Reflections of great minds on government
Suppose you were an idiot. And
suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.
- Mark Twain
I
don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts. -
Will Rogers
Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean
politics won't take an interest in you. - Pericles (430 B.C.)
The only difference between a tax man and a taxidermist is that the
taxidermist leaves the skin.
- Mark Twain
How can anyone govern a nation that has two hundred and forty six
different kinds of cheese?
- Charles de Gaulle
It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except
all the others that have been tried. - Sir Winston Churchill (1874 -
1965)
It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong. - Voltaire
I have wondered at times what the Ten Commandments would have looked
like if Moses had run them through the US congress. - Ronald Reagan
Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under. - Henry
Louis Mencken
Good
Thoughts for the Day
1. Birds of a feather flock together and crap on your car.
2. There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time
to look for it. For
example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't
hurt.
3. When I'm feeling down, I like to whistle. It makes the neighbor's dog
run to the end of his chain and gag himself.
4. If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
5. Don't assume
malice for what stupidity can explain.
6. A penny saved is a government oversight.
7. The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at
the right time, but also to leave
unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting mo
me
nt.
8. The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then
your body and your fat are really good friends.
9. The easiest way to find so
me
thing lost around the house is to buy a replace
me
nt.
10. He who hesitates is probably right.
11. If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't
met everybody.
12. If you can smile when things go wrong, you have so
me
one in mind to blame
.
13. The sole purpose of a child's middle name
is so he can tell when
he's really in trouble.
14. Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words "The" and
"IRS" together it spells "THEIRS"?
15. Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are
"XL"
Sometimes
we just need to remember what the 12 Rules of Life really are...
1.
Never give yourself a haircut after three margaritas.
2.
You need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it
should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.
3.The
five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship are "I
apologize" and "you are right."
4.
Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
5.
Never pass up an opportunity to pee.
6.
If he/she says that you are too good for him/her - believe them.
7.
Learn to pick your battles: ask yourself, Will this matter one year from
now? How about one month? One week? One day?"
8.
When you make a mistake, make amends immediately. It's easier to eat crow
while it's still warm.
9.
If you woke up breathing, congratulations!
You have another chance!
10.
Living well really is the best revenge. Being miserable because of a bad
or former relationship just might mean that the other person was right
about you.
11.Work
is good, but it's not that important.
Money is nice, but you can't take it with you. Statistics show most
people don't live to spend all they saved; some die even before they
retire.
12.
And finally... Be really good
to your family and/or friends. You never know when you are going to need
them to empty your bedpan.
