I'm not a good father and they're not children any more; the eldest is in his fifties. My relationship with their mothers broke down and, because of what the law was, they went with their mothers and were imbued with their mothers' morality in life and they were not my people any more.

  • -- Wilbur Smith 威尔伯·史密斯

我不是一个好父亲,他们也不再是孩子了;老大五十多岁了。我与他们母亲的关系破裂了,因为律法的缘故,他们与母亲同去,在生活中充满了母亲的道德,他们就不再是我的子民了。
