One way to get high blood pressure is to go mountain climbing over molehills.

What good is it to know the price of everything but the value of nothing?

Thanks, Gus, I was afraid that I might be stepping on your toes with your other TRF members quote thread but as you cleared up for me you want a different kind of post there. Happy you're enjoying this thread!

"I did not follow that path that would have made me of no use either to you or to myself, but I went to each of you privately and conferred upon him what I say is the greatest benefit, by trying to persuade him not to care for any of his belongings before caring that he himself should be as good and wise as possible, not to care for the city's possessions more than for the city itself, and to care for other things in the same way."--Socrates, from Plato's "Apology," translated by Peter J. Steinberger in Readings in Classical Political Thought (2000).

I had a teacher that used to have a quote a week, one I remember was:
Make new friends but keep the old, the new are silver but the old are gold..... On the topic of pay peanuts get monkeys, I was once told, paying top dollar for an employee does not get a better worker, but more than certainly buys you a better quality of deserter.....

Always put your seatbelt on before starting the car and make sure that everyone else does too.

It's always better to be over dressed than to be under dressed.

Always take your time. There is always time to do it right, seldom time to do it twice.
