Beer the cause of and solution to all of lifes problems. Homer Simpton
Now pun on the old confusious sayings "a chinese philosopher"
It is good to meet girl in park but better to park meat into girl.
or Man who stand on toliet---high on pot.
My fav own qoute I thought of on a boring day:
intelligence is the ability to become wise but the smartest of use are usualy the least wise.
a mirrior is an illusion if you stare at too long will make you go mad.
arrogance and pride are two boats on the same river
love and hate are the same emotion seen under different light
Also a good qoute my father would always say to me cause I talk to much as a child.
It is better to let some one think you a fool than to open you mouth and erase all doubt.
A qoute my irish friend alwalys said usualy drunk.
God created wisky so the irish wouldn't rule the earth.
Later I though of this to piss him off.
God created wisky so the irish would breed.
