Words To Live By

Categories
Lifestyle

During the course of the year I write down qoutes which are inspirational, right on or educational.  Here is my latest list:

 

 

  1. Winners don't always win because they're better than everybody else, but frequently because they outlast everybody, there are a fewer competitors down the road.  (Bob Lefsetz – my Oracle)
  2. I've always thought it was easier to ask forgiveness than permission. (Kurt Bardella)
  3. You can't get ahead in life laying in bed with the covers over your head. (Jackie Klein)
  4. Truly understanding and asserting your will when the body is gone is as monumentally daunting as climbing Mount Everest. (Alex  Finlayson)
  5. You cannot tell how soon will be too late. (Mathew Brady)
  6. Until one has loved an animal part of the soul remains unawakened. (Tag line of pet insurance company)
  7. Second thoughts are the bane of inspiration and creativity. (Anonymous)
  8. You are impulsive, compulsive and repulsive (Anonymous)
  9. What would you do if you weren't afraid? (Sheryl Sandberg)
  10. Life is a (fill in the blank) sandwich and every day is another bite. (Anonymous)

 

Do have anything to add?

I have this comment about #7 of Fred's list: Lefties are too creative to allow second thoughts - ruins the whole thing.

I save quotes from time to time. Below find two recorded this year.

“Giving is a reliable way of mediating social interactions, a productive form of OCD.”
-Fred Klein, April 1, 2013 (email)

It hurts, but the truth is hating is done by an underclass of people pissed that their dreams have not come true. Instead of looking inside, instead of working harder, instead of figuring out the problem is the system and not them, they needle those who are successful in an effort to make them feel bad.
