One should not cast one's pearls before swine.

But should one cast artificial pearls before genuine swine, the results might be unpredictable.

In this wicked world we live in,
There is one thing life can teach,
If a girl is born a lemon,
She can never be a peach,
But this life has compensations,
Something that I always preach,
You can always SQUEEZE a lemon,
Ever try to squeeze a peach?

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, but it's kinda neat all the same.

It's lonely at the top, but you do get to look down on people.

Until you spread your wings, you'll never know how far you can walk.

The best leaders lead by example. When that's not an option brute force works pretty well too.

Until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore you'll never know the terror of being forever lost at sea.

The race for quality has no finish line, so technically it's more like a death march.

Luck can't last a lifetime unless you die young.

Never cast pearls after swine. And definitely never accept pearls that you find after the swine have passed.

It's best to keep pearls and swine as far away from each other as possible.

Soldiers may die
and leaders may hide
but God bless the Prez who decides

Bombers may bomb
in the name of Islam
but God bless the bombs of whock and awe
of shock and awe

Plans may go wrong
and hate may grow strong
but God bless mistakes that go on
that go on and on

but God bless the child who sees it all

Where there's a will there's a lawyer.
Empty vessels hold the most beer.
When one door closes, another closes.
You can't have your cake and keep that youthful figure.
The wages of sin is death, but the hours is good.
Those who can, do. Those who can't, take the credit.
God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb.... fooled you!

1. People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.

2. He that humbleth himself wishes to be exalted.

3. The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

4. There are no facts, only interpretations.

5. Morality is but the herd-instinct in the individual.

6. No one talks more passionately about his rights than he who in the depths of his soul doubts whether he has any.

7. Without music, life would be a mistake.

8. Anyone who has declared someone else to be an idiot, a bad apple, is annoyed when it turns out in the end that he isn't.

9. In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad.

10. The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.

11. A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.

12. We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the way in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.

13. No victor believes in chance.

14. Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.

15. Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.

16. It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.

17. The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.

18. The future influences the present just as much as the past.

19. The most common lie is that which one tells himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.

20. I counsel you, my friends: Distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful.
