21 thought-provoking quotes about fathers

03/15/2025 by

Today I’ve curated some quotes about fathers.

It’s easy to overlook the importance of fathers, and often fathers themselves can overlook the importance of their essential role in life. In particular, fathers can sometimes view their work as a more important role.

I’m not suggesting that work’s not important, because it is, of course. After all, by earning a living, we can put bread on the table and a roof over our heads, as well as those of our loved ones.

Socialising is also important because through it we can relax and alleviate stress.

However, the role of a parent is more important than any of these because children are the future. And children need a father as well as a mother.

As a father, you’re not just a sperm donor. You should be a provider and protector to ensure that children get the best possible start in life.

You should offer support to their mother too, as that will also help your children.

However, more than any of that, to your sons, you’re a role model, and to your daughters, you are an example of how men treat women.

You should also be an authority figure, as it’s important that children are brought up within a moral framework, and they should know where the boundaries are and what the penalties will be should there be any transgression.

Well-adjusted, well-behaved, and well-educated young people are the future of any civilization, and fathers have an important role to play in making that happen.

So today I offer you 21 thought-provoking quotes about fathers to highlight the importance of why I think men have been placed upon this earth.

23 quotes to inspire you to think bigger

03/08/2025 by

Today, let’s explore some quotes to inspire you to think bigger.

If you’re thinking anyway, you might as well think big, or so the saying goes.

Far too many people underestimate their ability, what they can do, and what they can achieve.

If you want to make your mark on this world, you must think big. To make your mark, you’ll need to make a difference. You’ll need to stand out head and shoulders above the crowd.

That can be a lonely place to be, of course. However, the rewards can be extraordinary.

Rewards can be in terms of recognition. They can be financial too. And let’s not forget that such rewards have the potential to include your place in history.

Does that sound a little dramatic?

Well, other people leave their mark on history, so why not you?

Too many people fear trying in case they fail. However, there is no such thing as failure, just opportunities to learn, to hone your skills, and then have another go with a better understanding of what will and won’t work.

You must believe in yourself, dear reader. Self-belief is an essential ingredient for success. Others don’t need to believe in you, but you must feel you have whatever it takes to do it, whatever it is.

Remember, you’re as good as anyone. If you dig deep, you’ve got what it takes.

Here are 23 quotes to inspire you to think bigger.

  6. That’s precisely the question everyone should be asking, why the hell not? Why not you? Why not now? ~Timothy Ferriss
  7. The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavour. ~Vince Lombardi
  8. It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are. ~E. Cummings

33 Quotes by Robin Williams: No 12 really made me smile

03/05/2025 by

He was such an exceptional talent that I thought it would be interesting to take a look back at some quotes by Robin Williams.

The late Robin McLaurin Williams was an American actor and comedian, as I’m sure you’ll know, dear reader.

He was probably best known for his improvisational skills and the wide variety of characters he created on the spur of the moment and portrayed on film, in dramas and comedies alike.

For me, Robin Williams is probably one of the best comic talents of all time, and his passing was the most tremendous loss to the entertainment industry.

So here are 33 great quotes by Robin Williams, and number 12 made me smile.

Enjoy them all, and then please feel free to pass them on.

Make Money

Quotes by Robin Williams (1-15)

Reality: What a concept!

Comedy is acting out optimism.

I love kids, but they’re a tough audience.

Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s party!’

I’m sorry if you were right, I’d agree with you.

Why do they call it rush hour when nothing moves?

Sometimes you have to make a movie to make money.

What’s right is what’s left if you do everything else wrong.

If it’s the Psychic Network, why do they need a phone number?

You’re only given a little spark of madness. You mustn’t lose it.

I was only a leading man for a minute; now I’m a character actor.

Never pick a fight with an ugly person. They’ve got nothing to lose.

No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.

People say satire is dead. It’s not dead; it’s alive and living in the White House.

The Second Amendment says we have the right to bear arms, not to bear artillery.

Quotes by Robin Williams (16-25)

We had gay burglars the other night. They broke in and rearranged the furniture.

Being in the same room with people and creating something together is a good thing.

You have this idea that you’d better keep working; otherwise, people will forget. And that was dangerous.

I do believe in love; it’s wonderful, especially love the third time around, it’s even more precious; it’s kind of amazing.

Do I perform sometimes in a manic style? Yes. Am I manic all the time? No. Do I get sad? Oh yeah. Does it hit me hard? Oh yeah.

I’ve never been asked to appear on ‘I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!‘ so I guess I mustn’t be on the professional skids just yet.

I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel alone.

It’s hard when you read an article saying bad things about you. It is as if someone is sticking a knife in your heart. But I am the harshest critic of my work.

Divorce is expensive. I used to joke they were going to call it ‘all the money,’ but they changed it to ‘alimony.’ It’s ripping your heart out through your wallet.

I only ever play Vegas one night at a time. It’s a hideous, gaudy place; it may not be the end of the world per se, but you can certainly see it from there.

Make Money

Quotes by Robin Williams (26-30)

A woman would never make a nuclear bomb. They would never make a weapon that kills – no, no. They’d make a weapon that makes you feel bad for a while.

I write on big yellow legal pads – ideas in outline form when I’m doing stand-up and stuff. It’s vivid that way. I can’t type it into an iPad – I think that would put a filter into the process.

I left school and couldn’t find acting work, so I started going to clubs where you could do stand-up. I’ve always improvised, and stand-up was this great release. All of a sudden, it was just me and the audience.

Sometimes over things that I did – movies that didn’t turn out very well – you go, ‘Why did you do that?’ But in the end, I can’t regret them because I met amazing people. There was always something that was worth it.

The essential truth is that sometimes you’re worried that they’ll find out it’s a fluke, that you don’t really have it. You’ve lost the muse or – the worst dread – you never had it at all. I went through all that madness early on.

Quotes by Robin Williams (31-33)

I started doing comedy because that was the only stage that I could find. It was the pure idea of being on stage. That was the only thing that interested me, along with learning the craft and working, and just being in productions with people.

The bad thing about being a famous comedian is that every now and then someone approaches me to tell an old joke. Don’t tell me jokes – I have that. People also say the weirdest things, sometimes sarcastic things, and even evil things. They like to provoke to get a reaction.

I basically started performing for my mother, going, ‘Love me!’ What drives you to perform is the need for that primal connection. When I was little, my mother was funny with me, and I started to be charming and funny for her, and I learned that by being entertaining, you make a connection with another person.

21 quotes about moving on that will inspire you

07/02/2023 by

QUOTES ABOUT MOVING ONEvery ending is a new beginning. When one chapter ends, we turn the page and there’s a whole new chapter to explore.

Life is just a series of chapters and not everyone or everything has a place in every chapter. Your story will have many twists and turns before it reaches its conclusion.

It’s natural to feel attached emotionally to the past but we can’t live life through the rearview mirror. We must be positive and embrace the future.

It may move us out of our comfort zone but it’s in that space we’ll grow.

A sentimental longing for people, places and things is natural, of course. However, life is for living. And if we’re to live life to the full we must look ahead and keep moving forward.

So here are 21 thought-provoking quotes about moving on to inspire you.

Having the courage to draw a line under an event or a relationship, or any other life-changing experience, is essential if we’re to become all we could be.

When things end, life doesn’t end. Life goes on and what’s gone is in the past. So leave it there and look forward to the future.

And you can always keep in mind some of these quotes about moving on.

  6. I can enjoy anywhere, and I can leave it. Life is about moving on. ~Waris Dirie

Quotes about moving on (8-14):
