"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has limits.

Group :
This is a very good thread....here's some I use on occasion...
"there's always a way"
"we don't know where we're going...but we're making great progress"
I often remind clients (re-divorce)..."it's cheaper to keep her" !!
My father's classic toast..."Here's to you, as good as you are, & to me as bad as I am...but as good as you are & as bad as I am...I'm as good as you are...as bad as I am."
From Albert Einstein..."Not everything that counts can be counted, & not everything that can be counted counts"
About sailing..."someone with little experience that buys a boat & then thinks himself a captain, is like the guy who goes into McDonalds for a big Mac & then thinks he's Mayor McCheese".
About life..."you don't stop laughing when you get old, you get old when you stop laughing"
Finally, this one from Rodney Dangerfield..."It's easy to grin when your ship comes in & you think you have the stock market beat...but the man who's worthwhile is the man who can smile, when his shorts are too tight in the seat".

Thoughts become words, words become actions, actions become habits, habits become character, character becomes destiny.

You can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've heard a few phrases regionally that I normally don't hear at home.
Well I'll be John Brown.
That really tickled me.
That's just ornery.

Making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life.
