My grandmother would say, "That woman was so mean she could go bear hunting with a switch."

My favorite saying, "Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without."

I had a high school teacher that would say, "Nothing is relevant to an ignorant person."

It's better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.

Don't throw rocks if you live in a glass house
Well if that ain't the kettle calling the pot black.

Do you want me to spank you now or later...........both my parents would say this
In GOD we trust
You reap what you sew.
Those were the good old days.............

If you keep making that face it will freeze that way!
Who do you think is the boss here?

(And when I tried that on my three year old he looked up at me and said "Daddy". I left the room!)

When the wind is from the South, it blows the bait in the fishes mouth
When the wind is from the North, no fisherman should go forth
When the wind is from the East, it's not fit for man nor beast
When the wind is from the West, it's at it's very best.

My grandparents would say this in the mornings.

I had a boss that would say:

Watch your pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves. How true!
