The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can never tell if they're genuine
Winston Churchill, 1944

Never argue with a fool. Onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.
Mark TwainHere's one from Mark Twain:
When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.

:
“If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time—a tremendous whack.”

Mark TwainHey, that's like one of my Abraham Lincoln Quotes:
Abraham Lincoln:
The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you never know when they are genuine.
I guess they were just very smart men :-\ :-\ :-\ However, Lincoln said a lot more than just that. But the same idea. Such as
Abraham Lincoln:
Don't believe everything you see on the internet.

It is better to remain silent and let people think you are stupid, than to start speaking and prove it.

My favorite fountain of quotes is Bill Bryson, the author of several traveling books. Like this from 'Down Under': Flying into Australia, I realized with a sigh that I had forgotten again who their Prime Minister is. I am forever doing this with the Australian PM – committing the name to memory, forgetting it (more or less instantly), then feeling terribly guilty. My thinking is that there ought to be one person outside Australia who knows. About its wildlife: That is what a crocodile attack is like, you see – swift, unexpected, extremely irreversible. Or when he is advised about the stonefish, hiding in the sand so you may step on its poisonous spikes on the back: 'And what does that mean exactly?' 'Pain beyond description followed shortly by muscular paralysis, respiratory depression, cardiac palpitations and a severe disinclination to boogie.' After settling in England, in the village where Ringo Starr lives, and his (British) wife mentions in passing that she has met Ringo several time - 'Nice chap': 'The Beatle Ringo Starr bought a hammer in our local hardware store and said hi to you and you didn't think to tell me.' 'It was just a hammer,' she said. You need not care about the travel part to read the books of Bill Bryson; you read them for their quotability. Highly recommended!
