21 Century Wisdom Sent to Me by a Friend

I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.
If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
One seventh of your life is spent on Monday.
By the time you make ends meet, they move the ends.
Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.
Indecision is the key to flexibility.
You can't tell which way the train went by looking at the track.
There is absolutely no substitute for a genuine lack of preparation.
Happiness is merely the remission of pain.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.
Sometimes too much to drink is not enough.
The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.
The careful application of terror is also a form of communication.
Someone who thinks logically is a nice contrast to the real world.
Things are more like they are today than they ever were before.
Anything worth fighting for is worth fighting dirty for.
Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.
Friends may come and go, but enemies accumulate.
There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.
This is as bad as it can get, but don't count on it.
Never wrestle a pig. You both get dirty and the pig likes it.
The trouble with life is, you're halfway through it before you realize it's a do-it-yourself thing.

Youth and skill are no match for experience and treachery.

  2. I like some, some are dumb but this one, 'never wrestle a pig, you both get dirty and the pig likes it' helped me out soooo much yesterday.
    Someone i like and admire spoke to me real harshly when i was least expecting it, infront of other people, he was in a mood and was up for a fight, i was just upset by his dumb-ass comment. I remembered this funny thing and didn't fight back. LOL He was just being a pig. Thanks Don guy!
