The young need old men. They need men who are not ashamed of age, not pathetic imitations of themselves.... Parents are the bones on which children sharpen their teeth.

Peter Ustinov

The sea is calm you said. Peaceful. Calm above, but below a world of gliding monsters preying on their fellows. Murderers, all of them. Only the strongest teeth survive. And who's to tell me it's any different here on board, or yonder on dry land.

Peter Ustinov

Parents are the bones on which children cut their teeth.
