Badass Bridge of the Day - The Daily What Famous life quotation | Our Funny Planet The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it. (W. M. Lewis) The only true wisdom consists in knowing that you know nothing If you can't get rid of the skeleton in your closet, you'd best teach it to dance. When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace. My tastes are simple: I am easily satisfied with the best. You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. Your time is limited, so don`t waste it living someone else's life. Everything comes too late for those who only wait. Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted. Write to be understood, speak to be heard, read to grow... Don’t settle for a relationship that won’t let you be yourself. In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life. ShareThis

Dear Mrs. Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store.. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. And last, but not least: 15.
