I don't want him to be ashamed in front of other young animals. The kids are cruel creatures.

You know, I was praying that I was born a daughter, every night was praying, when your mother was pregnant. "Lord, please! Anything, just not the son - not another me!" "Anything, just not another kind of idiot." "Anything, just not another pretty boy-adventurer". "Do anything".

Love is blind. We both tried to give our sons, not what was necessary for them, what was necessary for us. We were so busy trying to fix our past that destroyed their present.
Love blinds. We have both tried to give our sons, not what they needed, but what we needed. We've been so busy trying to rewrite our own pasts, we've blighted their present.

- You get to be a father.
- It's not rocket science.
Yeah, thought Vic. It is more difficult.

- You loved me once I was born, right?
- No, before that, you still had to be born, and I already loved you.

- Despite the lack of example?
- You know what it's like to grow up without a father. And you don't allow your child to feel the same pain.

Lamarr became a father first by necessity, and then on their own. Thanks to the child, which became henceforth the sole object of his attention, he discovered a whole new side of life that previously felt impossible: a stupid, causeless laughter, funny faces, naive lullaby, anxiety, when a child for the first time the temperature rises, why is he all red like burning embers.

The strength and the happiness of fatherhood, his poetry lies in the fact to squeeze a family in arms, and not to consider it.
