My personal favourite (and signature, when I can use it):
"What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of
chocolate."

You don't use the box of chocolates quote from Gump? |

Found these recently:
It is a mathematical fact that fifty percent of all doctors graduate in the bottom half of their class.
If two wrongs don't make a right, try three.
No trees were killed in the sending of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

No - that's way too pedestrian for me. Katharine Hepburn is my all-time favourite actress, and I admire her all the more because she had a love of chocolate!

I've used this whenever I possibly can:
Although I can accept talking scarecrows, lions and great wizards of emerald cities, I find it hard to believe there is no paperwork involved when your house lands on a witch. |

A passage from "The Right Stuff" struck me. Gus Grissom was never known for his philosophy so this was doubly ironic. In the heady days of the space race the astronauts were living legends. In one visit to a manufacturer the astronauts were asked to address the workers. While other astronauts were more media savvy , old Gus plainly wasn't.
When it got to him he mumbled into the mike " Do Good Work ". Presumably a joke meaning " It's my butt up there so make sure everything is o.k "
A week later another team from NASA arrived and found that the workers had a huge banner put up with the words " Do Good Work " in twenty foot high letters.
It's not a bad philosophy tho , however unintended |

Which leads me to believe the fact is,
We really ought to get more practice.

"If things are coming your way, then you are driving on the wrong side of the road" Anon
And here is a quotation inspiried by a Far Side comic strip
"An optimist sees the glass half full, a pessimist sees the glas half empty. I just see bad service, since I ordered a fucking cheeseburger."

While all of Mary Schmich's "Wear Sunscreen" speech has tons of good advice, my favourite is:
"Be kind to your knees. You'll miss them when they're gone."
