“My mum's parents were from Ireland, my dad's mum was American-Irish.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
I've hung out at dozens of playgrounds, bored out of my mind, with not even a look of comfort from disapproving mothers all around me. Either they think I'm a pedophile or a deadbeat dad. That's what I get for being a single dad - suspicious looks at the playground.
Because I was starting out in my 20's. I wanted to do it on my own. I didn't want to use my dad or have people say I was using him.
I suppose not everyone has a dad who wrote a book saying he didn't believe in the Parliamentary road to socialism.
I have always had the feeling I could do anything and my dad told me I could. I was in college before I found out he might be wrong.
