I am "young and invincible"
Try everything at least once (for me, there are very few exceptions to this)
Do something new you've never done before every day of your life
That that don't kill me can only make me stronger
Don't worry about tomorrow 'cause it has enough worries of its own
Life will always take care of itself in the end
Some song quotes I try to live by:
"You're the only one who can hold your head up high." --Tool
"All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be." --Pink Floyd
"And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make." --Beatles
"I can't complain but sometimes I still do, life's been good to me so far." --Joe Walsh
"And I ain't got no worries 'cause I ain't in no hurries at all." --Doobie Brothers
From Little Miss Sunshine:
"This is the voice of experience speaking, fuck a lot of women." (don't you think sleeping with only one person in your whole life'd be boring?)
"Do what you love, and fuck the rest."

Kill or be killed
Chivalry isnt dead it never existed
..............."So be it till their is no enemy but peace" -Rifleman's Creed- USMC
Take all and give nothing - Sun Tsu
"Only the dead have seen the end of war" -Plato
Their is no such thing as a fair fight
"The only thing needed for evil to triump over good is for good men to do nothing" -???
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee." - Ezikeil 25:17 - The Bible

wow, there's so many. lol im the guy always saying them, especially when I'm giving someone advice.
right now, all i can think of are..
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
what goes around, comes around.
"La vida y la muerte caminan juntos, pero el amor llega más lejos"
I thought of that one, high as heck, while presenting a reggae band i was promoting.
there's no EXACT translation so it's something like
life and death walk close and together but cannot keep up with love.
hahaha:wtf:
it sounds a lot nicer in spanish

damned right. i've seen enough wack shit in my life to know that there's something supernatural going on in life... i also believe that:
everything that happens happens for a reason.
chivalry is not dead. (motto of one of the frats at my university, and i like it)

life's a bitch, and so's your mom
can't turn a ho into a housewife
you reap what you sow
Sleep when you die
I aint no bitch
You can't respect somone who doesn't respect themself
young , dumb, and full of cum; forever young
pull up to the club, i'm vip. gastank, on "e", but all drinks on me
treat others as you would have them treat you
women and children first
want to get to know everyone
got straight to the top, and never let yourself stop
"this fool aint no fool"
don't trust anyone
you are what you eat, "and do"
lies kill, and time heals
make love, not war
money is power is money

BE KIND!
If the truth won't do, then something is wrong!
I will survive everything except that which finally kills me- and then I'll be dead (and busy dealing with what comes next), so why worry?

Kindness and decency count
To those whom much is given, much is expected
Be a good steward of the earth and environment
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you
The one-to-five rule, which applies especially well to marriage and child-raising but also to teaching and plenty of other circumstances:
For every one time you criticize, make sure you you counter that with five instances of praise or positive, loving comments.

When my body says no my mind says yes.
Don't trust anyone.
Failure is not an option.
The golden rule but don't let people take advantage of you either. Treat others well like you would want to be treated but always look out for number 1.
Mississippi Steve
08-12-2007, 03:59 PM
The golden rule is always number one
Don't put yourself in a position where somebody has to *DO* something about it
No matter what the job, *ALWAYS* do it the same way you would want it done in your own home, with you paying the bill, and you being in the trade.
There is no such thing as a free lunch
If it sounds too good to be true, or it feels wrong, then it probably is.

Well I say "fuggit" all the time. Its my little "goosefrabba" word that makes sure I remember "not to sweat the small shit."
But as far as what I live by? Three simple rules:
-To remain as open-minded as I can about everything and everybody
-To attempt to learn everything there is to learn about everything and everybody in the universe at any time in any format, at any cost.
-To realize that I know nothing.

"What goes around comes around." Which is really just a paraphrase of "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." That's worked pretty well for me all my life: the more kindness I dish out, the more I seem to get back.
I can even give an example, sort of. The woman was out of town visiting relatives for a few days last week. Well, I was really happy when she got back, picked her up at the airport. Woman went to the bathroom and had me wait for her luggage to come around. While waiting there, an older lady asked me for help with *her* luggage, me, the long-haired hippy guy standing in the midst of piles of suit-wearing guys. But I was glad to help her out, got all three of her (heavy ass) pieces of luggage for her.
Then we got my woman's luggage and on the way home, we stopped by Quiznos and I bought us some kickass prime rib and peppercorn subs. I told her about the lady asking for help with her luggage, and she said I had an aura of kindness around me, that she had noticed it too. Then the Quiznos cashier just flat out gave us some free sodas, out of the blue.
I guess I was just full of kindness and happiness that day or something, but people were definitely reacting to it, even strangers. It was kinda freaky really.

lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand
just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy.

If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Everything eventually comes full circle.
You teach people how to treat you.
Practice random acts of kindness.
Learn from the mistakes of others.
Drive it like you stole it!

Accept fault and improve. I can do anything well after a few thousand tries.
My wife is here to make me a better person, whether I like it or not.
God is not (i)always(/i) out to get me.

what doesn't kill me only makes me stronger

Smoke weed everyday!
Legalize it!
