    This thread started so well.....

    Who is wise? He that learns from everyone. Who is powerful? He that governs his passions. Who is rich? He that is content. Who is that? Nobody.
    Benjamin Franklin

    The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
    A. P. Herbert

    No, all the ladies dressed as Wonder Woman can be usually found around Newcastle vomitting on the paths and side of the road after a few too many babyshams

    How about this one (paraprased cos I don't know the original)

    A wise man knows what he doesn't know.

    and

    To be strong, you must know your weaknesses

    I like both of those, however they really were worded originally.

    Ahh, that's the one I was trying to think of. Thought it was part of a prayer, but wasn't sure.

    Re: Excellent Quote and Great Sayings

    Tell the people you love that you love them as often as you can, 'cos one day either you or they won't be there to say or hear it.

    If you didn't quit then how would you have anything to regret later in life?

    You're gonna die eventually, just make sure you live a life that causes a massive bar bill at your funeral.

    You don't have to be religious to be a decent human being... and if you aren't religious don't worry, remember that no-one knows for sure.
