Quotes, sayings or proverbs.
Personally, I'll go with the following: -"Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in his shoes. Then when you do criticize that person, you'll be a mile away and have his shoes." -"Patience will come to those who wait long enough for it." -"T’are not our problems that define us. But the way we deal with them." |

Well my favourite quote is the one I used to have in my sig:
Tout ce qui est simple est faux, et tout ce qui est compliqué est inutilisable - Paul Valéry Overly simplistic perhaps but it still holds an ounce of truth. Another one is quaedam iura non scripta sed omnibus scriptis certiora sunt. From Seneca I believe. One of them anyway. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyway, my own favorite quote: "Wees uzelf!" zei ik tot iemand, Maar hij kon het niet; hij was niemand. By P.A. de Génestet. In English: "Be yourself!" I said to someone, But he couldn't; he was no-one. [ 04-15-2003, 07:04 AM: Message edited by: J'aran ] |
