Sweet father-daughter quotes
Father’s Day is the day set aside each year for appreciating our dads. Every June, dads (or grandpas and husbands) all over eat questionable kid-made food, and some unwrap new socks. (The extra-lucky ones unwrap something from our Father’s Day gift guide.) Gifts are great for showing pops how much you love him, but finding the right words goes a long way too—not to mention some fun Father’s Day activities. Putting some sweet Father’s Day quotes in a card, or even funny Father’s Day quotes, will have Dad suddenly finding “something in his eye.” Sons can get specific with a lovely father-son quote, while daughters can choose one of the touching father-daughter quotes from our list.

“Ordinary father-daughter love had a charge to it that generally was both permitted and indulged. There was just something so beautiful about the big father complementing the tiny girl. Bigness and tininess together at last—yet the bigness would never hurt the tininess! It respected it. In a world in which big always crushes tiny, you wanted to cry at the beauty of big being kind of and worshipful of and being humbled by tiny. You couldn’t help but think of your own father as you saw your little girl with hers.” —Meg Wolitzer.
