Life is lk a gumball machiene
If you dont stand for something you"ll fall for anything
Intelligence is lk a river, the deeper it goes the quiter it gets
Dont count your chikens b4 they hatch
Give me a fish ill eat 4 a day, teach me 2 fish and ill eat 4 a lifetime
Success is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration
Joy shared is doubled sorrow shared is halved
An optomist laughs to forget a pessimist forgets 2 laugh
The mind is lk a parachute;it only works when its opened
Whats right isnt always popular and wats popular isnt always right
If youre failing to prepare be prepared to fail
A half truth is a whole lie
Now is a gift,thats why its called the present
Arguments are generally about whats right than whos right
Anger is 1 letter short than danger
A stitch in time saves nine

The best thing about the truth is you dont have to ahve a good memory. (Winston Churchill)
He had many good lines.
A famous one was in parliament a lady said to him "if you were my husband I would poison your tea" Not one to be beaten, he replied "and if you were my wife, I would drink it!"The path to hell is paved with good intentions.
The only thing wasted that cannot be replaced is time!
אם אין אני לי מי לי וכשאני לעצמי מה אני ואם לא עכשיו אמתי

It matters not whether you win or lose. What matters is if I win or lose.
I have had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasnt it.
If your fone doesnt ring, it's me.
I can resist everything except temptation.
You can tell German wine from vinegar by the label.
Anyone who goes to a psychiatrist should have his head examined.
A good lawyer will do anything in his power to win. Sometimes he may even tell the truth.
After a horrific plane crash, the bodies were so badly burned that passengers could only be identified by their dental records. What I dont understand is if they dont know who you are, how do they know who your dentist is?

[If your fone doesnt ring, it's me.
Please explain.]
It's part of a line from an old song about a break-up, like, if she doesn't hear her phone ringing anymore it's because he's not calling anymore. Ie, it's me NOT CALLING.
What we rip, we sew.

A word to the wise ain't necessary; it's the stupid ones that need the advice.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the titanic
Income-tax forms should be more realistic by allowing the tax-payer to list Uncle Sam as a dependant
Foolproof systems don't take into account the ingenuity of fools
An optimist will tell you the glass is half full. A pessimist the glass is half empty. An engineer will tell you the glass is twice the size it needs to be
Ham and eggs; a days work for a chicken; a lifetime commitment for a pig
A line is a dot that went for a walk
If life gives you melons, you may be dyslexic
Knowledge is knowing a tomatoe is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it into a fruit salad

He awoke each morning with the desire to do right, to be a good and meaningful person, to be, as simple as it sounded and as impossible as it actually was, happy. And during the course of each day his heart would descend from his chest into his stomach. By early afternoon he was overcome by the feeling that nothing was right, or nothing was right for him, and by the desire to be alone. By evening he was fulfilled: alone in the magnitude of his grief, alone in his aimless guilt, alone even in his loneliness. I am not sad, he would repeat to himself over and over, I am not sad. As if he might one day convince himself. Or fool himself. Or convince others--the only thing worse than being sad is for others to know that you are sad. I am not sad. I am not sad. Because his life had unlimited potential for happiness, insofar as it was an empty white room. He would fall asleep with his heart at the foot of his bed, like some domesticated animal that was no part of him at all. And each morning he would wake with it again in the cupboard of his rib cage, having become a little heavier, a little weaker, but still pumping. And by the midafternoon he was again overcome with the desire to be somewhere else, someone else, someone else somewhere else. I am not sad.
