Pope Francis Quotes

I'm glad that's one of the things I chose to do as a man - to be a father to my child.

Fatherhood will put a man through a lot, but it's a tremendous job, the best in the world - even better than playing basketball.

Fatherhood is an honor, and men should be strong enough to step up to the plate.

You are not a man until you give your love, truly and freely to a child. And you are not a good man until you earn the love, truly and freely, of a child in return.

Most single guys I know think fatherhood is terrifying.

I love fatherhood. I could bang on about kids forever.

My daughter's the greatest thing that's happened to me in my life and she turned me into a more responsible man, as opposed to just someone who's a perpetual teenager, thinking you're a man when you're not.

I've changed a lot because I am a father.

Guys who feel like it makes you a man to make babies, they're completely misguided. It makes you a man to be a father. And I'm not moralising about marriage or anything.

Fatherhood is great.

Fatherhood has gone and done much more than marriage. It has made me a far more responsible person.

I think you have to be a father to understand those feelings… that happiness of being a father.
