"It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly
so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.”

They said it couldn't be done. So I didn't even try.

Not words to live by, but another gem from Grandpaw.

Being a man doesn't mean you get to choose what you face in life, it does mean you get to choose how you face it. Face it on your feet.

This is me, masterbating in the shower. This will be the high point of my day. It's all downhill from here.

it's easy to grin when your ship comes in and you've got the stock market beat. But, the man worthwhile is the man who can smile when his shorts are too tight in the seat.

I have many. Mostly from Albert Einstein such as:

quote:

If A is success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.


quote:

Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.


And Bruce Lee (yes, Bruce Lee. Even Chuck Norris bowed to Bruce Lee):

quote:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.


ETA:
Always thought this quote by Winston Churchill to Lady Astor was hilarious:
quote:


Lady Astor to Winston Churchill: "Sir, you're drunk!"

Winston Churchill to Lady Astor: "Yes, Madam, I am. But in the morning, I will be sober and you will still be ugly."



Winston Churchill would have posted on the OT if the OT existed then or if he were alive today.
