Quotation

We were having a discussion this afternoon and I came out with the old line:

"If you cant say anything positive, then there is no point in saying anything"

Now I thought that this was Winston Churchill, but between us we weren't certain.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

these are Churchill.....oh yes!


Everyone has his day and some days last longer than others.

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.

Great and good are seldom the same man.

However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results.

If you are going through hell, keep going.

I prefer the personal motto of WSC:

KBO - Keep buggering on!

In life a man may fall down many times. Only if he refuses to get up is he a faliure.

We can't have any racism on this site, but which asian would you like to be quoted.

I gather you ignore this advice, as I do too.
