What Is Your Favourite Quote?

[Spoonboy]

What is your favourite quote, or one you live by? Mine, a little biassed I suppose, is two of my own in third book I am currently writing: historic fiction set in the wake of Trajan's Roman Britain.

"Seldom is praise given due", and "Through the eyes of the oppresssed, the proclivities of the oppressor endure".

What is yours, and thanks in advance.

I don't understand your "seldom is praise given due" - what do you mean? People get praised when it's not due to them? Not in my experience!

I've never seen a guy get picked up by his testicles before. Lucky for you that cop passed by when he did, or you'd be lifting your snutz to tie your shoes.
