Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail. No one has more driving ambition than the boy who wants to buy a car. Be careful reading the fine print.

A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're in deep water. It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply be kind to others. The nicest thing about the future is that it always starts tomorrow. When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. No one ever says "It's only a game." when his team is winning. Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late. There are no new sins; the old ones just get more publicity. If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once. I've reached the age where the happy hour is a nap. Scratch a dog and you'll find a permanent job. Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs. There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 AM. It could be a right number. Money can't buy happiness -- But somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than in a Yugo.

(And RAP music will be the Golden Oldies!) Business conventions are important because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on. 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. You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person. We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all exist very nicely in the same box.
Every path has a few puddles. Always drink upstream from the herd. Meanness don't jes' happen overnight. The best sermons are lived, not preached. You cannot unsay a cruel, or unkind word.

Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong. A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor. If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'. Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in. Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.
