Oh my son's my
son till he gets him a wife, but my daughter's my daughter
all her life.
-- Dinah Mulock Craik
How the mother
is to be pitied who hath handsome daughters! Locks, bolts,
bars, and lectures of morality are nothing to them: they
break through them all. They have as much pleasure in
cheating a father and mother, as in cheating at cards.
-- John Gay
1688-1732, British
Playwright, Poet
You teach your
daughters the diameters of the planets and wonder when you
are done that they do not delight in your company.
-- Samuel Johnson
1709-1784, British Author
I only have
two rules for my newly born daughter: she will dress well
and never have sex.
-- John Malkovich
