Hugh Jackman Quotes About Fathers

Quotes about: Fathers

• Becoming a father, I think it inevitably changes your perspective of life. I don't get nearly enough sleep. And the simplest things in life are completely satisfying. I find you don't have to do as much, like you don't go on as many outings.

So anything to do with education or learning, my father would spare no expense.
