Oh what a dangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive.
To treat others as I'd want to be treated.
Didnt really have one when I was younger.
I got locked up in jail in 1958 , he told " you got yourself in here , now find a way out".
A good leader is always the first to arrive and the last to leave.
Don't do as I did.
dont have kids
listen carefully before speaking
Do as I say, not as I do
Never eat any yellow snow.
Leave this sleepy town.
If it' not broke don't fix it.
You will never find a lamb in a pig pen.
Don't have kids!!
Keep your mouth shut and don't throw the first punch
A promise made is a debt unpaid.
In 5 years, You'll be the same person you are today , except for the people that you meet and the books you read.
You never "save" money unless you put it in the bank.
Don't take your guns to town, son!
Keep your guns oiled and your fishing line untangled.
When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.
You will never amount to much.
My Dad gave me many gems, but these were my favorites:
Life is hard, but its a lot harder if you're stupid.
If you can't be smart then you'd better be strong.
If you join the Army and you drop a bar of soap in the shower, don't bend over to pick it up. Just let it go!
Never go out with a woman you can't beat arm wrestling.
Save your money.
Obey the law.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Oh, and "don't get married until you're 30." I didn't need to be told not to have a child out of wedlock...that went without saying. Though if it had happened, he would have loved his grandchild.
Don't bet on the ponies.
Keep your fly zipped!
Never give up
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Never measure someone else with your yard stick
