Murphy’s Lesser-Known Dictums:
· Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
· He who laughs last, thinks slowest.
· Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don’t.
· Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
· The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there’s a 90% probability you’ll get it wrong.
· The things that come to those who wait will be the things left by those who got there first.
· Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day drinking beer.
· The shin bone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.
· A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
· When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of 12 people who weren’t smart enough to get out of jury duty.

This is perfect, I love quotes. Here are a few I like:
"He came to pay a debt He didn't owe, because we owed a debt we couldn't pay"
"Start every morning as if it's on purpose"
"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, unless the tree is on a hill"
"There is nothing more unequal, than the equal treatment of unequals"
"If you let peoples perception of you dictate your behavior you will never grow as a person"
"Great leaders are followed by those who are respected by great leaders"
"He came to pay a debt He didn't owe, because we owed a debt we couldn't pay"
"Start every morning as if it's on purpose"
"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, unless the tree is on a hill"
"There is nothing more unequal, than the equal treatment of unequals"
"If you let peoples perception of you dictate your behavior you will never grow as a person"
"Great leaders are followed by those who are respected by great leaders"
