The thing that impresses me about America is
the way parents obey their children. :hail:
Edward VIII

Isn't it better that someone obeys - rather than no one! :rolleyes:

America is a vast conspiracy to make you happy. :lie:

One should choose only those books of intelligence to spend
the life time in leisure hours, similar to a few who have well-selected
friends in life.

Balasubramanian



An advice I read long ago!

"Always choose a book you will not be ashamed to be seen with
should you drop dead suddenly!"

Cool advice but very very discouraging for the pop books and magazines!!!
 
Anger only ignites the mind. If a person remains patient in
that moment of anger, he/she can avoid kicking a stone or
any other object, so as to avoid hurting their own foot.

Slamming the door, punching on the walls, kicking big stones
are all exhibitions of helpless and futile anger.
They damage the property and the physique of
the angry person and not the one he is angry with!

Woody Allen.

Yes sir! We call it now as sleeping with the enemy! :rolleyes:

Cats look down on us.

Thank God they have sworn
not to complain about man! :)
 
What is a horse to the Arab,
or the dog to the Greenlander,
the pig is to the Irishmen. :first:
J. G. Kohl

Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. :wof:
Inside of a dog it is too dark to read! :rolleyes:
Groucho Marx
 
When a man wants to murder a tiger, he calls it sport.
When the tiger wants to murder him, he calls it ferocity.
G.B.Shaw

If only the tiger could talk...it would tun the table against man!

It is better to be beautiful than to be good.
but... it is better to be good than to be ugly.
Oscar Wilde.

A very practical advice.
Beauty > goodness > ugliness!!!
Now what of a person beautiful and good???
What of a person both ugly and bad???!
 
What is the similarity between

health and weather???

Both vary from day to day. :decision:

Be happy if they are good. :)

What does the hair splitter do

when he runs short of hairs??? :sad:

Well! he will try to dissect those

who WERE the owners of those hairs.
:bolt:
 
Those in quarrel interpose
Must often wipe a bloody nose!
John Gay

Small wonder that people act blind and deaf to the
violence that they happen to see in everyday life.


Several excuses are always less convincing than one.
Aldous Huxley

People want the whole truth in one piece
and not in many tiny installments!!!
 
The young sahib shot divinely but
God was very merciful to the birds!

Anonymous

I hope God was equally merciful to those
who had accompanied the young sahib. :grouphug:

They are no members of the common throng. :flock:
They are noblemen who have gone wrong!

Isn't stinking money more often than not
associated with equally stinking habits??? :rolleyes:
 
We joined the NAVY TO SEE THE WORLD.
And what did we see?
We saw the sea!
Irving Berlin.

(That too when your head was NOT swimming, I guess) :sick:

Don't talk to me about naval tradition.
It is nothing but rum, sodomy and lash.
Winston Churchill

(Modified form of Wine, Women and venison???) :rolleyes:
