    When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

    That's one of my faves. I also quite like "I never hated a man enough to give him back his diamonds" ZsaZsa Gabor!

    “Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.” ― Marilyn Monroe

    Loved that...
    On a lighter note, I wonder thats why, Girls have to shop of so many shoes to find that "RIGHT" one. :laugh:
    :laugh: I still haven't found the "right" shoe yet, and I'll probably be looking for it forever!

    "Brown plus yellow equals ten" - my mother.

    When she learned numbers on flashcards the brown was 8 and the yellow was 2 and she equated the numbers on each card with the color for a long time.

    I love quotes.................inspiring, challenging, fun, whatever.

    And I'd have to say my favorites are those by Mark Twain :glasses:
    So, here are a few:

    Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.

    Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

    Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.

    Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen.

    An old friend who died a couple years ago always said, "People are no darned good. Except for you and me and I worry about you half the time."

    He would also say, "I don't want any buddies. I don't want any pals. As soon as I get one, they move and want me to help them."

    “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
    ― Marilyn Monroe

    “All major changes are like death. You can't see to the other side until you are there.”
    ― Michael Crichton, Jurassic Park

    “All your life, other people will try to take your accomplishments away from you. Don't you take it away from yourself.”
    ― Michael Crichton, The Lost World

    “If I had followed my better judgment always, my life would have been a very dull one.”
    ― Edgar Rice Burroughs

    "The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not "Eureka!" (I found it!) but 'That's funny..."
    — Isaac Asimov

    "A woman is not property, and husbands who think otherwise are living in a dreamworld."
    — Robert A. Heinlein (Time Enough for Love)

    "Too many people live the lives other people think they ought to, following orders they don't agree with, for causes they don't believe in. They live lives that don't matter, that touch no one and change nothing. For better or worse, you and I stared evil in the eye and didn't flinch. We raised our swords and went to war, and even if we didn't win we kicked some *kitten* along the way. We made a difference, and that's all any man can ask."
    — Simon R. Green (Deathstalker (Deathstalker, #1))

    These are just some cool quotes from some authors. :)
