Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they are NOT after you.

Those employees not fired with enthusiasm...soon will be.

Lady Astor: "Sir Winston, you are drunk". Winston Churchill; "My Lady, I may be drunk but you are ugly. In the morning, I will be sober but, you will still be ugly".

I do love that one

Another funny one:

Lady Astor to Churchill, "If you were my husband, I'd poison your tea," to which he responded, "Madam, if you were my wife, I'd drink it!"


"A little knowledge is a dangerous thing"

I do not know where the quote originated from, but it's fairly on the mark!

I'm guessing it was around a bit longer than the movie. Likely about as long as bulls have been doing cows.

Here's a few that are always guaranteed to make me smile...

Hell is other people.

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, then you may have underestimated the seriousness of the situation.

Life’s ***, and then you die.

A psychotic is a guy who’s just found out what’s going on.

They told me to smile, because things could be worse. So I smiled, and things got worse.

That light you see at the end of the tunnel? It’s a great big express train, heading your way fast.

All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
