    Default Favorite Sayings

    Greg's "New Favorite Quote" on the Warm Water Forum motivated me to finally start this thread.

    My wife works as a hospice nurse and sees a lot of older and dying people regularly. She likes to encourage me to "Do it WHILE you can."

    I obviously have several favorite sayings - "The fish are always right" and "Luck is a residue of skill" are two of them.

    To respond to my wife's line, I usually remark "Do it SO you can."

    You all must have some favorite sayings. How about sharing them ??
    The fish are always right.

    the right thing at the right time,
    but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing
    at the tempting moment." End Quote.

    Then out spake brave Horatius,
    The Captain of the Gate:
    "To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh soon or late.
    And how can man die better
    Than facing fearful odds,
    For the ashes of his fathers,
    And the temples of his gods.
