One good turn gets most of the blankets.

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

If you look like your passport picture, you definitely need the trip.

Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed of checks.

Middle age is when broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.

Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself. Paws

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

The scary thing about middle age is knowing you'll outgrow it.

Leo very wise,very thoughtfull but ...

I would disscas
The only part I would discuss for sure is ...

Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

That wish is a centures’ old, it is like finding The Holy Grai

land yet the Law of life... you have to learn on your own mistakes in case to understand what went wrong, How and WHY

In Russia we have an expression Only fools learn from own mistakes, the smart ones learn on mistakes of fools.

For myself I prefer to be a fool,and go through all wretchedness, misery, sadness, lonliness and contentment from beginning to end by myself . Then I am capable to understand and prevent.

Besides We cannot learn on mistakes of others, since everyone is different and only one of its kind and circumstances are dissimilar for every one.

No doubts We can take notes for ourself and remember… but when it comes to decide we will make a mistake. This is Life.
Hugs
peace

learned lessons - don't play with matches....

bottled water is best. Even here in Canada.

money doesn't grow on trees. Nor anywhere else for that matter.

don't look at the fine, feminine form that frollicks in yonder window unless you wish the pissy-mystic police after you...

men need to read Cosmo, or at least I do.

Live for today. There's a possibility you won't be here tomorrow.
The only thing in this life that is certain, is death.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Men don't know an 80.00 neglige(sp?) from a 25.00. Besides, its going to be on the floor in 5 minutes anyways.
