The voice of parents is the voice of gods, for to their children they are heaven's lieutenants.

Early rising is also essential to the good government of a family. A late breakfast deranges the
whole business of the day, and throws a portion of it on the next, which opens the door for confusion to enter. (preface, The Virginia House-Wife, 1824)

Pearl S. Buck
Nor need we power or splendor, wide hall or lordly dome; The good, the true, the tender -- these form the wealth of home.
