Don't know where I got these, but here they are:

"Don't run from a sniper, you will only die tired."

"Don't insult somebody until you have walked a mile in their shoes, because then you are a mile away and have their shoes."

I still love this one and that is why it is my sig.:

"You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone." (Al Capone)

"You know," he added very gravely, "it's one of the most serious things that can possibly happen to one in a battle -- to get one's head cut off."
--spoken by Tweedle Dum in Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll

"Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it."
--spoken by the Duchess in Alice`s Adventures In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

"I quite agree with you," said the Duchess; "and the moral of that is--'Be what you would seem to be'--or if you'd like it put more simply--'Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.'"
--ditto

Bestiae sumus, ut non bestiae simus (translation: beasts we are, lest beasts we become)

He who knows the ending of things when he is only beginning them, is either extremely wise or extremely foolish; either way, he is certainly an unhappy man, for he has put a knife in the heart of wonder.

Where this first one originated, I'd love to know.

The title is a good question, I guess.

I've heard that originated from the "Kung Fu" TV series.

About Your Quote!

You quoted General Patton. "Bastard" simply means that your parents weren't married to each other at the time of your birth. It's only meant as an insult when applied to you from people born while their parents where married to each other. If you are a bastard and recognize another bastard as such, that is not so much an insult as it is like a vampire saying hello to another one. You both have the same perceived problems. I could go on and on, but I won't.

Quotes Again?!

Really?! Are you people addicted to them or something? Does this mean the other quotes thread got deleted?

I thought this was about advice not quotes. Saying something helpful, rather than a race to post a certain quote before someone else does. So call me confused then. Hm.

Well, okay then. If you are an actor or an actress or a prop man, please make sure the prop gun does have blanks, rather than bullets, before aiming and firing it. Also, if it does have blanks, make sure they aren't overcharged, or the impact of the paper from the blank's firing may cause death too, especially at close range.

For the rest of us outside of show business, never point a gun at anyone you don't intend to harm.

If you are trying to shoot a home invader, make sure it isn't your pet or another loved one. If it is a loved one, make sure he, she, or it, isn't trying to snuff you, for causes not known to you.

Make sure the safety is off prior to pulling the trigger.

Put your bag of garbage in the trash can before the pick-up service arrives, not after.

When you take your dog for a walk, and use a leash. Make sure your dog is still with you at all times, so that you aren't caught pulling around a leash with no dog attached.

The bra is worn at the bosom, the panties around the waist and crotch area, not the other way around.

If your feet smell, and your nose runs, you might be upside down.

When in doubt, salute. Or punt.

A penny saved is a penny earned, but you might want to spend it before you die, if you don't have heirs to pass it along to. Unless you like the idea of the state getting it.

When surrounded by Borg, Cybermen, Daleks, Machines, Evil Dead, and other such baddies, you better hope that you're in either a convention, or that you're Q. But the odds on favorite for most likely, is that you're in a convention. Unless you're just dreaming. Dreaming is free, according to "Blondie", while conventions aren't.
