General
I wanna hear everyone's favorite words of wisdom here.
Share one of your all-time fav quotes here, and then, if you have some words of wisdom of your own, please post one of your own quotes, too.
I keep a whole .doc file filled with the wisdom that I hear. So, let me hear your very fav quotes, and maybe it'll get added to the file, too!
Since it's my journal I get to post more than just two though.
Fav (less typical) quotes from others:
- You can joke about anything, just not with everyone.
- A thinking man is rarely a happy man.
- Don't be so helpless.
Fav personal quotes:
- If you don't think the unthinkable happens.
- The path to yourself is always a lonely road.
- The way you perceive yourself is only the smallest fraction of who you really are.

But if you tame me, then we shall need each other.
To me, you will be unique in all the world.
To you, I will be unique in all the world...
You will become responsible forever for what you have tamed...
~The Fox; The Little Prince

Seriously, I think my fav quote is "We can judge the heart of a man by the way he treats his animals." Don't know who said it, but I love it. :)
