Favorite quote or saying?

[hodge]

I heard a new one today-
"Forward is not progressive if your headed toward disaster."
And the other is-
"I don't know where I'm going, but I'm making good time."

 

[G-Man]

"If you ask a question and get a NO, is better then never asking and never knowing"
"You learn everything in life through brute force and ignorance"
my IT moto "I am here to make your job easier and mine more fun"

 

[Kytim]

Not sure if it's my favorite or not but, the first that comes to mind is...

I must hurry and catch up with them, for I am their leader!


Maybe it's because I'm getting further behind all the time.

a simple one I use all the time:

Do it right and do it once.

 

[Lil Foot]

"I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them."

My most favorite everyday quote came from an uncle that passed away when I was very young.

"It doesn't cost a dime to be nice to someone!"

True words.

 

[WingNut]

Good One 'KyTim', I like that one, and very true

 

[WingNut]

How about :
'Why is there never enough time to do the job right in the first place,
but always enough time to do the job over again'

I told both of thease to my troops and am now using them on my kids.

Lets pretend I know something you don't. Used when I need them to do something right away and the question is WHY?

Please explaine to me what was just going threw your mind. Used when they have just done something they shouldn't have,

That reminded me of another one, which I am positive that I am guilty of-
"Often wrong, but never in doubt"

As a married man I tell my wife " I am always listening to you Honey, I just don't always hear you".

About optimists or pesimists. "The glass is neither half full or half empty, it is just twice as big as it needs to be"

The one I use most is " I am just trying to quench my intellectual thirst for knowledge"

The problem is not the problem; the problem is your attitude about the problem

"If it ain't broke, DON'T fix it"!!! Especially true in the auto industry.

 

[Profnohair]

When someone says they will be with me in minute, I always reply "Take your time, just hurry up"

It always gets a chuckle.

And as a guy from Poland that used to work me with in a countertop shop would say when changing to recently sharpened saw blades "it cuts like a butter through the knife".

Never could get him to remember the correct saying. I gave up and now use it myself.

If your going to be stupid you've got to be tough.

I'm always doing random goofy stuff and my gal tells me all the time "you aint right" to which I reply "but I aint wrong neither"

And my personal favorite which always gets a good laugh, If I happen to break wind and rip I fart I say "sorry I got some asshole behind me talking shit again"

Referencing your personal favorite, I usually say "Speak, O mighty toothless one".

An inch more I would have been a king, an inch less and I would have been a queen.

When someone wants to borrow something they wil say I will treat it like it's mine and I will always come back and tell them no to treat it like it is mine.
