  • Say this one out loud to get the full impact: I rather have a "bottle in front of me" than a "frontal lobotomy"

  • while they wile away the hours
    in their ivory towers
    till they're covered up with flowers
    in the back
    of a black limousine

    oh the games people play
    every night and every day...

    (song from the 70s)

  • I looked up Resentment in a book of quotes years ago (don't ask why..) and read this

    There is a spirit of resistance implanted by the Diety in the [heart] of a man, in proportion to the size of wrongs he is destined to endure.



    so in other words, if you see someone who has a bad attitude, maybe he or she has "endured" much "wrong"  But people just make things worse by rejecting the person for his bad attitude... I am not saying i haven't done the same thing... regretfully
