Occasionally I hear words that ring so true it stuns me, yesterday I heard this
"When two people live together, they can only be as happy as the unhappiest of the two"
This is why I'm sooooo happy to be single 
What wise words ave struck a chord with you and made you realise something about your life and happiness? |

There's a few I like but this one really changed my perception on life a bit
'A man who _iews the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of life'
I used to perceive change as a bad thing. People always say 'you've changed' as if it is a bad thing. I've since realised its not and I'm starting (and have) outgrown people.
I'm grateful for the different _iew I have on life now but at same time am a little sad I wasted time with my previous perception |

"Poor handwriting is a sign of a clever person. The hand can't keep up with the mind apparently!!!! A consultant told me "
Or a wanker.
So experience has taught me.  |

A friend told me once when we were out to check how a man dances to gauge if he is good in bed!!! I don't think how he danced to the time warp was a good example though |

On a serious note though the most mind blowing advice I ever heard was...
"people who talk about others to you, talk about you to others"
Never trust a secret to someone who tells you people's secrets. |

To win in battle, know your enemies intentions
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look on them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.
Sun Tsu, The Art of War |

In a moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing to do, the next best is the wrong thing to do but the worst thing to do is nothing.

Always try to treat others as you would like to be treated yourself.
Apologise if you are in the wrong, but never if you believe you are in the right.
It’s better to feel a bit foolish at times rather than to be a fool all the time.
And my favourite from Homer J Simpson "You can't keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once, and move on" |

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. |

A very old friend of mine said this to me many many years ago and I've kept it and lived by it ever sinse."everybody has a best friend" what that means is if you have something you don't want anybody knowing don't even tell your best friend because no dawt they have a best friend to and in turn they will have a best friend and so on and so on. Very wise words indead |
