The fact my relationship with my son is so good makes me forgiving of my father and also appreciative.

Americans are like a rich father who wishes he knew how to give his son the hardships that made him rich.

My father wouldn't get us a TV, he wouldn't allow a TV in the house.

As a father now, I wouldn't do what my dad did, because it left me feeling emotionally unstable as a kid. But he didn't do the things he did out of selfishness or malice.

I say with all the earnestness that I can command, that if American mothers will teach our children that there is no end to the fight for better relationships among the people of the world, we shall have peace.

Let France have good mothers, and she will have good sons.
