Sherman made the terrible discovery that men make
about their fathers sooner or later... that the man before him was not an aging
father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up and had a child of
his own and, as best he could, out of a sense of duty and, perhaps love,
adopted a role called Being a Father so that his child would have something
mythical and infinitely important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the
chaotic and catastrophic possibilities of life. ~Tom Wolfe, The Bonfire of the
Vanities
