Father's Day Top Quotes for the Greatest Dads

Mother's have the market cornered when it comes to everything from love songs to books. Mothers just seem to be more appreciated than father's because they are the ones who give birth but a father and a great dad should be honored just as much as a mother.

A father should be honored not because he helped create you but because he is or was a great man. We all know by now that there are two types of parents, there are the bad ones and then there are the Mother's and Father's. There is a difference. Having a child does not make someone a parent.

Consider getting a blank card this father's day and filling it with your own words of love. If you're a blank slate, you can always consider using a great quote from the many people in history that had great things to say about fathers.

Father's Day Top Quotes For The Greatest Dads #5

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.' -- Douglas MacArthur
