Mark Twain said: " When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years."
My own favorite quotes about Dad's day changes with time. Currently I'm reading Jim Valvano and my favorite quote is : My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me. Jim Valvano.

My Mom told me this, and now as a father - I grew up without one -
I remember it daily.
'The greatest gift a man can give his children is to love their Mom 100%'
Don't know if this was borrow or it was family lore.
Its stuck with me. 3 great kids
