Invent a quote!!!! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

equus · 08-02-2006, 02:08 PM

In my mission to be brief (and avoid the verbose, long windedness of my previously overly wordy posts filled with un-needed details, unlike this of course

) I thought we could start a semi silly thread...

Invent a quote (which came to mind only because randomly driving home in my car I did invent a quote by accident and thought 'Cool!!') So here without further ado (or side comment of absolutely no relevance whatsoever) is the quote! Made by me!

"When life falls apart only pick up the pieces you want to keep."

Phew - you'll be glad to know that's it and you can stop reading and won't need to print this out to read on the bus because I'm trying, VERY trying as some would say......

Any more home grown beauties in the quote department?

Edit to change lie to life!! (Don't worry I'm not going to comment on my error)

on the what if's of life...

What if my aunt had balls.......then she'd be my uncle.... (not really MY quote, but I have no idea who the author is)

A statement of truth!!! Unless of course it's a dead parrot! But I'll refrain from the entire dead parrot thing....

If something sounds just a little bit off, go and investigate.

Strong logic. An aunt with sacks is really just an uncle.

Never dance naked in the street naked and shouting at women.

You will get arrested.

If you think the milk has soured, don't ask ME to taste it and see.

Think about it, there's wisdom in there somewhere

If you like what you're getting keep doing what you're doing!

That's funny Indigo.....

The other day I dreamed that I was dreaming, and didn't realize I was asleep until I woke up (because I thought I was thinking about dreaming).

words are like footprints in the sand ... they are where your mind has been

life ... get into it ... not out of it

I don't know why I'm thanking you when it's too late.
