Bits and Pieces Of Wisdom...........
Thursday, March 3, 2005 by Old_Crab | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
O.K. .......Got you alls attention. Now....just for hoots ...what do you think of starting a thread with little bits of wisdom? From authors, scientists, teachers, revered ones (holy seers and such) and of course ....er ummm hmmph...politicians.
Examples
"Logic is like the sword - those who appeal to it, shall perish by it."
- Samuel Butler
"It is always the secure who are humble."
-G.K. Chesterton
"We can forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light."
- Plato
"When you are arguing with a fool, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."
- Anonymous
I do hope everyone has some wisdom to share...........as always............Grand Raspberries to all and to all a good night or whatever.

Hmmmmmmmm. Sleeping Dragon was right a thread like this does exist somewhere else...however...

It's better to let people think you're a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
