I think you can tell a lot from a favorite saying...

My favorite is:
“Speak softly and carry a big stick."
- Roosevelt, Teddy

Gene Howe

"Anyone who has begun to think places some portion of the world in jeopardy."
- Dewey, John

NKYDarrell

I don't know the authors of either of these:


“If you ever need a helping hand you'll find one at the end of your arm”



War does not determine who is right - only who is left.

Leo G

That's the theory.

As my father always said in reference to borrowing anything...

"You break it, you bought it."

One from my Grandfather when ever something went wrong...

"Better you than me."

Don't look at me for advice, you have to live with her, I can leave anytime. You do what you think will make her happy.

I like and often use, "No good deed goes unpunished." Also "The path to hell is paved with good intentions." Both fit well in my line of work.

"People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them." Dave Barry

"The Democrats seem to be basically nicer people, but they have demonstrated time and again that they have the management skills of celery." Dave Barry

"Violence and smut are of course everywhere on the airwaves. You cannot turn on your television without seeing them, although sometimes you have to hunt around" Dave Barry

"It always rains on tents. Rainstorms will travel thousands of miles, against prevailing winds for the opportunity to rain on a tent." Dave Barry
