Gossip is like a river... It can always be traced back to its source. A smile is a language even a baby understands. It costs nothing but it creates much. It happens in a flash but the memory of it may last forever. Keep on smiling!

Promises are like snowballs - easy to make but hard to keep. Go the extra mile. It's never crowded. I laugh, therefore I pee.

I read science fiction.
I get to the end and say, "Well, that's not going to happen." Did you ever notice that when you fall in love you sink into his arms, but after the wedding your arms are in his sink? The work will wait while you show the children the rainbow. But the rainbow won't wait while you finish your work.
We may not have it all together; but together we have it all.

Definition of an elephant: A mouse built to government specifications. Women are hard to figure out. They love lingerie and they love garage sales, but they don't seem to like getting garage-sale lingerie as a gift. April showers bring May mold.

Many people lose their tempers merely from seeing you keep yours.
Be yourself. No one can ever tell you you're doing it wrong.

A: Senator. It's amazing how many beautiful women walk into your life the week before you get married. Father answering phone: No, this is not your dreamboat, this is his supply ship. Women like silent men; they think we're listening. One good thing about having a woman for president--we wouldn't have to pay her as much.

Jimmy Demaret: "Golf and sex are about the only things you can enjoy without being good at."
Jack Lemmon: "If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball."
Lee Trevino: "If you're caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron."

Rep Power: 18727 | Re: Good Quotes Part Deux Buying on time used to mean you got to the store before it closed. The quickest way to make someone ignore you is to start a sentence with "You should ..." The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music. Knowledge is realizing that the street is one-way, wisdom is looking both directions anyway.

A dog has lots of friends because he wags his tail and not his tongue. Rodney Dangerfield once professed to feel sorry for short people. Why? "When it rains," he explained, "they're the last to know." "Sure the Pilgrams had a lot to be thankful, all there in-laws were back in Europe."

Alexander Hamilton started the U.S. Treasury with nothing - and that was the closest our country has ever been to being even. One of the most successful inventors of all time was the man who invented the hay-bailing machine. Needless to say, he made a bundle. Truth is the cry of all, but the game of the few.

"Fifty years ago, 100 white men chasing one black man across a field was called the Ku Klux Klan. Today it's called the PGA Tour."
16. John Updike: "Golf appeals to the idiot in us and the child. Just how childlike golf players become is proven by their frequent inability to count past five."
17. "Silk Stockings" TV Show: "The people who gave us golf and called it a game are the same people who gave us bag pipes and called it music."
18. Gerald Ford: "I would like to deny all allegations by Bob Hope that during my last game of golf, I hit an eagle, a birdie, an elk and a moose."
19. P.G. Wodehouse: "The least thing upsets him on the links. He missed short putts because of the uproar of butterflies in the adjoining meadows."
