Title: Favourite sayings, quotes or philosophies What's yours?
Post by: Barrabart on April 05, 2011, 08:12:34 AM
Everyone has a favourite, or maybe has heard others that are just dead set classics…….  Often they are used in a most spectacular fashion at precisely the right moment
I’ll kick it off with a few I like to use and a few I’ve heard, I’ll probably think of more over the next few days………

Describing those that aren’t so clever,

“Mate, you make two thick planks look like a computer”
“You’re about as sharp as a bowling ball”
“Mate you must have two d*cks, cos you couldn’t get that silly tuggin’ on one”

For when you’re feelin’ crook.

“I feel like I've been eaten by a dingo, and crapped over a cliff.”


On a more serious note

The race is long,
Sometimes you’re ahead,
Sometimes you’re behind,
But in the end you realise, the race is only with yourself.

“Life is a hard teacher: It gives the test first and the lesson after."

“Life should not be measured by the amount of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath”
“Good things happen over time, great things happen all at once”

There’s a few to kick it off, looking forward to your replies………

"You couldnt drive a stick up a dog's behind with a frying pan."

On a busy life-

One of my favourite quotes is by Theodore Roosevelt, however I first heard it in the movie 'The worlds fastest Indian'.

To me it is so fitting on many occasions in life. How many times have you been getting in and having ago at something or trying your hardest when there are always Eddie experts who seem to know better or people who want to criticise you for trying to do what your doing?


"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

On planning - "Measure twice, cut once"

On effort - "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, or knowledge, but rather in a lack of will"

On people - "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe"

"Sanity is over-rated"  ;D

One of my favourites is Churchill. Biting wit & sarcasm combined with inspiration.
Here are a few..

“You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.”
" We have always found the Irish a bit odd. They refuse to be English."
" The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter."
“ Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.”
" All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope"
" However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results."
" There is nothing more exhilarating than to be shot at without result"
" I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly. "
" I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.”
" I started on a camel, and I will finish on a camel"

And of course one that we should never forget....

"Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few. "

I don't know if these apply, but my boss is of Italian origin, and tends to mix his metaphors.
Here's some of them.

*The bank is a bit spectacle about the deal  (sceptical)
*The bank is between two hard baskets
*She had an autopsy on her neck
*It doesn’t take an iron lung to work that out
*He’s in a catch 69   (99   42    88 etc)
*I went through it like a fine tooth pick (fine tooth-comb)
*He was as happy as a pig in Larry
*He’s done really well, he’s feathered his own wing
*I don’t know if I’m looking up the wrong bark tree
*He had a gash on his head bleeding like a stuffed duck
*He’s really changed, he’s had a complete 99 degree turnaround
*Don’t have all your baskets in one bank
*It’s not the best block of land, it’s in the back of a Cadillac (cul-de-sac)
*It got my back up, like a furry dog on fire.
*I asked him, where do you expect me to get the money, go out and pluck a cow?
*He had a talk with the euthanasiast (Anaesthesiologist)
*I’ve got a sore leg, I’ve got a spleen on my foot  (spur)
*The brick wall had infections and we had to render it (defects)
* My mums got a bad back and hostis perostis (osteo perosis)
* He keeps changing his mind like Hackle and Hyde
*The expert talked to Steve, and he put the feathers up him.
* I’ll go over it with a good tooth brush (fine tooth-comb)
* He got off his high horse and got on his high heels.
* He calls a spade a spade, and an ace an ace.

I can't put crap on him, he speaks English better than I speak Italian, but when you're in a meeting with someone, it's bloody hard not to laugh.

I find it interesting that the majority of these sayings are aimed at making derogatory comments about someone's visual or mental attributes.  Is that because we can only feel good by making someone else feel bad?

My favourite philosophical saying:

"As I was sitting on a chair I knew the bottom wasn't there, nor legs, nor back, but I just sat ignoring little things like that"

Or in other words, don't let little dificulties get in the way of what you want to do.

If we are including movie quotes then...

We're dicks! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong Il is an a*shole. Pussies don't like dicks, because pussies get f*cked by dicks. But dicks also f*ck a*sholes: assholes that just want to sh*t on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with a*sholes their way. But the only thing that can f*ck an a*shole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is: they f*ck too much or f*ck when it isn't appropriate - and it takes a pussy to show them that. But sometimes, pussies can be so full of sh*t that they become a*sholes themselves... because pussies are an inch and half away from a*s holes. I don't know much about this crazy, crazy world, but I do know this: If you don't let us f*ck this a*shole, we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in sh*t!

Well there's this passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you." I been sayin' that **** for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never gave much thought what it meant. I just thought it was some cold-blooded **** to say to a mother****er before I popped a cap in his ass. I saw some **** this mornin' made me think twice. See now I'm thinkin', maybe it means you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9 Milimeter here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could mean you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. Now I'd like that. But that **** ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd.

Courtesy of Mr Walker in another thread-

It is also the holy grail of electrical cabling. It is mandatory that anyone claiming to be an electrical expert  mentions 6 B&S in a post. All cables in your vehicle must also be 6B&S, even things like interior light. All solar applications must use 6B&S.
 There are several international standards as well as a mandate from the united nations covering the wiring of camper trailers and the fitment of 12v accessories to a vehicle that mention specifically the compulsory use of 6 B&S cable
 I hope that helps

Not sure if they've been posted already but I do like:

Ned Kelly - Such Is Life

Martin Luther King Jnr - "And when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:
                Free at last! Free at last!
                Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"

On some idiot trying to do something: He couldn't find his way out of a wet paper bag with a set of instructions.

When going to the toilet for number 2s: I'm off to see Edgar Britt
or: I'm off to drop the kids off at the pool

About feeling good: Weather Fine/Track Good

About being hung-over: Half pace today
