Lysander says it to Hermia in Act 1 Scene 1.
Who is Hermia's father in A Midsummer Night's Dream?
Hermia is one of those characters, like Ophelia and the heroine of most Disney movies, who has no mother, and yet the absence of her mother is never explained. The truth is that Hermia's mother is not required by the needs of the drama. Her father is important because he sets up the reason why Hermia should want to flee Athens by insisting that she marry Demetrius. Having a mother onstage would not add anything, and would just be another part where some guy would have to get dressed up in a dress. Shakespeare actually points to the mistake of casting all of the family members for the sake of completeness in Peter Quince's script for Pyramus and Thisbe. In Act I Scene 2 he casts Snout as Pyramus's father, Starveling as Thisbe's mother and himself as Thisbe's father. By the time the play is performed, the parents' parts have been removed, as they are superfluous.
