Column Chronicles: Even more questionable quotes

Even more questionable quotes

It is not easy to say something wise and brief but a lot of people try. All of the best-quoted lines are credited to people who knew what they said imparted inspiration. Still, the annals of wisdom are filled with quotes that are so useless no one wants credit as their source. We offer you some more of those below, just in case you find them worthy enough to take credit for them.

There are worse things than death, maybe two, tops.

You know you are in love when you cannot fall to sleep before one in the morning.

Get busy living with the color of your hair, or get busy dying.

A friend is one who knows you as you are and never wants to see you naked.

It is hard to fail but to fall? No so much.

The happiest people get more because they give more and take less and never give what is taken away.

Only put off until tomorrow that which you care not about today or maybe ever, if you happen to die before tomorrow.

To be indifferent, one must be different, but not to care is to have cared before.

Nothing from nothing may leave nothing but sometimes its all you have to subtract.

Build up, slow down, get lost.

We toil and trouble to gain acceptance from others, but along the way the effort is worthless because no one cares, right?

All we see may seem a dream but it flows and goes like the real deal and then, kaboom, it's all over.

Keep it up until just before the hernia.

Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, taste the sweetness of the air, rest in the arms of Nature, sleep until you awake, pass urine often and always breathe.

In four words I can sum up all I have learned about life, and those words are, I will die some day.

Nothing is crap unless you dispose of it.

Yesterday, none of my troubles were so far away.
