Your father isn’t here to rescue your son. He’s here to murder him.
The only thing a father can ask of his son is to forgive his mistakes.
That’s the difference between raising a son and a daughter. All you do with a daughter is just try to keep her from getting screwed. All you do with a son is try to keep him from screwing himself.
Sons. They either disappoint you or grow too strong and take your place.[to Bruce]
My son. I could cry. Actually, I can’t cry. Damn it.[seeing Harrison]
I know that I’m not the son you wanted, and I know that Elk Grove would rather have a hero who doesn’t live in a trailer, and doesn’t have a boat load of cold sores, but too bad! I am your son, and I’m the only hero Elk Grove has.
[about Jace] He defied me.[Rhaenyra Targaryen]That is what sons do.[Daemon Targaryen]
A son can hate his father, but he cannot disrespect him. It’s not allowed. Dishonors them both.
A son can hate his father and it’s the father’s job to forgive.
A man without sons is a man without a future.
