I am intruiged to see what people's favourite quotes are.
I like plenty in particular, but my fav one is:
'He who flings dirt at one, dirties himself the most'

I like the following though:
'If something can go wrong, it seriously can'
'If winning isnt everything, why keep the score [Vince Lambardi]

'A pencil you in, is a definate maybe.'

Okay, im writing too many, but anyone else got favourite ones?

I've two that I like.

Sorry to all who believe in ghosts, UFO's Yeti's etc but my first one is: Extraodinary claims need extraordinary proof.

The second was a note Churchill sent to his secretary when she coplained his letters contained poor sentence structure.
His note said "Up with this, I will not put"

If too many cooks spoil the broth, why do many hands make light work?

Wink Morning rosebud. I love my food too but have learned recently only to eat when I'm really hungry and not be obsessed with it as I was when I was younger (and a lot heavier!). I think walking the dog helps too, as I don't seem to need to diet these days and my weight is remaining stable apart from the odd pound or two! Are you still losing weight rosebud?

Hi Muggy, walking McCloud will keep your weight in check, wish I could walk more ( still have my problem that hinders my walking, the op is too dangerous so will have to put up with it). I lost 2 stone as planned and have been having little extra treats and my weight has been the same for 5 weeks so I'm pleased about that, will be able to keep it in check now, lovely sunny day here. Thumbs Up

"Or the one!". Thanks, chobo. Thumbs Up

Try this slightly obscure one for size:

"The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They don't alter their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views"

Another of my fave quotes / put downs is:

"You know, you're a classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of the brain!"

don't knock the amateur, after all he buit the ark, Professionals buit the Titanic

many are called
but few get up

Teddy bears show us what love really means
being there when needed

Nothing is worthless if you enjoy doing it

The simplest questions are oftern the hardest to answer

if the worlds a stage?

ive missed my cue

Many things can be preserved in alcohol

Dignity is not one of them
