That's very true. Just ask Napoleon Bonaparte...oh wait...he's dead. That makes it more difficult, doesn't it? :D
True... wasn't there a screwed-up quotes thread last week?
*hijacks thread*
Didja hear the one about the dyslexic man who walked into a bra?

You know what they say: People in glass houses sink ships.
And a penny saved is worth two in the bush.

Vimto is, you know, a beverage made by englishmen and served at my favorite middle eastern cafe.

But two in the bush can get kind of crowded. Better to have that bush all to yourself.

"It is better to have loved and lost than to have engaged Russia in a land war in winter."
Where is that from?
(Not to be confused with the quote from The Princess Bride)
According to the source it's from Germany.

Or summer. They only have to hold out a little, and before you know it it's winter again.

It's not whether you win or lose that counts, but who dies with the most toys.
Don't forget, the only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.
