Words to Live By

Words to Live By

Accept that some days you're the pigeon,

and some days you're the statue.

Always keep your words soft and sweet,

just in case you have to eat them.

Always read stuff that will make you look

good if you die in the middle of it.

Drive carefully. It's not only cars that

can be recalled by their maker.

Eat a live toad in the morning and nothing

worse will happen to you for the rest of the day.

If you can't be kind, at least have the

decency to be vague.

If you lend someone $20, and never see

that person again, it was probably worth it.

It may be that your sole purpose in life

is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Never buy a car you can't push.

Never put both feet in your mouth at the

same time, because then you don't

have a leg to stand on.

Nobody cares if you can't dance well.

Just get up and dance.

The early worm gets eaten by the bird,

so sleep late.

When everything's coming your way,

you're in the wrong lane.

Birthdays are good for you; the more

you have, the longer you live.

Ever notice that the people who are late

are often much jollier than the people

who have to wait for them?

If ignorance is bliss, why aren't

more people happy?

You may be only one person in the world,

but you may also be the world to one person.

Some mistakes are too much fun

to only make once.

Don't cry because it's over;

smile because it happened.

We could learn a lot from crayons:

some are sharp, some are pretty, some

are dull, some have weird names, and

all are different colors but they all

have to learn to live in the same box.

A truly happy person is one who can

enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Happiness comes through doors you

didn't even know you left open.
