"Pay attention it is the easiest thing to afford."
What I tell someone that pisses and moans about doing something

Just thought of something my dad used to say when I was leaving to go to work or just a trip.
"Take your time going, but hurry back."

When you are your own priest, it is always easier to get a dispensation for whatever it is you want to do.
Sometimes you're just collateral damage in someone's war with themselves.
The hardest thing of all is to find a black cat in a dark room, especially if there's no cat...
Sometimes you have to hug the people you don't like... so you know how big a hole to dig in your backyard!
A ship in harbor is safe... but that's not what ships were built for.

But it went something like this:

"There's not a joy the world can give, like that it takes away." - Byron
"If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present." - Lao Tzu
"Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested." - Francis Bacon
And of course a list of quotes isn't complete without some Eleanor.
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
And maybe one that people on here need to remember from time to time....
"Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."

Dad always says “where there’s a will there’s a way”
Something relevant to today’s world from George Orwell
“ During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act”
“So long as they (the Proles) continued to work and breed, their other activities were without importance. Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern...Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult”

I have heard young ducks fart in shallow water before.
You can always tell a man from Sask,but you cant tell him much.
When you get to the end of your rope tie a knot and hold on.
When you find your self in a hole,first thing to do is throw away that shovel.

My wife has a good one:
Better is the enemy of good.
It is amazing how often that one holds true. How many times do you decide to make just one more adjustment to something, and end up regretting it.
One of her relatives back in USSR used to say, when asked how is it going:
Used to be bad, now it is worse.

Better is the enemy of good. I like that, and very true.
The mouth is the enemy of the neck, also comes to mind.
