The best birthdays of all are those that havent arrived yet.
Just remember, once youre over the hill you begin to pick up speed.
People ask me what Id most appreciate getting for my eighty -seventh birthday. I tell them, a paternity suit.
A friend never defends a husband who gets his wife an electric skillet for her birthday.
The return of my birthday, if I remember it, fills me with thoughts which it seems to be the general care of humanity to escape.
If Id known I was going to live this long, Id have taken better care of myself.
You are only young once, but you can be immature for a lifetime.
If you watch a game, its fun. If you play it, its recreation. If you work at it, its golf.
The reason the pro tells you to keep your head down is so you cant see him laughing.
Im not saying my golf game went bad, but if I grew tomatoes, theyd come up sliced.
Give me the fresh air, a beautiful partner, and a nice round of golf and you can keep the fresh air and the round of golf.
Golf is a game in which you yell fore, shoot six, and write down five.
I have a tip that can take 5 strokes off anyones golf game. Its called an eraser.
The only time my prayers are never answered is on the golf course.
You can make a lot of money in this game. Just ask my ex-wives. Both of them are so rich that neither of their husbands work.
I play golf with friends sometimes, but there are never friendly games.
Dont play too much golf. Two rounds a day are plenty.
Golf is played by twenty million mature American men whose wives think they are out having fun.

Ive had a good day when I dont fall out of the cart.
I realized that the secret to golf isnt how low you shoot when its going good, its how to make your bad rounds better.
The difference in golf and government is that in golf you cant improve your lie.
The first time I played the Masters, I was so nervous I drank a bottle of rum before I teed off. I shot the happiest 83 of my life.
The people who gave us golf and called it a game are the same people who gave us bag pipes and called it music.
I dont need to know where the green is. Where is the golf course ?
If you think its hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.
What you get by achieving your goal is not as important as what you become by achieving your goal.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you will see farther.
An archer cannot hit the bullseye if he doesnt know where the target is.
Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, youll land amongst the stars.
An goal in life is the only fortune worth the finding; and it is not to be found in foreign lands, but in the heart itself.
I know what I want to accomplish and I know how to get there. The ultimate goal is to be the best. Whether thats the best ev er, who knows ? I hope so.
Your goals are the road maps that guide you and show you what is possible for your life.
Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal: my strength lies solely in my tenacity.
Think little goals and expect little achievements. Think big goals and win big success.
God gives us dreams a size too big so that we can grow in them.
My goal is simple. It is complete understanding of the universe, why it as it is and why it exists as all.
To solve a problem or to reach a goal, youdont need to know all the answers in advance. But you must have a clear idea of the problem or the goal you want to reach.
There are two things to aim at in life; first to get what you want, and after that to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind has achieved the second.
To think too long about doing a thing often becomes its undoing.
When I am anxious it is because I am living in the future. When I am depressed it is because I am living in the past.
Goals should always be made to a point that will make us reach and strain.
Fear melts when you take action towards a goal you really want.
If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.
Everyone ought to worship God according to his own inclinations, and not to be constrained by force.
If theres one thing I know its God does love a good joke.
Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.
Sure God created man before woman, but then again you always make a rough draft before creating the final masterpiece.
God makes three requests of his children : Do the best you can, where you are, with what you have, now.
I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter.
God thinks within geniuses, dreams within poets, and sleeps within the rest of us.
God made everything out of nothing, but the nothingness shows through.
As to the gods, I have no means of knowing either that they exist or do not exist.
If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name in a Swiss bank.
When a man takes one step toward God, God takes more steps toward that man than there are sands in the worlds of time.
One reason God created time was so that there would be a place to bury the failures of the past.
If God invented marathons to keep people from doing anything more stupid, the triathlon must have taken Him completely by surprise.
How lucky I am to have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye to.
Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?
You know that you are in love when the hardest thing to do is say good-bye!!
A good-bye is never painful unless youre never going to say hello again.
Life wouldnt be the same without you and all the memories you have givin me.
Sometimes you have to let go of the one you love to find out if there is really something there.
Its all said and done, its real, and its been fun.
Dont be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before we can meet again and meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends.
Its something unpredictable, but in the end is right, I hope you had the time of your life.
The loss of a friend is like that of a limb. Time may heal the anguish of the wound, but the loss cannot be repaired.
Saying goodbye isnt the hard part, its what we leave behind thats tough.
Until this moment, I never understood how hard it was to lose something you never had.
You never leave someone behind, you take a part of them with you and leave a part of yourself behind.
Why are the words goodbye, Im sorry and I love you, so easily pronounced, but so hard to say?
A part of you has grown in me, together forever we shall be, never apart, maybe in distance, but not in the heart.
The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be the beginning.
The real genius for love lies not in getting into, but getting out of love.
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
There is a time for departure even when there is no certain place to go.
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
I dont want to wake up and realize what I was dreaming was right in front of my shut eyes. I dont want to stop saying hello s for fear of saying goodbyes.
When I see your smile, and I know its not for me, thats when Ill miss you.
The man who graduates today and stops learning tomorrow is uneducated the day after.
Education is what remains when one has forgotten everything he learned in school.
The important thing is the educational experience itself how to survive it.
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future.
You know that point at your graduation ceremony where everyone throws their caps ? Isnt it gr eat that we all celebrate how smart we are by throwing sharp pointy objects in the air.
You can lead a boy to college, but you cant make him think.
Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: and a people who mean to be their own governours, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.
A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that individuality is the key to su ccess.
He who learns but does not think is lost. He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.
Education is simply the soul of society as it passes from one generation to the next.
Theres nothin in life thats worth doin, if it caint be done from a horse
There is just as much horse sense as ever, but the horses have most of it.
The child who ran weeping to you with a cut finger is now brought home, smiling gamely, with a broken collar bone and incredible contusions-it wasnt Jezebels fault, Dad.
I can make a General in five minutes but a good horse is hard to replace.
Show me your horse, and I will tell you who you are.
It is not enough for a man to know how to ride; he must know how to fall.
My dear, I dont care what they do, so long as they dont do it in the streets and frighten the horses.
A stubborn horse walks behind you, an impatient horse walks in front of you, but a noble companion walks beside you.
All horses deserve, at least once in their lives, to be loved by a little girl.
There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.
In buying a horse or taking a wife, shut your eyes tight and commend yourself to God.
There are only two emotions that belong in the saddle; one is a sense of humor and the other is patience.
If your horse says no, you either asked the wrong question or asked the question wrong.
The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.
No ride is ever the last one. No horse is ever the last one you will have. Somehow there will always be other horses, other places to ride them.
Ask me to show you poetry in motion, and I will show you a horse.
And God took a handful of southerly wind, blew His breath over it and created the horse.
Horses change lives. They give our young people confidence and self esteem. They provide peace and tranquility to troubled souls- they give us hope!
Steeds, steeds, what steeds! Has the whirlwind a home in your manes?
If I had a horse, Id ride off in the sunset, where dreams, and shadows lie. To a life, where pain and sorrow dont exist, and to where hopes, and dreams become reality.
A horse is the projection of peoples dreams about themselves -strong, powerful, beautiful-and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.
Sell the cow, buy the sheep, but never be without the horse.
Through the days of love and celebration and joy, and through the dark days of mourning-the faithful horse has been with us always.
Never regret. If its good, its wonderful. If its bad, its experience.
If you only do what you know you can do you never do very much.
- Tom Krause
- Abraham Lincoln Find something you love to do and youll never have to work a day in your life.
- Jimmy Johnson
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
There are three words I like to repeat to myself: glass half full. Just to remind myself to be grateful for everything I have.
I have enjoyed life a lot more by saying yes than by saying no.
- Ralph Marston Dont waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window or break down a door.
- Confucius
You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
- Christopher Columbus
- Ann Landers
If you spend your whole life waiting for the storm, youll never enjoy the sunshine.
- Morris West Whether you think you can or think you cant, youre right.
- Henry Ford
I never need to see the sun again, there enough light in your eyes to light up all the world.
People can live one hundred years without really living a minute.
Live your life in the manner that you would like your kids to live theirs.
- Michael Levine
There is dignity in suffering; nobility in pain; but failure is a salted wound, that burns and burns again!
- Woody Allen

- Stephen Kaggwa
- Diego Marchi
Anybody who told you to be yourself simply couldnt have given you worse advice
Dont let you mind wander its far too small to be let out on its own.
Are you always this stupid or are you making a special effort today?
Sure, Ive seen people like you before but I had to pay an admission.
Sure, Id love to help you outnow, which way did you come in?
Id love to ask how old you are, but unfortunately I know you cant count that high.
I have met a lot of hard boiled eggs in my time, but youre twenty minutes.

For the love of God, do you at least remember what you were doing the day they were passing out common sense?
I wont insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.
There are two insults no human being will endure: that he has no sense of humor, and that he has never known trouble.
They just ran out of brains by the time you got there, so they gave you a nice wood carving instead.
Well, they do say opposites attractso I sincerely hope you meet somebody who is attractive, honest, intelligent, and culture d.
To force a man to pay for the violation of his own liberty is indeed an addition of insult to injury.
A lawyer is a learned gentleman who rescues your estate from your enemies and keeps it himself.
No brilliance is required in law, just some common sense and relatively cleaner fingernails.
A Lawyer can do anything to win a case, sometimes he will even tell the truth.
Hundred men with thier guns can steal as much as a lawyer with his briefcase can.
Laws should be like clothes. They should be made to fit the people they serve.
Lawyers are always more ready to get a man into troubles than out of them.
If the laws could speak for themselves, they would complain of the lawyers in the first place.
A countryman between two lawyers is just like a fish between two cats.
If there wasnt a penalty for laughing in court, the jury would never be able to hear the evidence.
It is always the best policy to tell the truth, unless, of course, you are an exceptionally good liar.
- Eliot Wiggington
The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
- Ben Stein Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while youre in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.
And in the end, its not the years in your life that count. Its the life in your years.
Life is what we make it, always has been, always will be.

Our own life is the instrument with which we experiment with the truth.
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

Sometimes, when one person is missing, the whole world seems depopulated.
Each time I miss you, a star falls down from the sky. So, if you looked up at the sky and found it dark with no stars, it is all your
Life is so short, so fast the lone hours fly, We ought to be together, you and I.
When I see your smile, and I know its not for me, thats when Ill miss you.
A hug for you means I need you. A kiss for you means I love you. A call for you means Im missing you.
Its true we dont know what weve got until its gone, but we dont know what weve been missing until it arrives.
Love is missing someone whenever youre apart, but somehow feeling warm inside because youre close in heart.
I miss your love I miss your touch, But Im feeling you everyday.
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
Love reckons hours for months, and days for years; and every little absence is an age.
For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.
Cause I love you and I miss you, hearing your voice is the closest thing to touching you.
I dropped a tear in the ocean. The day you find it is the day I will stop missing you.
Missing you could turn from pain to pleasure, if I knew you were missing me too.
The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected.
You never know what you have until you lose it, and once you lose it, you can never get it back.
You may be out of my sight but never out of my mind I Miss You!
Although weve come to the end of the road, still I cant let you go, its unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you .
When I miss you, I dont have to go far I just have to look inside my heart because thats where Ill find you.
I think we dream so we dont have to be apart so long. If were in each others dreams, we can play together all night.
I heard someone whisper your name, but when I turned around to see who it was, I was alone. Then I realized that it was my
heart telling me that I miss you. When I miss you, sometimes I listen to music or look at pictures of you, not to remind me of you but to make me feel as if I m with
you. It makes me forget the distance and capture you. Nothing hurts more then waiting since I dont even know what Im waiting for anymore.
To me you are my rose; every day when I see a beatiful rose I think of you, and miss you, and hope to hold you in my arms.
Can miles truly separate you from friends. If you want to be with someone you love, arent you already there?
Why is it that when you miss someone so much that your heart is ready to disintegrate, you hear the saddest song on the radio?
The distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.
Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it.
I like men who have a future and women who have a past.
We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.
One must always maintain ones connection to the past and yet ceaseles sly pull away from it.
You cant change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying about the future.
Right actions in the future are the best apologies for bad actions in the past.
If we open a quarrel between the past and the present, we shall find that we have lost the future.
Events in the past may be roughly divided into those which probably never happened and those which do not matter.
The past is our definition. We may strive, with good reason, to escape it, or to escape what is bad in it, but we will escape it only by adding something better to it.
I dont think of the past. The only thing that matters is the everlasting present.
There is a way to look at the past. Dont hide from it. It will not catch youif you dont repeat it.
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.
No hand can make the clock strike for me the hours that are passed.
To what a degree the same past can leave different marks-and especially admit of different interpretations.
The farther behind I leave the past, the closer I am to forging my own character.
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.
The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart, the less capable you are of loving in the present
Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.
Its in vain, Trot, to recall the past, unless it works some influence upon the present.
Ones past is what one is. It is the only way by which people should be judged.
The true perfection of man lies not in what man has, but in what man is.
Imperfection clings to a person, and if they wait till they are brushed off entirely, they would spin for ever on their axis, advancing nowhere.
All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible.
It is only imperfection that complains of what is imperfect. The more perfect we are the more gentle and quiet we become towards the defects of others.
True love does not come by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem-in my opinion-to characterize our age.
If a man should happen to reach perfection in this world, he would have to die immediately to enjoy himself.
The important work of moving the world forward does not wait to be done by perfect men.
The only nice thing about being imperfect is the joy it brings to others.
A designer knows he has achieved perfection, not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
Fix your eyes on perfection and you make almost everything speed towards it.
Assert your right to make a few mistakes. If people cant accept your imperfections, thats their fault.
The principal mark of a genius is not perfection but originality, the opening of new frontiers.
No good work whatever can be perfect, and the demand for perfection is always a sign of a misunderstanding of the ends of art.
A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault.
Perfect is determined in shortened measures of time, not over long periods of time or lifetimes. It would be unnatural.
The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.
This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfection.
The more perfect a thing is, the more susceptible to good and bad treatment it is.
I dont confuse greatness with perfection. To be great anyhow isthe higher achievement.
Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything.
Heathens dont amount to shucks alongside of pirates, to work a camp-meeting with. Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
It was a great experience for a kid, because it was a bunch of kids playing on pirate ships and water slides, so looking back on it, it was the fondest experience of my childhood.

My access to music when I was growing up was through pirate radio, you know, trans istor radio under the pillow, listening to one more and then just one more until your favourite track comes
on.
Merchant and pirate were for a long period one and the same person. Even today mercantile morality is really nothing but a refinement of piratical morality.
Ive been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, A poet, a pawn and a king; Ive been up and down and over and out, And I know one thi ng; Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up and
It is when pirates count their booty that they become mere thieves.
You can keep doing that forever, the dog is never going to move. Pirates of the Caribbean
The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man cant do. For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man or you cant. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so youll have to square with that some day. Pirates of the Caribbean
Even pirates, before they attack another ship, hoist a black flag.
The white mans happiness cannot be purchased by the black mans misery.
You dont fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity.
Racism is when you have laws set up, systematically put in a way to keep people from advancing, to stop the advancement of a people.
The African race is a rubber ball. The harder you dash it to the ground, the higher it will rise.
To like an individual because hes black is just as insulting as to dislike him because he isnt white.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
Racism is mans gravest threat to man the maximum of hatred for a minimum of reason.
Racism has been an integral component of American culture since its founding upon the genocide of Native Americans, and the forced slavery of Africans and Afro-Americans.
If God doesnt like the way I live, let him tell me, not you.
There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.
Among politicians the esteem of religion is profitable; the principles of it are troublesome.
Most peoples religion is what they want to believe, not what they do believe.
True religion is real living; living with all ones soul, with all ones goodness and righteousness.

The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.

A fanatic is someone who cannot change his mind and will not change the subject.
The more I study religions the more I am convinced that man never worshipped anything but himself.
Men will wrangle for religion, write for it, fight for it, die for it, anything but live for it.

They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.
Retirement: Thats when you return from work one day and say, Hi, Honey, Im home forever.
The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off.

Retirement: Its nice to get out of the rat race, but you have to learn to get along with less cheese.
He who laughs last at the bosss jokes probably isnt far from retirement .
Age is only a number, a cipher for the records. A man cant retire his experience. He must use it.
Retirement is like a long vacation in Las Vegas. The goal is to enjoy it the fullest, but not so fully that you run out of money.
When I retire Im going to spend my evenings by the fireplace going through those boxes. There are things in there that ought to be burned.
There are some who start their retirement long before they stop working
The question isnt at what age I want to retire, its at what income.
When a man retires and time is no longer a matter of urgent importance, his colleagues generally present him with a watch.
When you see some people work you wonder what theyll do in retirement.
Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad.
For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, It might have been.
Theres nothing more depressing than having it all and still feeling sad.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
I had rather have a fool make me merry, than experience make me sad.
The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.
We enjoy warmth because we have been cold. We appreciate light because we have been in darkness. By the same token, we can experience joy because we have known sadness.
- Jean de La Fontaine I didnt want to admit it. It was easier to lie. Hide the hurt and empti ness to smile instead of cry.
A sad spectacle. If they be inhabited, what a scope for misery and folly. If they be not inhabited, what a waste of space.
The walls we build around us to keep out the sadness also keep out the joy.
We ask God to forgive us for our evil thoughts and evil temper, but rarely, if ever ask Him to forgive us for our sadness.
You can choose to be happy or sad and whichever you choose that is what you get. No one is really responsible to make someone else happy, no matter what most people have been taught
I feel so miserable without you, its almost like having you here.
I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.
Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.
