To lose one's self in reverie, one must be either very happy, or very unhappy. Reverie is the child of extremes.
daydream quotes by LOGAN PEARSALL SMITH-1480271343
How many of our daydreams would darken into nightmares, were there a danger of their coming true!
daydream quotes by W.H. AUDEN-1480255903
A daydream is a meal at which images are eaten. Some of us are gourmets, some gourmands, and a good many take their images precooked out of a can and swallow them down whole, absent-mindedly and with little relish.
daughters quotes by BILL COSBY-1480254431
A father... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.
daughters quotes by ELIZABETH DEBOLD AND IDELISSE MALAVE-1480252869
Suddenly, through birthing a daughter, a woman finds herself face to face not only with an infant, a little girl, a woman-to-be, but also with her own unresolved conflicts from the past and her hopes and dreams for the future.... As though experiencing an earthquake, mothers of daughters may find their lives shifted, their deep feelings unearthed, the balance struck in all relationships once again off kilter.
daughters quotes by VICTORIA SECUNDA-1480245367
A father is available to help his daughter balance both her love and her anger toward her mother, to moderate the inevitable emotional extremes in the intense mother-daughter equation. With Daddy's steadying influence daughters can learn to be comfortable with healthy anger, rather than feeling that they must be eternal good girls who must at all costs conceal it.
daughters quotes by MARTIN ANDERSEN-NEX?-1480243636

daughters quotes by GLORIA STEINEM-1480242035
We've begun to raise daughters more like sons, but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.
daughters quotes by VICTORIA SECUNDA-1480240551
And mothers are their daughters' role model, their biological and emotional road map, the arbiter of all their relationships.
daughters quotes by GARRISON KEILLOR-1480238123
The father of a daughter is nothing but a high-class hostage. A father turns a stony face to his sons, berates them, shakes his antlers, paws the ground, snorts, runs them off into the underbrush, but when his daughter puts her arm over his shoulder and says, 'Daddy, I need to ask you something,' he is a pat of butter in a hot frying pan.
daughters quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1480236851
Daughters are like flowers, they fill the world with beauty, and sometimes attract pests.
daughters quotes by VICTORIA SECUNDA-1480234135

As long as a woman can look ten years younger than her own daughter, she is perfectly satisfied.
daughters quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1480177227
A daughter is a mother's gender partner, her closest ally in the family confederacy, an extension of her self.
daughters quotes by JAMES T. ADAMS-1480174157
Any astronomer can predict with absolute accuracy just where every star in the universe will be at 11.30 tonight. He can make no such prediction about his teenage daughter.
daughters quotes by PETER USTINOV-1480172937
I have three daughters and I find as a result I played King Lear almost without rehearsal.
daughters quotes by THOMAS JEFFERSON-1480163726
A lively and lasting sense of filial duty is more effectually impressed on the mind of a son or daughter by reading King Lear, than by all the dry volumes of ethics, and divinity, that ever were written.
daughters quotes by ENGLISH PROVERB-1480162164
He that would the daughter win, must with the mother first begin.

If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.
daughters quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1480141881

daughters quotes by JOHN GAY-1480140337
How the mother is to be pitied who hath handsome daughters! Locks, bolts, bars, and lectures of morality are nothing to them: they break through them all. They have as much pleasure in cheating a father and mother, as in cheating at cards.
daughters quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1480135486
A daughter is a little girl who grows up to be a friend.

A daughter may outgrow your lap, but she will never outgrow your heart.
daughters quotes by JIM BISHOP-1480094242
Watching your daughter being collected by her date feels like handing over a million dollar Stradivarius to a gorilla.
daughters quotes by JOSEPH ADDISON-1480092938
Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons, ambition; but to our daughters there is something which there are no words to express.
daughters quotes by IRISH SAYING-1480091675
A son is a son till he takes him a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life.

curmudgeon quotes by LEMONY SNICKET-1479962184

Idealism is what precedes experience; cynicism is what follows.
curmudgeon quotes by D.H. MONDFLEUR-1479813465

curmudgeon quotes by BENJAMIN DISRAELI-1479793310
Youth is a blunder; Manhood a struggle; Old Age a regret.
curmudgeon quotes by OCTAVE MIRBEAU-1479791580
You're obliged to pretend respect for people and institutions you think absurd. You live attached in a cowardly fashion to moral and social conventions you despise, condemn, and know lack all foundation. It is that permanent contradiction between your ideas and desires and all the dead formalities and vain pretenses of your civilization which makes you sad, troubled and unbalanced. In that intolerable conflict you lose all joy of life and all feeling of personality, because at every moment they suppress and restrain and check the free play of your powers. That's the poisoned and mortal wound of the civilized world.
curmudgeon quotes by FRED ALLEN-1479790318

We are adhering to life now with our last muscle - the heart.
curmudgeon quotes by EMME WOODHULL-BACHE-1479660229
