I thought it would be interesting to start a thread where we could share quotes, sayings, proverbs, etc. that we've heard of, use often, live by, or just plain want to share. I'll start off and then will probably add more on as we go along. Please everyone, add on any you can think of as well!

"People have as much power as you give them"

"I'll Believe it When I See it" (or my favorite...)

"I'll See it When I Believe It"

"If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it" (jonathan winters)

and now for my voltaire trip..

"I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it. "

"Anything too stupid to be said is sung."

"I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend to the death your right to say it."

"Its not enough to conquer, one must know how to seduce."

OK and I guess for a lighter one:

"You can't bull**** a bull****er" (bf uses this all the time)
