Fathers Quotes

On presence, pride, and painful reversals.

One quote here makes a direct case that boys need fathers, and specifically that being in Jail makes that presence impossible — a blunt statement about fatherhood and absence. Another, simpler line just states having two fathers, hinting at a less conventional family story without elaborating further.

A wry aside notes that according to fathers, their kids are Good — always, regardless of the truth. The most striking line reverses the natural order entirely: in peace, sons bury their fathers, but in war, fathers bury their sons.
