Hello, This is open to anyone. Please type 2 - 3 individual quotes. These quotes must be thought of on your own.
Two that I made up and use constantly:
If the sky is the limit, why are you still on the ground.
Common sense is definitely not common.
Whenever I doubt my own imagination, I remind myself of all the things I made up to worry about.
"better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" - forget who said it. No doubt someone will help me out ...
"do not mess in the affairs of Dragons. For you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup" - some idiot Dragon
"it's easy being green" - F.R.Dropping
Oh I misunderstood marine. They must all come from the Book of Frog?
LOL Thats alright. Yes, The the thoughts of the frog!
Ok - here you are then:
"being nailed to the wall is always preferable to being ignored" F.R.Dropping
"carrots are not just for christmas" F.R.Dropping
That's three - including the first one
marine - you are dangerously close to getting 200 fans.
I'd get my mad up if I was you.
That's just one too many. And it just gets harder and harder to hide the marmalade.
*walks away shaking head. And grabs a carrot*
Lol, I only comprehended about 40% of what you just said. A frog that eats carrots?
I just had to marine. The irony. Ohhhhhh the irony.
Now you touch me just once with a carrot and there'll be trouble.
Welcome to me
Oh for heavens sake marine. Will you please learn portuguese?
Translated just for you:
You HAD almost 200 fans. I'm trying to hold the 200th one off. And I had a good old moan about it. Having noticed that you had 199 - I pinched your 200th spot for myself.
And I torment my fans with carrots. After I've nailed them to the wall. Which is what all hubbers should do. Didn't your grandma have a fan collection? Mine did. She hailed them all over the damn house. So - I do the same
And I arrange them according to size, colour and whether they are in favour. Or not.
That was very philosophical. I maybe understood around 20% that time. Hail to the fans and carrots. "It's not the power of the fan, it's the fan of power" ?
Not often I come across a conversation I do not understand. Well done guys .
Ha!! Thank the Frog. I have not a clue. lol
marine - humph - what language do you talk? Not frog. Not portuguese. What then?
I can rustle up a little german. And I can do a little american I guess. Janetta taught me.
I only speak St. Bernard. Do you have beef bones? Or chicken treats? I'm not that big on carrots. Was I right on the fan thing?
"shoot for the moon even if you miss you'll end up amongst the stars"
" It's as dark as a pocket"
"Can't get there from here" (better with New England slang)
hmm my best I don't wanna share and risk people stealing it haha
I'll have to think of something
I'll be back!
ok heres one
Pins in the heart I feel them like a voodoo doll
"He was about as deep as a puddle in a drought"- About my ex
"You just have to tell them what you want, ya know... like a hooker." - When my friend said she was nervous about her first massage
"If the only ice cream you ever eat is strawberry, how do you know that you wouldn't prefer pistachio?" - Delivered to my kids on more than one occasion, usually after a puppy love breakup scenario.
"16 year old boys amaze me. They either become ultra mature and responsible, or they revert to being toddlers and start the whole process over again."
The most important relationship you will ever have is the one with yourself.
Patience is a virtue.
It's like pulling teeth out of a worm.
Some financial quotes...
"Derivatives are financial weapons of mass destruction." -Warren Buffett
"The first rule of investing is don't lose money; the second rule is don't forget Rule No. 1." - Warren Buffet
"The safe way to double your money is to fold it over once and put it in your pocket." - Frank Hubbard
I will never accept the idea that you must stop ideas, certain language, or certain political beliefs from being aired just because they may offend someone
Hmm
"The early worm catches the bird ."
"The birds of the same feather swims together."
"Do not judge the cover by its book." nyahahaha.
Just kidding aside my creative juices is off for a while i'll post something worthwhile in the days ahead.
Good day marine.
You may win in an argument or discussion but not his/her heart. Sometimes we play to lose to win some gains.
You cannot please everybody, but you can at least be pleasant to everyone else. When your in an all-out effort in doing your tasks to the best of your capabilities, always amiable at all times, and always fair and square with all your dealings, you can maximize the number of people that will appreciate you and your work.
A single enemy is capable of inflicting immense damage in you like a colony of termites feasting on a wooden home. The backstabbing you can absorb from a foe could yield unpredictable magnitude of harm. Try to avoid having even a single enemy.
All original nyahahaha, I extracted this from one of my hub i hope you'll like it though.
This was said by one of my professors-
"there is tough competition between engineers and doctors,but a doctor can bury his mistakes whereas an engineer cant"
A few by me are:
"...you'll have that".
"Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity"
"How could I tell you if I didn't know?"
God ..can ya put ya arm around my shoulder? and a hand over my mouth!
"I talk to myself because I'm the most interesting person I know."
"I don't eat anything that looks the same on my plate as it did when it was alive." (this was in response to someone wanting me to eat lobster)
"God please give me the power to be a patient man; but please Hurry Up!!"
Stand not upon the order of your leaving, but go at once.
Willy Waveadagger.
"If you can not manage a smile, try a handstand."
"be not who you think you ought to be but who you truely are, that person is by far the best." Both by me.

"Helping others is what fuels your own life"

"Never say to the God that i have a big problem, always say to the problem that i have a big God"
"A bee that has honey in her mouth has a sting in her tail"
"A woman modestly dressed is like a pearl in a shell"
Don’t pray in my school, and I won’t think in your church.
As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in public schools.

- Buckaroo Banzai

"You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 today and we don't know where the hell she is.
