Groucho Marx:
Those are my principles. If you don't like them I have others.
Behind every successful man is a woman, behind her is his wife.
Either he's dead or my watch has stopped.
I have had a perfectly wonderful evening - but this wasn't it.
Room Service? Send up a larger room.
I must confess, I was born at a very early age.
I never forget a face - but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.
One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know.
Remember men, we're fighting for this woman's honor; which is probably more than she ever did.
The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.
And my personal favourite:
"Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana".

Everyone's quotes have been great to read, but the Groucho ones also made me laugh.
Let me add this one that I saw on an embroidered pillow somewhere:
If it's not one thing, it's your mother.

How about "It could be worse, Martha Stewart could be your Mother-in-law." On a plaque (pillow?)
or "Pessimists build dungeons in the air."
My daughter and I have been collecting these lately, but my mind is blank...maybe its bedtime.

You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover will be yourself.

about.
