Ví dụ
Always believing that man was but one remove from animals, and that the child is father to the man, Suschitzky specialised in child portraits that broke with the studio stereotype.

The viewer who comes to this scene expecting the sort of resolution in which the hero’s recognition of his repressed homosexuality gives him a new lease on life will be disappointed. No such easy answers here. Instead, there’s a wealth of compassion, and a hushed apprehension of the minefields unavoidable in every human life. Wordsworth wrote, “The child is father to the man.” Moonlight shows us that a desolated child may be father to a stifled man.
