My favourite quote would have to be "We are men of action. Lies do not become us"

A quote from the movie, 'The Princess Bride'. Excellent quote. Here's another.

"Life is pain highness. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something."


This one was on a tee shirt I noticed as I was putting away my laundry.

YOU HAD ME
AT HELL NO

Good quote. I love the Princess Bride! I love the tee shirt too.

My buddy has a tee-shirt that says, "Don't worry... I'm a professional".

The funny part of this being his shirt, was this was the guy I hired to take about a half inch off of the bottom of a nearly 100 year old cast iron radiator. We had to have it removed, because we had just remodeled and the floor had a new layer on top of the old, so the radiator wouldn't have connected with the pipe coming through the floor anymore. He took it off, by getting a hold of a grinder, which had to have the guard removed to fit the large concrete cutting disc in, and he held the grinder to each of the individual feet of the radiator. He was blasting himself with metal dust and debris (not even wearing eye protection or a breathing mask), and he told me later that he felt like he had blood in his mouth, because of the taste of the metal he kept sneezing out of his face and choking on the rest of the night.

He got the job done. Although I wanted to take a video of it at the time and put it on utube as "the WRONG way" to do something. If he slipped an inch, his thumb would have been grinded off within tenths of a second. He had to press down the safety switch on the grinder to get it to go, which was seriously less than 2 inches from the grinding blade.

He has another teeshirt that says, "Ted Kennedy has killed more people with his car than I have with my gun."

Hahaha...

Excuse me madam, is this a piece of your brain?

I like famous quotes and sayings that contradict each other. Like "Haste makes waste" and "He who hesitates is lost" or "a stitch in time saves nine" and "let it all hang out"

[Matticus]

I use this one in my sig--I love it.

...Or put it on your T.S. List and give it to the chaplain.

When I say that she played
with me, for the first time in my
life I mean that the way a little
kid would mean it. She played
with me, like a kid might play
with another kid who had been
whacked on the head recently
and needed some diversion.
Well, if this was a sane culture,
I mean, and kids were allowed
to have sex with each other as
part of playing, like God
intended.

(from a character quoted as "Joe" in my Spider Robinson quotes book.)



It claims to be fully automatic,
but actually you have to push
this little button here.

--Gentleman John Killian



People who wear glasses are

For a predator, a wrong guess
can be preferable to a slow one.

If you can't have fun here, it's
your own damn fault.

Ren: Oh, my beloved ice-cream bar. How I love to lick your creamy center.
[eats bar of soap]
Ren: And your oh, so nutty chocolate covering. You're not like the others. You like the same things I do: Wax paper. Boiled football leather. Dog breath. We're not hitchhiking anymore. We're riding!

Ren:It's my Icereeammmm bar. I've had it, since I was a CHILDE!!!
