You know, the ones that contained a hidden message or pushed you to succeed at a difficult task, or towards a higher level of performance at something.. We call those "Dadism's.

"Keep crying, and I'll give you something to cry about."

"Be sure you leave things better than you found them."

"If you don't have time to do it right, how on earth will you ever find time to do it over."
