We cannot address the problems we face today with the same mind set that caused them. Einstien (1954)
And "Sapera Aude" which is latin for " Have the courage to believe your own understanding" by a german scholar.
But my favorite of all time is:
I'm always in the shit, its just the depth that varies. Hilter (1948) |

I love quoting! My favs would be 'A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left' and 'If you can make a girl laugh you can make her do anything' - the wise words of Marilyn Monroe. |

Churchill has come up with many great ones but one will be very much of the moment tomorrow and at Parades all over the country Sunday.
On the lighter side, one of my favourite is "Madame, I may be d*unk but you're ugly and in the morning I'll be sober".  |

Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt and dance like no one is watching.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had
It is better to have love and lost then never loved at all |
