"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language.
I just read that if your cat is looking at you and you slowly blink your eyes at him/her, and they slowly blink back...it's their way of telling you they love you. ahhhhh

It is a well-documented fact that guys will not ask for directions. This is a biological thing. This is why it takes several million sperm cells... to locate a female egg, despite the fact that the egg is, relative to them, the size of Wisconsin. Dave Barry
Actually I don't mind asking for directions.. my last girlfriend, tho, would rather drive around literally for hours before she'd stop and ask.
My Mama always said, 'Life was like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're gonna get.'"
Actually I knew it came from Forest Gump (duh)...lol but I thought he was quoting from another source. But when I googled it all I can find is that it actually came from the movie with Forest saying it as if it was his famous saying.

This is not a quote so it may be belong here...but it was something totally worth thinking about:
Wealth, Success and Love
A woman came out of her house and saw three old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them.
Then she said, "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."
"Is the man of the house home?" they asked.
"No," she said. "He's out."
"Then we cannot come in," they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened.
So, he said. "Go tell them I'm home, and invite them in!"
The woman went out and invited the men in.
"We do not go into a house together," they replied.
"Why is that?" she wanted to know.
One of the old men explained. "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to one of his friends, and pointing to another one he said, "This man is Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now, go and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her husband what was said.
Her husband was overjoyed. "How nice!" he said. "Since that's the case, let us invite in Wealth. Let him come in and fill our home with wealth!"
His wife disagreed. "Why don't we invite Success?"
Their daughter was listening from the corner of the room. She jumped in with her own suggestion. "Wouldn't it be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love!"
The wife agreed. "Then let us heed our daughter's advice," said the husband to his wife. "Go out and invite Love in to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the three old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest."
Love got up and started walking toward the house. Then the other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success, "I only invited in Love, as you directed. Why are you all coming in?"
The old men replied together, "If you had invited only Wealth or Success, the other two of us would have stayed. However, since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him, because wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!"
