3. A young successful attorney said: "The greatest gift I ever received was a gift I got when my Dad gave me a small box. Inside was a note saying, 'Son, this year I will give you 365 hours, an hour every day after dinner. It's yours. We'll talk about what you want to talk about, we'll go where you want to go, play what you want to play. It will be your hour!'"

4. Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance. --Ruth E. Renkel

5. When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years. --Mark Twain

6. By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong. -- Charles Wadsworth

7. Be kind to thy father, for when thou were young, who loved thee so fondly as he? He caught the first accents that fell from thy tongue, and joined in thy innocent glee. -- Margaret Courtney

8. If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right. -- Bill Cosby

9. By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder – infinitely prouder – to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, 'Our Father who art in Heaven.‘ -- Gen. Douglas MacArthur By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder – infinitely prouder – to be a father.
