Bassy – that quote in your sig reminds me of something a radio personality, Brian Wilson, used to say “we’re just sliding down the razorblade of life.” I forgot where he got it from…Walter Williams???

Re: What's your favorite quotation?

I just went to Brian Wilson’s web pages to see what he’s up to. From there, here’s a quote for ya’ :) <br /><br />Random profound quote of the moment:<br /><br />"Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. Then you'll be a mile away. And you'll have their shoes."

Hope is the companion of power and the mother of success, For those of us who hope strongest have within us the gift of miracles. --Sydney Bremer <br />________________________________________________<br />In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. -- Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968) <br />________________________________________________<br />Instead of a trap door, what about a trap window? The guy looks out it, and if he leans too far, he falls out. Wait. I guess that's like a regular window. --Jack Handy

I think these are good:<br /><br />We are all here for a spell; get all the good laughs you can. <br />Will Rogers (1879-1935) <br /><br />We are not abandoning our convictions, our philosophy or traditions, nor do we urge anyone to abandon theirs. <br />Mikhail Gorbachev <br /><br />We boil at different degrees. <br />Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) <br /><br />We are not retreating - we are advancing in another Direction. <br />Douglas MacArthur, General (1880-1964)

I don't like clowns. I think they are creepy. It may have something to do with the fact that when I was a child my parents took me to the circus and a clown killed my dad.-Jack Handy

Re: What's your favorite quotation?

Dunaruna, that reminds me of a statement made to Jaguar owner, by the Jaguar dealer I worked next door to back in 1975. The car would leak every time it rained and the customer was getting upset. The dealer told him that "Gentlemen do not drive their Jaguars in the rain." <br /><br />The customer got back in his car and promptly drove next door to the Porsche dealer that I worked for and traded the Jag in on a new 911.

Re: What's your favorite quotation?

Hah! The Rolls & Jaguar stories remind me of my old MG midget. It reminds me of an old joke we British car owners used to tell...<br /><br /> Q: Why do the British drink warm beer? <br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br /> A: Because all of their refrigerators are made by Lucas Electronics <br /><br /> :D
