Words of true wisdom
 
Anyone got any good ones? Nuggets of pure gold?
Let's hear them.

My favorite from Thomas Edison:

"Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work."

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world hahaha8212; that is the myth of the atomic age hahaha8212; as in being able to remake ourselves.

Or a good excuse to wipe your ass with your hand..

Code:

BILL:  "Give a man to fish... feed him for a day... Teach a man to fish..."
JIMMY:  "And he spends all his time in the basement tying flies and
        neglecting his personal hygiene."

One of many NewsRadio quotes I've taken to heart, and are oddly useful, and sometimes motivational - this one helps me remember that not everyone gives a shit how it works, they just want it done. Also, that wasting your life on open source shit is retarded. Well, Splum helped with that one, too. :)

Code:

Jimmy: Don't you know the benefits of getting along with a mob?
Dave: No....
Jimmy: Take that mob of villagers that chased Frankenstein through the streets.
    Now, wouldn't it have been smarter for Frankenstein to pick up the
    torch and help the villagers hunt down some other freak?

you know the irony of life is that you have like
this big dream to get where you wanna be
but once you get there you start to dream about where you came from.
I guess thats the part of the circle of our lives
like the hands of a clock going round.
if only we could wind them back and return to a time where the dream began.
its all too soon thats all will be is a dream in someones mind.

finding out what you already know.

Doing is
demonstrating that you know it.

Teaching is
reminding others that they know just as well as you.

We are all learners, doers, and teachers." - Reminders For The Advanced Soul

It's hard enough changing yourself, how much harder is it to change others? If you want your life to change... focus on the only person you can truly control--YOURSELF.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's quotes

A clever man commits no minor blunders.
A man's manners are a mirror in which he shows his portrait.
A really great talent finds its happiness in execution.
Alas! sorrow from happiness is oft evolved.
All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again.
All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own.
An unused life is an early death.
Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, is watchword of the wise.

Those are pretty damn tough........words from ETC and snipping KON
