Below are some of my favorite quotes: McDonald's on the new 6 Piece Chicken McNuggets "You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing" Michael Pritchard "All endings are also beginnings. We just don't know it at the time" “Whatever women must do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.” Charlotte Whitton "Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence." H. L. Mencken "5 out of 4 people have trouble with fractions" Source Unknown "Duct tape is like the force. It has a light side, a dark side, and it holds the universe together...." Carl Zwanzig "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend: and inside a dog, it's too dark to read." Groucho Marx "An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen today." Frodo: I can't do this, Sam. Sam: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam? Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for. "I don't know what weapons will be used in world war three, but in world war four people will use sticks and stones" "If I don't know your story, I don't know who you are as a leader" Noel M Tichey: The Leadership Engine "We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us."
