I love some of these quotes, what the heck was your friend thinking when he said he's not in his prime anymore? The 40's is where all the fun just begins! ;-)
One of my favorites is one I don't have a clue where I heard it or who said it is:
"You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it."
DEER PASSION sums it all up for me at this point in my life!!!!
Super quotes- but that one is my favorite:)
Ted's The Man!!
You gotta love Deer Passion...you never know what's gonna come out of her mouth! Your daughter isn't far behind her ;) I would have died laughing hearing her story about getting that goose egg on her forehead, hahah.
We had a dear friend pass away suddenly at the age of 47 a few years ago. He had one saying that he wrote EVERYWHERE and I even had to hand-paint it on his cars and bike. After he died and before his funeral, I ran around painting all our cars and bikes with..."Women may come and go, but legends are forever - B Hayden"
Thanks for those! You had some good ones! :o)
“The lack of power to take joy in outdoor nature is as real a misfortune as the lack of power to take joy in books.”- Theodore Roosevelt
Thanks for the additional quotes! I like your husband's version of that famous quote, T! Better than the original.
DeerPassion's quote is pretty good! It made me laugh! I like Mr. Hayden's, too! It's cool he is remembered that way.
