Just this morning I had someone come in to my business and they were really rude and unreasonable. It made me think of one of my favorite quotes and I thought it would be fun to post a thread on these...

heres one of my favorites -

It is a mistake that there is no bath that will cure people's manners, but drowning would help.....Mark Twain

Hey, just because I'm on a diet doesn't mean I can't look at the menu!!!

Success is the sole earthly judge of right and wrong.......great quote, but horrible person who said it.

Another good one is "Aude Vide Tace" Hear, See, Remain silent.

Save your defense for the jury. Better blatant than latent. I'm going to beat you into the next zipcode with this salami log.

I'm going to drive to (fill in your area's closest poor area) and laugh at the one person living beneath my standards.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Fear none, respect few.

Reminder: It is illegal to stab people for being stupid!

Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.
