Wow! I could come up with hundreds, but to distill it down to a few:
"The best things in life aren't things."--Art Buchwald "If you think can or you think you can't, you are right."--Henry Ford "No one teaches riding quite as well as a horse."--C.S. Lewis "Blessed is he who expects nothing for he shall never be disappointed."--Alexander Pope "Contradiction is not a sign of falsity, nor the lack of contradiction a sign of truth." --Blaise Pascal "'Tis with our judgments as our watches, none Go just alike, yet each believes his own." --Alexander Pope "All models are wrong, but some are useful" --George E.P. Box "Progress doesn't come from early risers - progress is made by lazy men looking for easier ways to do things." --Robert Heinlein "Friends don't let friends lift deeps" Jim Fischer "...no man's back is unbreakable and even beekeepers grow older. When full, a mere shallow super is heavy, weighing forty pounds or more. Deep supers, when filled, are ponderous beyond practical limit."--Richard Taylor "we are constantly sacrificing the joys of the present on the altar of the future"--C.S. Lewis "We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful."--C.S. Lewis "The Master does nothing, yet he leaves nothing undone. The ordinary man is always doing things, yet many more are left to be done." --Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

Mine for dealing with kids is "Say what you mean & mean what you say!" Another is that "it's hard to put up with the imperfections in others when you are so perfect yourself!" J

"All models are wrong, but some are useful" --George E.P. Box There for a minute I thought it said, "All models are young, and most are sexy." One of my favorites is, "Always put of until tomorrow what you don't want to do today." "A Job well done is a job done right." The chef's version of this (For Isaac) is, "A meal well cooked is burnt." My Dad always taught me to "Never start a fight but always finish one." My greatgrandfather used to say, "a swift kick in the groin is nature's equalizer." He was a hard fisted, beer drinking, knife fighting black rock miner from PA.
