Some of the best Quote

Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

If you think you are too small to be effective, you have never been in the dark with a mosquito!

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you!

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

The latest new dance craze is called, "The Politician." It's two steps forward, one step backward, and then a side step.

A kiss is just a pleasant reminder that two heads are better than one.

I've learned that I should have told my Mom and Dad that I love & appreciate them more often than I did.

I've learned one very interesting thing about money... it doesn't buy class.

It's a funny thing about life... if you refuse to accept anything but the best... you very often get it.

Solid advice: If you always tell the truth, you never have to remember anything!

Volunteers are not paid - not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless.

Time goes by so fast; people go in and out of your life. You must never miss the opportunity to tell these people how much they mean to you.

Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the romance and you find out you still care for that person.

Don't worry if you are a kleptomaniac... you can always take something for it.

Forgiveness is all about me giving up my right to hurt you for hurting me.

Tears are words the heart can't express.

It is easier to believe a lie that you have heard a thousand times, than the truth that you have only heard once.

The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book.

It will do no good to argue if you're in the wrong. If you're right, you don't need to.

Winners make goals... losers make excuses!

Hope you find one that fits, mine is the skydiving.

Take care and Kindest regards

Terry

Hi Nedd

Glad you liked it.

Why not share with quote of the month, I am sure we would like some of them. there are a lot of us out here who read and the pic of the day and the humour is what can make a day slightly better even though we do not reply or post sometimes as we feel to bad but we can still read.

Take care and kindest regards

Morning All (feel like Dixon there)

I am so glad you like them I am having a few days ok at the moment and have had these for years and they often give me a smile and some are sad but I always get something to think about when I look at them. Some days it is me being a warning to others, another that always makes me sad is the one about not telling my mum and dad how I felt more often and you can't change what has been.

Anyway I shall start to ramble on so just want to say thanks for letting me know you liked it.

Take care and Kindest regards

Terry

Hi Terry, These quotes are great. I agree no skydiving for me either :) there are a lot of very true ones in there. I can understand why Gins likes the volunteer one :) I really like the Love one, it is very true, better tell my oh that one. Susan

Hi all

Thank you for showing such appreciation, I think I shall have a look at my old files for some more amusing items, have some friends with a wicked sense of humour and I tend to keep everything, I have stuff going back to my first Windows machine and the night school stuff I did and from there on to my uni stuff, all a bit old and on hard drives I use for back-ups.

Take care and Kindest regards
