I like quotations - got any favourites to share? How about...

"Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket - and do not merely pull it out and strike it, merely to show that you have one." -  Earl of Chesterfield.

(I think it is about big heads!) (And the 'merely's are his - not mine!)

"Sir, you're drunk!" "Yes, Madam, I am. But in the morning, I will be sober and you will still be ugly."

 

 

 

Winston Churchill.


"Life is Short - Forgive Quickly - Love Truly - Laugh Uncontrollably"

Life may not be all the party you'd hoped for, but while you're here you might as well dance ...

I couldnt resist another Churchill quote.....

Lady Astor to Winston Churchill: " Winston, if you were my husband, I should flavour your coffee with poison."
Churchill's reply: " Madam, if I were your husband, I should drink it."

I can't see our Gordon coming out with something like that Big Smile [:D]

It's interesting how some people have the knack isn't it ?
I like this one also from Philip Chesterfield -

I wish to God that you had as much pleasure in following my advice, as I have in giving it to you.
