"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 he had learned in seven years." - Mark Twain

I hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy the day. Happy fathering.

I am just wondering. Is it possible you changed and matured. No insult intended, only that the older a person gets the less likely they are to change.

I think you missed the joke. When you're a teenager you think you know everything. When you get older you find out how much you still have to learn

Incredibly good choice of words Mr. Twain used!

I've always enjoyed this quote as a humorous reminder of the changes we go through in life. No offense taken, the gypsy.

Still completely true TODAY . . . just as it was in Mark Twain's era.
