Title: True sayings
Post by: taximan on Wednesday, 14 February 2018, 05:07 AM
I was talking to an old Gypsie gentleman years ago, always remembered him saying . . . . . .

To lend and spend and give away,
is the easiest thing you can do in a day.
To beg and borrow and gather your own,
Is one of the hardest things to be known.

"No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth" - John F Kennedy.

(sometimes erroneously attributed to Josef Goebbels)



"The trouble with Socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money"
- attrib to Margaret Thatcher

(in fact she said "Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people's money" but the meaning is essentially the same and the 'well known' version is good as 'sayings' go :)  )

If it's not broke, don't fix it.


If it's broke, don't bother with it until the wife threatens to stop feeding you. :imrgreen:
