Well i looked around the forums everywhere, and there isn't one about you're everyday saying. You know when you're out and about, what do you love to say i public. :)

Mine used to be: Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

then it changed to: You can't change an unpleasant reality if you wont acknowledge it. You canonly control what you're willing to face. Truth hurts. But lies can Kill.

If someone asks me about life or anything about the world thats what i say ever time now.

What about you all? :wink:

There's only one thing I say often enough to annoy some people around me with it:
"It [may not be good, but it] could be worse"

People ask me why I smile. I say I smile for the sake of it... I just feel happy inside my skin. It's good to be me :lol:

Oh, I might post 2 or three times in this topic, but for now I like the new twists on this old saying:
When life hands you lemons, make lemonade...
(and if that doesn't work, throw the lemons back!)
or
(When life hands you lemons, find someone whose life has handed him vodka, and have a party!)

:lol:

"Yes B'y!"

from the Monty Python movie Life of Brian. it is a song but i love this part of it.

"Life's a piece of shit
when you look at it
Life's a laugh and Death's a joke its true.
When you're in the dumps
Don't be silly chump
Just purse your lips and whistle that's the thing
aaaannnddddd
Always look on the bright side of life."

i never fail to say (or sing) that during the day :roll: :P

another one, a little more deep, is from Lord of the Rings.
(Frodo says to gandalf that he wishes none of this would have happened to him and gandalf says in response...)

"...so do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide. all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

GOTTA LOVE GANDALF :P

Since I'm a House-buff:
Everybody lies.

Since I'm a movie-buff:
Next time I'll collect the money, and you can die. From Dragonheart.

....And here I am sort of ....[insert whatever is missing]-less. From Hercules.

Watch this! And Watch what? From Empire Strikes Back.

Of course I assume that inside-stuff with my bf counts as public too :P

My favourite part of the song. :D

You know, you come from nothing, you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!

Congrats guys, you actually made the "favourite saying(s)" thread a "favourite quote(s)" thread. Well done :roll:

OT: I don't have a favourite saying. Possibly "Don't throw rocks if you're living in a glass house", as I always say it :roll:

I don't do tratition sayings, they don't suit what I am. And my everyday sayings happen to be mostly quotes. It's still on topic even though it's not older than my mother :roll:

"The only way to recover from a wound is to acknowledge the scar"

This is how I endure many things. It keeps in my mind that the bad things we go through will make us stronger in the end. :)
