Truth is one: wise men (as well as fools) call it by different names.
Disagreement is relatively rare in life, while miscommunication is the norm.
The flowers of happiness in the future are sown from the seeds of happiness today.
You rip what you sew.
He who encounters an angel, a sasquatch or a good woman should get it in writing, take a picture, and get married.
A decent man will often like a woman of doubtful moral character, until he learns that love is not free.
Nothing destroys the feeling of contentment like the awareness of it.
It takes two to miscommunicate as well as communicate.
Love and marriage break down rather than build up when left on their own.
People prefer the tried and the untrue to the untried and the new.
The most profound misconception of our time is the belief that technology is the great equalizer, when it is technology that is increasing the gap between the rich and the poor.
Once you have reached the top of Mount Everest, it's all downhill from there.
The solution usually aggravates the problem that it was meant to solve- war, for example.
Language exists to frustrate communication as well as facilitate it.
Mistakes and failure breed caution, which breeds conservatism. Radicalism, we blame on youthful inexperience.
If not for fools, angels might have to rush in where they fear to tread.
A conservative might become a neocon, once he has lost his natural reserve and feels sure that his side will prevail.
Every movement has always had its puritans that spoil the party for everybody else.
