Bits and Pieces Of Wisdom...........

Published on March 3, 2005 By Old_Crab In WinCustomize Talk

O.K. .......Got you alls attention. Now....just for hoots ...what do you think of starting a thread with little bits of wisdom? From authors, scientists, teachers, revered ones (holy seers and such) and of course ....er ummm hmmph...politicians.

Examples

"Logic is like the sword - those who appeal to it, shall perish by it."
- Samuel Butler

"It is always the secure who are humble."
-G.K. Chesterton

"We can forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light."
- Plato

"When you are arguing with a fool, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."
- Anonymous

I do hope everyone has some wisdom to share...........as always............Grand Raspberries to all and to all a good night or whatever.

Zero, where do you go.....I regularly fish the Mosquito Lagoon between New Smyrna Beach and Titusville Florida. In fact I'll be there is about 22 hours (5:00am EST) Occasionally I'll catch a ride offshore with a friend.
Here's a few I can see from my seat..

Here lives a Great Fisherman with the catch of his life!

Early to bed
Easrly to rise
Fish all day
Make up lies

We long to be heroes,yet we tend to be humans.

Illusion is the Achillis heel of logic.

Dream to hope of a future and live in present to conquer your dream.

Don't become the picture of anything,cause you are the essence of world.

...all by me in some small poems of mine.

The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge

Thumbs up Old Crab....you must be made of some old kind of wisdom.

"The worst way to miss someone is to be seated by his/her side and know you'll never have him/her" - Gabriel Garcia Marces....And that causes a tremendous feeling of loniliness and self-discomfort...been there...still there...and it hurts.

But life does go on.

Thanks SD, but you are too kind,(I am my own WORST critic..::laughs:

it's rough and dirty, defintely amature in nature and lacks that "professional" flavor that some have a "knack" for producing..

But hey, I had fun making it, and I'll have fun making Ver2, which hopefully turns out a little better.
