I read some of these today and thought others may find a laugh or two in them…or even a word of truth.


I can please only one person per day. Today is not your day; tomorrow's not looking good either.
Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If he isn't there the first time you need him, chances are you won't be needing him again.
Money is a good servant, but a bad master.
Only dead fish go with the flow.
Simplicity of character is the result of profound thought.
You cannot tell which way the train went by looking at the track.
The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.
Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm
Mental Floss prevents Moral Decay.

When you're right, no one remembers. When you're wrong, no one forgets!
Swallow your pride occasionally. It's non-fattening.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.
Two wrongs don't make a right - three lefts do.
You can't be late until you show up.
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils.
When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity.
Everyone has photographic memory; some just don't have the film.

^ I really like that one. :)

Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
