“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy.”
--American politician Robert G. Ingersoll

There are many! This one comes to mind since I am on my computer programming today.
"I don't know what percentage of our time on any computer based project is spent getting the equipment to work right, but if I had a gardener who spent as much of the time fixing her shovel as we spend fooling with our computers, I'd buy her a good shovel. At least you can buy a good shovel." Erasmus Smums |

This one is pretty clever and always one of my favorites...I think it is roughly paraphrased from Shakespeare:
"I would challenge you to a battle of wits but I see you are unarmed". Last edited by BMWGUYinCO; 08-02-2023 at 10:24 AM.. |
