Thought for the day

A few of my favourites:

"the true measure of a person is how they treat someone who can do them absolutely no good in return."

"Believe, when you are most unhappy, that there is something for you to do in the world. So long as you can sweeten another's pain, life is not in vain." - Helen Keller

"There is a wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life -- happiness, freedom, and peace of mind -- are always attained by giving them to someone else." - Peyton Conway March
 
I really like these, Miller. Thank you.
 
Angels are highly positive Cosmic beings, and they will not step into your life without first being invited.
 
Would Islam exist today if the Prophet Mohammed, (also known as Muhammad or Mahomet, AD 570 - 632, the founder of Islam) who proclaimed himself a "prophet of god" in 616, after his first vision, had been killed after a plot, before his flight from Hegira to Medina in 622?
 
Never be guilty of triumphalism after you have won, but most of all, not before you are declared the winner.
 
How well do you know your partner!!!???

...I'm thinking, as to what is beyond the most important thing, in this world, for us being here, and what it is that makes it worth remaining, or is it just fear of the step beyond.

....what will be our final utterance? A window cleaner fell from a high building and his m8 heard him shout in a loud voice "Ohhhhhhhhhhh s**t", and ...

Sometimes there is nothing you can say. There is no way out or perhaps it's another person who saves our day. Yesterday my life was saved by a bus driver who braked when a car was overtaking him/her, otherwise this post would never have taken place.

Final words of Stonewall Jackson .. (dying from loss of blood after being mistakenly shot by his own men) ...
"Let us cross the river, and rest under the shade of the trees"

PS the famous epitaph - forget where or who/whom?
"ever have one of those days when just nothing went right?"
 


The last words of an old East London man, aged 102, were not spoken. He raised his index finger sharply in the direction of his relatives. When they read his will he'd left everything to Battersea Dogs Home - I think that's the ultimate up yours.

A member of the UK's House of Lords died aged 100, can't remember his name, his last words were "I've had enough". Reports in London papers showed, so had many other people, from him that is.
 
...the lands remain divided as they await the reformation of the Isthmus that has long been lost.
 
Leaving money to "the dogs' home" is often joked about. In actual fact, organisations like the RSPCA simply would not survive without bequests.
Many, many people who have had the love and companionship of animals throughout their lives and found that love infinitely superior to what was offered by their fellow humans, are more than happy to leave their estates to animal welfare organisations.
 
If it has valid earning, plenty of cash and little debt, then remain sullen but ride out the storm and await quieter waters: Then it's on to the promised land.
 
I must say, it's been a pleasure working here for the last 20 years, Mr Mullens! The pleasure has been all yours, Mr Petres!
 
How far can you remember back or how much research have you done on money before the $. Can you answer a maths question for 1964, Yes you can, you say. Really, try this one then:

£8-6s-4d multiplied by £17-19s-6 1/2d

Too hard that one, try this one:

£31-1s-5d take away £9-3s-6d

Come on then, this is easy

I bought 100 shares in BHP at £8-5s-6d each. Brokerage was 1.5% and stamp duty 0.5%. How much did the purchase cost?
