The above is one of my favorites, too. It is pure truth.

Another one for me: "Hey, Boo."

Yes, I know that's not exactly a quote in the sense of the word intended here -- like a saying. But when Scout says those two little words in To Kill A Mockingbird, those words speak volumes. For anyone who knows and loves that book, they know all the things held there in simply, "Hey, Boo."

My favorite quote and why I like it.
 

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." -Albert Einstein

Here's why I like this quote: It fits with one of the biggest health issues we face today, the poor health status of Americans. The kind of thinking that got us into this state of poor health will not bring us back to good health. The thinking has got to change.

But how is that supposed to happen when most people have a vested interest in the status quo? Some are now mindlessly parroting food industry spokesmen who say, "we all have to die of something eventually". It's true but they say it in an attempt to nullify anything that anyone might say to improve health status standards.

It represents mindless thinking and won't solve the health issues we face as a society. If everyone is going to die, why do we spend billions upon billions of dollars every year on such things as cancer research?

If everyone is going to die, why build all the many Villages Clinics and search for the very best doctors?

Here's another true saying that comes from industry spokesmen: "People need to take personal responsibility." It has been repeated endlessly for decades. But the food industry never worries when anyone says this because they know it has absolutely no effect.

As the above quote says, "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." -Albert Einstein

I don't know---

Starting a quote with "People will forget what you say" doesn't sound like there is any hope you will be quoted. :)

I've always liked Dr. Phil's "How's that working out for you?"

Another one of my favorite Dr. Phil quotes -- "This ain't my first rodeo!!"

Now that's irony. I never thought about it that way. That's a fun angle on the quote. (When did fun become an adjective?) Anyway, love the comment. :clap2:

Still one of my favorite quotes though.

If you always do what you've always done
You'll always get what you all ready got

Probably already in this thread.

He who watches the Clock
Will always be one of the Hands

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Easy to live by.

There are only three kinds of people in this world, those that make things happen, those that watch things happen, and those who say "what happened?"

“The more you know, the more you know you don't know.”

― Aristotle

There was a great young Frenchman (Jean-Francois Paquereau) I worked with who gave me this profound bit of wisdom:

"You do not know what you do not know."

"No Good Deed Goes Unpunished!" --

I first heard it from a close friend who was a State Senator who still kept trying to help his constituents.

That almost sounds like a Yogi-ism! "It ain't over 'til it's over"! :-)

Another Yogi-ism:

"You have to go to other people's funerals or else, they won't come to yours".

Obliviously referring to the other people, attending the wake.
