Joseph Addison

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.
Garrison Keillor

Chris Rock
A daughter may outgrow your lap, but she will never outgrow your heart.

Watching your daughter being collected by her date feels like handing over a million-dollar Stradivarius to a gorilla.
Jim Bishop
Most fathers don’t see the war within the daughter, her struggles with conflicting images of the idealized and flawed father, her temptation both to retreat to Daddy’s lap and protection and to push out of his embrace to that of beau and the world beyond home.
Victoria Secunda

Women’s childhood relationships with their fathers are important to them all their lives. Regardless of age or status, women who seem clearest about their goals and most satisfied with their lives and personal and family relationships usually remember that their fathers enjoyed them and were actively interested in their development.

Bob Odenkirk
The thing to remember about fathers is, they’re men. A girl has to keep it in mind: They are dragon-seekers, bent on improbable rescues. Scratch any father, you find someone chock – full of qualms and romantic terrors, believing change is a threat – like your first shoes with heels on, like your first bicycle it took such months to get.
Phyllis McGinley
I have never been a material girl. My father always told me never to love anything that cannot love you back.
Imelda Marcos
Fathers, be your daughter’s first love and she’ll never settle for anything less.
