“I am a product of endless books. My father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. There were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...In the seemingly endless rainy afternoons I took volume after volume from the shelves. I had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.” MenTwoBookFatherWalksRoomsStudyFieldsProductsFindingsDrawingEndlessShouldersCertaintyGrassAfternoonVolumeBedroomShelvesBladesLandingRainyGreat BookAtticsBlades Of GrassBookcases Author:C.

“The factory of love encompasses all, but on some days, does it seem to be one of suffocation, squeezing its target too tightly? And on other days not tight enough? Or maybe that is the breath of a living love knowing when to protect, when to release, and when to protect again. For we are the products of an active love - the Father the creator, the Son the perfecter, the Spirit the supervisor - but just like in a factory, to deny the process is to ultimately create a defect of oneself.” DoeEnoughSeemsSpiritFatherProcessKnowingSonProductsProtectBreathsOneselfCreatorDenyActiveReleaseTargetFactoriesDefectsSqueezingSupervisors Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy

“Motherhood goes back in history to a time when a father had no way of knowing his children.

Motherhood is like sun and rain and plants, a quality and product of nature which does not require laws or systems in order to exist.” WayChildrenDoeLawOrderFatherQualityKnownClassSunKnowingProductsRainPlantMotherhoodFatherhoodPatriarchal SocietySun And Rain Author:Nawal El Saadawi
“he hardest obstacle for me has been to find a father. I am the product of three fathers, and my connection to each of them has left me wanting.
