What's your favorite, famous (or not) saying?
There are many sayings and one liners that make the rounds of the internet, or that people occasionally use in conversation.
Post your favorites. They can be serious or funny, but let's try to keep them clean and family friendly.
I'll start:
"Don't tell your friends about your indigestion, "How are you" is a greeting, not a question.
OK, what is yours? I'll post more later after you...

Fun thread!
All these quotes are great!
My all time favorite wasn't my favorite growing up, but now when I hear it
(or catch myself saying it  )
I get nostalgic for grandma...

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember it didn't work for the rabbit.
Necessity may be the mother of invention, but play is certainly the father.

For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who don't, no explanation is possible.

Doing it wrong fast is at least better than doing it wrong slowly.
Patriotism is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.

And the rest of it. "use it up, ware it out, make it do, or do without." I got that one from my then 8 year old daughter in reference to a stubby pencil.

I envy you. Convenient memory is a gift from God.
The best inheritance parents can give their children is
