Presents are made for the pleasure of who gives them, not the merits of who receives them.
Carlos Ruiz ZafonPeople tend to complicate their own lives, as if living weren't already complicated enough.
Carlos Ruiz ZafonA good father. A man with a head, a heart, and a soul. A man capable of listening, of leading and respecting a child, and not of drowning his own defects in him.
