And I quote.....

“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”
(Henry David Thoreau, author)

Unless you have recurring dreams about coming to work naked. Then try not to live the life you have imagined. But if you are going to go in the direction of your dreams, by all means, do it confidently!


A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.
And a slut is one who doesn't care who you are and loves just the same as everyone else
A true friend is someone who knows you and loves you more because of it

A man is as good as he has to be, and a woman as bad as she dares.
Is this quote about driving?

A man is not paid for having a head and hands, but for using them.
I've done this one already :) but I think I might be able to come up with a couple more....
Unless you're a porn star, in which case you're paid for using... oh wait, that's the same....
A man playing soccer IS paid for having a head and hands, but penalized for using them, the hands anyways

A retentive memory may be a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness.
an ANAL retentive memory is just annoying
A retentive memory may be a good thing, but... um, what was I talking about?

An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy to be called an idea at all.
an idea that is not dangerous is called a GOOD idea. A dangerous idea is called stupid. Unless it succeeds, in which case it's called a stroke of genius.

Die, verb: to stop sinning suddenly.
Die, verb: to stop spinning suddenly (if you are falling anyways)
Die verb: German for "the verb"

Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped.
on the contrary, stupidity is very handicapped! In the short bus, wear a helmet everywhere kind of way that is.
This kind of adds a new spin to the whole "shoot for the stars" thing doesn't it? Hey, you're a raging moron, but don't give up, you can always get stupider!

He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.
Especially if you are a mute. Or if you're silent because you speak a foreign language and don't understand "his" words.

If you can't answer a man's arguments, all is not lost; you can still call him vile names.
And be a politician. Or a 2 term President. Wait, this also explains the previous quote....

It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide on what to do.
actually, it requires NO strength to decide what to do. I can decide not to lift a car, and that takes no strength. But to actually lift a car takes a LOT of strength!!

Life is just one damned thing after another.
whereas a beaver's life is damming one thing after another

The greatest mistake you can make in life is continually fearing that you'll make one.
kind of a sick self-fulfilling prophesy there isn't it?
actually though, the greatest mistake you can make in life is dying.

The man who has no problems is out of the game.
only if the game is math, in which case you're only out cause you won. at math. at life you're kind of a loser.

We are not punished for our sins, but by them.
no, we are motivated and tempted (and often entertained) by our sins (and those of others). we are punished by the judicial system which decided to base many of it's laws on what is and is not a sin in the bible, thus punishing us FOR our sins. Unless of course the sin is suicide or adultery and the jealous husband is armed. Then we are punished both for and by our sins.
