Always do right. This will gratify
some people and astonish the rest.
~Mark Twain
Always keep your words soft
and sweet, just in case
you have to eat them.
Be true to your teeth,
or they'll be false to you.
Be wary of strong drink.
It can make you shoot
at tax collectors and miss.
Before you criticize someone,
walk a mile in their shoes.
That way you're a mile away,
and you have their shoes too.
Cooking lesson #1:
Don't fry bacon in the nude.
Eat a live toad in the morning
and nothing worse will happen
to you for the rest of the day.
Eat your spinach and you'll grow
up big and strong like Popeye.
You'll also end up with a woman
that looks like Olive Oyl.
Growl all day and
you'll be dog tired at night.
If at first you DO succeed,
try not to look astonished!
If you and your friend are being
chased by a grizzly bear,
don't worry about out-running
the bear, just worry about
out-running your friend.
If you lend someone $20, and
never see that person again,
it was probably worth it.
If you think nobody
cares if you're alive,
try missing a couple
of car payments.
If you think your wife's
jewelry is an investment,
try selling a few pieces.
It is better to keep your
mouth shut, and look like a fool,
than to open your mouth,
and remove all doubt.
It's nice to be important,
but more important to be nice.
It's always darkest before dawn.
So if you're going to steal
the neighbor's newspaper,
that's the time to do it.
Take the time to be right.
It's faster than being wrong.
The easiest way to find
something lost around the
house is to buy a replacement
Work like you don't need money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody is looking.
Finally, brethren,
whatsoever things are true,
whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue,
and if there be any praise,
THINK ON THESE THINGS.
~Phil. 4:8
