I Love That Quote!

Just read a post that reminded me of how many times I've used quotes that are most memorable and most appropriate at times.
We have many "unique" members in this forum and I can't help but wonder what some of our posters find to be their most common used "stolen" phrases.
I'm hoping we can all find alot of humor in these personal thoughjts and hope it doesn't get ugly, well, too ugly.
Example: After a long, losing session at a casino I can't help but think; "If I only had a brain" .....Let's have some fun.....

" It will be all right Bob" Contractor to Bob Vila as Bob was bemoaning a rotted floor under the Refrigerator of a home they were restoring.
My Wife and I used it a lot. Especially when one or the other had just lost a bunch of money.

"If you ain't got nothing nice to say don't say it" TV personality in the 50s and 60s in Hawaii and many many people still quote him and live by this creed in Hawaii. That comes to my mind when I read posts by Doris and Tedlark.

My favorite is " parts is parts " from an old TV ad by Wendy's bragging about their chicken vs others processed chicken. I use this all the time when talking about cars, medical stuff, food, etc. You can still view it on Youtube. Great and funny commercial.

lose money apparently you do not heed your own quote. I see you've been a member here since 2008 and your first forum post was a shot at me? I feel so, honored? "I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them." - John Bernard Books

Ah yes...Junebugs...When my brother and I were about 8 and 10 and visiting the family farm in Southwestern Virginia, we would catch a couple and carefully keep them as pets for an hour or so. We always released them back where they were found. What beautiful coloring they had/have.
