    The more you run over a dead cat, the flatter it gets.

    This is as bad as it can get, but don't bet on it.

    Never wrestle with a pig: you both get all dirty, and the pig likes it.

    Any and all compliments can be handled by simply saying "Thank you," though it helps if you say it with a Southern accent..

    No books will be as good as the ones you loved as a child.

    Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables: get someone else to hold them while you chop away.

    Never give yourself a haircut after 3 martinis, or 3 margaritas, or 3 shots of tequila.

    When baking, follow directions. When cooking, go by your own taste.

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, your body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "Woo hoo! What a ride!"

    The trouble with life is you're halfway through it before you realize it's a "do it yourself" thing.

    Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person too.

    The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

    It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, and it's true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

    It takes only a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

    Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

    The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything that comes along their way.

    "The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body. After all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind."
