P. L. Travers

Every child needs to have for itself not only its loving parents and siblings and friends of its own age, but a grown-up friend.

My father died when I was 7. I was his favorite child, and he was my beloved father. I brought him along with me all through my life. Every elderly man has a bit of my father in him for me.
