90% of being smart is knowing what you're dumb at. A clear conscience is merely the result of bad memory.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking. A few read, still fewer think, and a very few who do both. A man is known by the silence he keeps... A person in a passion rides a mad horse. All rising to a great place is by a winding stair. All things are difficult before they are easy. Assume the worst, you'll never be disappointed. Be bold in what you stand for and careful what you fall for. Best way to be useful stay out of the way. Better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot. Beware of a half truth; you may be getting the wrong half. Common sense is the least common of all senses. Conclusion: the place where you got tired of thinking. Discoveries are made by not following instructions. Doing it the hard way is always easier. Don't let your superiors know you're superior to them. Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do! Don't question authority, it doesn't know either. Don't try to make friends; try not to make enemies. Enlightenment is not a destination, but a journey. Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. Even a hawk is an eagle among crows. Evil will triumph if good men do nothing. Experience is a hard school; a fool learns in no other. Find something to die for, or you have no reason to live. First things first... nothing can be easier than that! Forgetfulness of self is remembrance of God. Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate. Friends don't need explanations, enemies don't believe 'em. From listening comes wisdom, from speaking, repentance. God could and would, if he were sought. Great minds discuss ideas; Small ones, people. He is truly wise who gains wisdom from another's mishap. He who has imagination without learning has wings but no feet. He who has no fire in himself cannot warm others. He who is good for making excuses, is seldom good for anything else. He who throws mud loses ground. I saw what you did and I know who you are. If everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. If you trade freedom for security, you get neither. If your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt. Ignorance is a *fault*, not an excuse. Imagination is more important than knowledge Einstein.

Important principles may and must be inflexible Lincoln. In order for something to become clean, something else must become dirt. In times of peace prepare for war. It's a poor workman who blames his tools. It's better to burn out, than to fade away. It's easier to be critical than to be correct. It's easier to get forgiveness than permission. It's time you learned that freedom is never a gift. Knowledge rests not on truth alone, but upon error also. Laugh at yourself before anyone else can... Liberty is from God. Liberties, from the devil. Life is fragile... handle with prayer... Live every day like it's your last. One day it will be. Many are educated... few are learned. Men fight for freedom, then pass laws to take it away. Mental Floss prevents Moral Decay. Money can't buy happiness, but allows a choice of misery. Most people deserve each other. Never appeal to his better nature. He may not have one. Never argue with a fool people might not know the difference. No one test the depth of a river with both feet. Nothing is as inevitable as a mistake whose time has come. Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative. Open your ears before your mouth. Patience and time do more than strength or passion. People who talk about their inferiors don't have any. Professionals built the Titanic. Amateurs built the Ark. Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance. Roses smell better than onions but make bad soup. Rudeness is a weak person's imitation of strength. Self righteousness is the leading cause of blindness. Small is beautiful. Some drink from the fountain of knowledge, others gargle. Some minds should be cultivated, others plowed under. Spare yourself many hard falls; don't jump to conclusions. Success is a happy family. Success is just a matter of luck. Ask any failure. Teaching a pig to sing wastes your time and annoys the pig. That was then, this is now. The best lessons are learned by doing, or at least trying. The best prophet of the future is the past. The best solution uses the fewest assumptions. The best way to keep your friends is not to give them away. The best way to save face is to keep the lower part shut. The color of truth is grey. The fault lies not in our stars but in ourselves.

The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion. The longer a man is wrong, the surer he is that he's right. The only successful substitute for brains: Silence! The road to success is always under construction. The scenery only changes for the lead dog. The shortest route always has the steepest hills. The wise shepherd never trusts his flock to a smiling wolf. The wrong way always seems the more reasonable. The young know the rules, the old know the exceptions. There are none so blind as those who will not see. There is always free cheese in a mousetrap. Things are never as good or as bad as first reported. Think carefully before wishing, it might just come true. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Those who follow like sheep are bound to get fleeced. Those who look for "hate" usually find it. Those who speak only to save face end up falling on it. Those who won't think will have it done for them. Three sides to every story Yours, Mine, Truth. To fight the good fight, survive the first assault. To laugh at men of sense is the privilege of fools. To refuse praise is to seek praise twice. To save one life is better than to build a seven story pagoda. Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. Two days from now, tomorrow will be yesterday. Watch where you go... remember where you've been... We are not beaten when we loose, we're beaten when we quit. We have found the enemy and he is us. Wear old clothes when you fight for truth and liberty. What you don't do is always more important than what you do do. When Morality is thrown to the wind Humanity is but dust. When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other. Whenever anyone promises heaven on earth, expect hell. Wisdom is knowing when to avoid perfection. Wise men still seek Him. You are making progress if each mistake is a new one. You can't get out more than you put in. You can't win. You can't break even. You can't even quit the game. You cannot kill time without injuring eternity. You get what you pay for. You're never a loser until you quit trying. You've gotta be careful about calling kettles black.

After all is said and done, more is said than done. Anything you say will be misquoted and used against you. Assume the worst, you'll never be disappointed. Avoid the 5 o'clock traffic, leave work at noon. Better to be thought stupid than to speak and confirm it. Beware of a half truth; you may be getting the wrong half. Diplomacy: the art of letting someone else have your way. Discoveries are made by not following instructions. Do the impossible and your boss will add it to your duties. Don't cloud the issue with facts. Don't let your superiors know you're superior to them. Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do! Don't question authority, it doesn't know either. Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. Every job requires a tool that you don't have. Every time I have all the answers, they change questions! First things first... nothing can be easier than that! From listening comes wisdom, from speaking, repentance. Give a man an inch, and he thinks he's a ruler. He said: Smile, things could be worse! I did! They were! He who is good for making excuses, is seldom good for anything else. I came... I saw... I had NO idea what was going on... I can't remember if I used to know that. I saw what you did and I know who you are. I used to be disgusted, but now I try to be amused. I would if I could but I can't so I won't. If all the world's a stage I sure got lousy seats... If everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. If you have nothing to do, don't do it here. If you trade freedom for security, you get neither. If your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt. It's easier to be critical than to be correct. It's easier to get forgiveness than permission. It's hard to soar with Eagles when surrounded by Turkeys! Let's face it, I'm right and you're not convinced! Like I said before, I don't repeat myself! Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot. Meetings will continue until productivity improves. Mondays are the potholes in the road of life. My mind's made up. Don't confuse me with the facts. Never appeal to his better nature. He may not have one. Never argue with a fool people might not know the difference. Never itch for anything you aren't willing to scratch for. Never mind what road we're on... keep your eyes on the carrot! Never put off till tomorrow what you can ignore entirely. No matter which side of the door the cat or dog is on, it's the wrong side.

Oh yea? If you're so smart, why don't I understand you? On what conclusion do you base your facts? Once, I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken. Onward and backward! We must look busy. Open your ears before your mouth. Our biggest problem is apathy but who cares? Pardon our dust... nonsense under construction. People are always available for work in the past tense. Professionals built the Titanic. Amateurs built the Ark. Roses smell better than onions but make bad soup. Secrecy at my job prevents me from knowing what I do. Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it. Since I've used all of my sick days, I'm calling in dead. Some days you're a bug, other days a windshield. Sometimes the only solution is to find a new problem. Sure, easy for you to say, you don't have to eat it. Sure, they'll believe it. Just stamp it SECRET. Talk is cheap, because supply exceeds demand. Teaching a pig to sing wastes your time and annoys the pig. Team effort: A lot of people doing what I say. Thank you for not breathing while I smoke. The First Myth of Management It exists. The longer a man is wrong, the surer he is that he's right. The more I get done, the more I have to do... The only successful substitute for brains: Silence! The road to success is always under construction. The scenery only changes for the lead dog. The wrong way always seems the more reasonable. The young know the rules, the old know the exceptions. There is always free cheese in a mousetrap. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. True idiot-proofing is impossible the idiots are so clever. Two wrongs don't make a right, but they make a good excuse. Watch where you go... remember where you've been... We have standards and expect you not to exceed them. We should go metric every inch of the way! We're lost, but we're making good time. Welcome to the jungle. Please observe our laws. What you don't do is always more important than what you do do. When a subject becomes obsolete, it becomes required. When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other. Why can't you be a non-conformist like everyone else? You can't win. You can't break even. You can't even quit the game. Your call will be answered in the order it was ignored.
