Favorite Quotes


Anybody got a favorite quote they want to share?  It could be funny or inspirational.  Here's mine.


"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."


-I dont know the author.  I got it in an e-mail.

"Don't come in my office to complain about something unless you've got three ideas on how to fix the situation"

-Ron Fritz, a former boss of mine. I always thought that was a good way to deal with whiners. Be constructive or shut up!

-----------

"It's sad to say, but the truth is your friends and family are often your biggest dream killers"

-John Cougar Mellencamp

A depressing thought, but actually very accurate. Often the people who know you best are the ones that think you're crazy when you dream big. But someone who's first meeting you accepts your dreams as a part of who you are.

My favorite is one I always tell my girls.  When they were younger they would always say this isn't fair or that isn't fair.  After hearing that for hours I told them, "There are only three kinds of fair in this world. The county fair, the state fair and the worlds fair. Everything else is not fair so get used to it."


I would make them repeat it when they would whine about 'not fair' stuff.  They got the message and I rarely hear it anymore.

This is one my stepfather used to say whenever I said I wanted something:


Hold out both hands.  Now sh!t in this one and want in that one, and tell me which one is full.


I didn't like my stepfather very much...

Here's a few;


"If you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat."


"Don't sweat the petty things, or pet the sweaty things!"


"Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven."


And one for anyone who has worked in advertising design:


"We, the unwilling, led by the unknowing, working for the ungrateful; have been forced to do so much, with so little, for so long; that we now feel we can create anything from nothing."

"Life's a journey not a destination"-Aerosmith


I realized that was true after my first marriage.  Looking back, I had more fun getting there than being in it.  The destination wasn't life but life was about the journey.

Star, after your first marriage? Is this as opposed to the 5th and 6th?

Well, it was my first marriage because I plan on having a second one!  Is this about bi-polar rollerskaters?  I haven't married one of those.  Although...

Don't know if this counts, it's one of my favorite song lyrics, always makes me laugh.


Elvis Costello from "Red Shoes":  "I said, 'I'm so happy I could die.'  She said, 'Drop dead, then!', left with another guy."

OK, if you want to go into song lyrics:


You've got the right key but the wrong key hole. - Aerosmith


Her body's in the bedroom but her mind's gone out the door. - Sammy Hagar, A Little Bit More


I'm addicted to her, but she's such a dick to me.  - I can't remember the artist, but it is a hard rock/alternative song.

I looked up the lyrics, it's "Addicted" by Lit, which I think is totally different than Simple Plan's song.

Well Sparky, what else were you going to do today? Besides, doesn't almost every thread veer off in another direction for some time?

That's true... Hence my statement in the ? of the day thread about limberger cheese and bi-polar roller skaters.
