Quips of Wisdom

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not using it in a fruit salad.

The secret of a good sermon is to have a good beginning and a good ending;
And to have the two as close together as possible.
…George Burns

Santa Claus has the right idea. Visit people only once a year
…Victor Borge

Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.
…Mark Twain

By all means, marry. If you get a good husband or wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one,
You'll become a philosopher.
…Socrates

I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury.
…Groucho Marx

My wife has a slight impediment in her speech.
Every now and then she stops to breathe.
…Jimmy Durante

I have never hated a man enough to give his diamonds back
…Zsa Zsa Gabor

Only Irish coffee provides in a single glass all four essential food groups:
Alcohol, caffeine, sugar and fat.
…Alex Levine

My luck is so bad that if I bought a cemetery, people would stop dying.
…Rodney Dangerfield

Money can't buy you happiness... But it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery.
…Spike Milligan

Until I was thirteen, I thought my name was SHUT UP.
…Joe Namath

I don't feel old. I don't feel anything until noon.
Then it's time for my nap.
…Bob Hope

We could certainly slow the aging process down if it had to work its way through Congress.
…Will Rogers

Don't worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older, it will avoid you.
…Winston Churchill

Maybe it's true that life begins at fifty, but everything else starts to wear out, Fall out, or spread out.
…Phyllis Diller

By the time a man is wise enough to watch his step, he's too old to go anywhere.
…Billy Crystal

And the cardiologist's diet: if it tastes good spit it out.

May your troubles be less, may your blessings be more,
and may nothing but happiness come through your door.

[Deadwood Dutch]

Outstanding post and it reminds me of some others.

Don't sweat the small stuff and it's all small stuff.

Just when you think that life is a b (Female dog.) - it has puppies.

May God grant you always...
A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.

Cate, many thanks for posting that link. It took me back many years. My Grandmother was Irish, and I've heard her say a lot of those things in one form or another.

Happy memories indeed!
