Quotable Quotes II

1. Would you rather be everything to everyone, or something to someone? (Javan)

I'd rather be the latter. It's impossible for me to consider that any human could possible achieve the former for any length of time.

2. Does a fall into a ditch make you wiser? (Chinese proverb)

Yes, to a greater or lesser extent. If you keep falling into the same ditch, then you didn't learn very much, did you? Or maybe you learned that falling into ditches is fun. If that's the case, please stay far away from me.

3. Which is better to give your son: a skill or one thousand pieces of gold? (Chinese proverb)

A skill, of course. And may I make a strong recommendation for giving your daughters skills as well...?

4. Do you agree that winning isn't everything... but it's the ONLY thing? (Vince Lombardi)

Much as I like the Packers, and Lombardi, no. 'Course, it depends on how you define "winning" too. ;-)

5. In order to be a realist, do you have to believe in miracles? (Henry Christopher Bailey)

I think so. I've never heard this exact quote, but I have been living it out since I was born. {Hi, Ellen}
