[A SHORT, POINTED SENTENCE THAT EXPRESSES A WISE OR CLEVER OBSERVATION
OR A GENERAL TRUTH ]
1. The nicest thing about the future is . . . that it always starts
tomorrow.
2. Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him
wag his tail.
3. If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably don't
have any sense at all.
4. Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs.
5. A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're
in deep water.
6. How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of
the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?
7. Business conventions are important. . ..because they
demonstrate how many people a company can operate without.
8. Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than
everyone else looks?
9. Scratch a cat . . . and you will have a permanent job.
10. No one has more driving ambition than the teenage
boy who wants to buy a car.
11. There are no new sins; the old ones just get more
publicity.
12. There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong
number at 4 a..m. - like, it could be the right number.
13. No one ever says "It's only a game" when their team
is winning.
14.. I've reached the age where 'happy hour' is a nap.
15. Be careful about reading the fine print. . . . there's no
way you're going to like it.
16. The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody
has the same size bucket.
17. Do you realize that, in about 40 years, we'll have
thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?
(And rap music will be the Golden Oldies!)
18. Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's
more comfortable to cry in a Cadillac than in a Yugo.
19. After 60, if you don't wake up aching in every joint,
you're probably dead.
20. Always be yourself because the people that matter
don't mind . . . . and the ones that mind don't matter.
21. Life isn't tied with a bow . . . ... . . . but it's still a gift.
