If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you it's yours, But if it doesn't, it probably wasn't yours in the first place. I've always thought that such a sad saying, but I suppose it's true. Sue xx

I also like' Make sure you have taken the spoon out ' it is in Bryce Courtneys books Four Winds it refers to the murphy's law that if you don't take the spoon out of the sink murphy,s law says the water will hit it and spray all over the place meaning before you do any thing check that its right and before speaking making sure the brain is in gear I think its a good one for some who don't,Love Lara

Here's a few.. well quite alot.. The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple. Those are my principles, if you dont like them i have others. To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose. Woman was made after man, and she's been after him ever since. Everyone is good at something - even if it's being bad at everything The older you become, the longer your dressing gown gets. Give a woman an inch and the whole famil'ys on a diet. A gentleman is someone who knows how to play the bagpipes.. but doesnt. You dont scare me i have children. If at first you don't succeed - redefine success! If the eyes are the windows of the soul - why are your curtains always closed? |If ignorance is bliss - why aren't there more idiots? I feel i am diagonally parked in a parallel universe. I have one nerve left- and you're getting on it! You will always be my friend, you know too much. The road to success is always under construction. If they can put man on the moon, why cant they put them all there? Greeat each day with a smile... and get it over with. Man is for christmas - not life. I owe alot to my parents.. especially my mother and father. You can lead a hoticulture.. but you cant make her think. It was a mans world... then eve arrived. We both had words.. but i didnt get to use mine. Always forgive your enimies.. nothing annoys them so much. If it werent for bad luck... i wouldnt have any luck at all. Never play leapfrog with a Unicorn. The pen is mightier than the sword.. and considerably easier to write with. You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on. Reality is an illusion created by a lack of alcohol. The answer is in the plural ... and they bounce. Show me a sane man and i will cure him for you. :))
