I once quoted this in one of the threads , and I got severely rapped :D :D :D :D

Here goes ....

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime - Confucius

I used to collect quotes that I found to be interesting/amusing. I dug up a few of them here. These are all attributed to Albert Einstein.

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

God is subtle, but he is not malicious.

When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That’s relativity.

If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.

I know another good one from Einstein, but I'm not sure if its true or only legend. It is said that asked once by a woman to explain the difference between time and eternity he said:

I have time to explain it to you, but you need an eternity to understand it.

Here's a couple I like:

"I am always ready to learn, but I do not always like being taught" -Winston Churchill

"The founding fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on their parents. So they provided jails called school, equipped with tortures called education" -Norman Douglas

"You cannot teach a person anything, you can only help him find it within himself" -Galileo

"I never let schooling interfere with my education" -Mark Twain

"There is too much education altogether, especially in American schools" -Albert Einstein

"It is the deed that teaches, not the name we give it. Murder and capital punishment are not opposites that cancel one another, but similars that breed their own kind." -George Bernard Shaw

"Ignorance will make you a prisoner, stupidity will guarantee you will remain one" -Andrew Navarro (my old american history teacher)

"Everytime you make an excuse, you're lying to yourself. If you want to get ahead, stop lying" -???

Alin, what are you doing? Are you using google to broke the magic here? :D

I know this one from a movie (I think it was When Harry Meets Sally):

If one day you decide that you want to spend the rest of your life with one person you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
