#7621A well adjusted person is one who makes the same mistake twice without
getting nervous.
#7622A well-known friend is a treasure.
#7623 A young honeymoon couple were touring southern Florida and happened
to stop at one of the rattlesnake farms along the road. After seeing the
sights, they engaged in small talk with the man that handled the snakes.
"Gosh!" exclaimed the new bride. "You certainly have a dangerous job.
Don't you ever get bitten by the snakes?"
"Yes, upon rare occasions," answered the handler.
"Well," she continued, "just what do you do when you're bitten by
a snake?"
"I always carry a razor-sharp knife in my pocket, and as soon as I
am bitten, I make deep criss-cross marks across the fang entry and then
suck the poison from the wound."
"What, uh... what would happen if you were to accidentally *sit* on
a rattler?" persisted the woman.
"Ma'am," answered the snake handler, "that will be the day I learn
who my real friends are."
#7624Accept people for what they are -- completely unacceptable.
#7625According to the obituary notices, a mean and unimportant person never dies.
#7626Adam was but human--this explains it all. He did not want the apple for the
apple's sake, he wanted it only because it was forbidden. The mistake was in
not forbidding the serpent; then he would have eaten the serpent.
-- Mark Twain, "Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar"
#7627Advice is a dangerous gift; be cautious about giving and receiving it.
#7628Advice to young men: Be ascetic, and if you can't be ascetic,
then at least be aseptic.
#7629After all, it is only the mediocre who are always at their best.
-- Jean Giraudoux
#7630After all, what is your hosts' purpose in having a party? Surely not for
you to enjoy yourself; if that were their sole purpose, they'd have simply
sent champagne and women over to your place by taxi.
-- P.J. O'Rourke
