If the human race is one of the few species to learn from the mistakes of others.....
Why is it that so many of us show such disinclination to do so?.....

If God Created the Universe, He did so in a way that it could create itself.

"Life does not forgive weakness."
"When you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you." "It is nobler to declare oneself wrong than to insist on being right - especially when one is right." "Don't worry about those who talk about you behind your back, they're behind you for a reason." "The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them." "The best revenge is massive success." I could post many more, including great ones in German but I don't think they will keep their meaning if I translate them. |

I had just finished feeding my dog when I remembered a quote my grandfather used to tell me back in Germany. Can't believe it slipped my mind. I'm not sure where this saying originates but this is the English version:
"You don't drown by falling in the water, you drown by staying there." |

" DOOOOHHHHHHH !!! " Who else but Homer Simpson.
Never did I see a wild thing feel sorry for itself. A Bird will fall frozen from a branch. Without ever feeling sorry for itself. Edgar Alan Poe. That's one stupid Bird I reckon.

Man is the unnatural animal, the rebel child of nature, and more and more does he turn himself against the harsh and fitful hand that reared him.

What about some Classic Monty Python.
" I Fart in your direction, King Arthur " " Is that all you've got " " He's not the Messiah, He's a very naughty boy " " Were not the Judean people's front. Were the Peoples front of Judea." " Always look on the Bright side of life " - Whistle, Whistle. " Were all impressed down here, I can tell you." " Just one more Mint "

Crocodile Dundee: "Well, you see, Aborigines don't own the land.They belong to it. It's like their mother. See those rocks? Been standing there for 600 million years. Still be there when you and I are gone. So arguing over who owns them is like two fleas arguing over who owns the dog they live on."

I alway say to my apprentices "if Stephen Hawkins is so smart, why can't he walk?" Usually followed by "get back under there and stop complaining". I also like the Simpsons quote "beer, the cause and solution to all of life's problems"

Dont throw stones in a glass house. Impossible is impractical, but it can be done with a few tricks up your sleeve

On predicting a close result - "it's harder to pick than a broken nose"
A negative assessment of a rival's intelligence - "If brains were dynamite he wouldn't have enough to blow his nose". Another one from Cheech & Chong - "If he had another brain it'd die of loneliness". And my favourite quote is in my signature.

One I use at work:
"It's hard to soar like an Eagle when you are surrounded by Turkeys" Another one I like is: "Stupidity is doing the same thing over and expecting a different result" Or
