Don't be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps.

cop414 · 14 September 2013, 08:59 PM

Don't take yourself too seriously. And don't be too serious about not taking yourself too seriously

cop414 · 15 September 2013, 08:38 PM

There are hazards in anything one does, but often there are greater hazards in doing nothing.

cop414 · 16 September 2013, 09:37 PM

A pessimist is one who maked difficulties of his opportunities, an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties.

/\ .. thats good.. Hey Cop414 - do you have a book on all these sayings.. We should call this the cop414 thread.....

cop414 · 17 September 2013, 04:28 AM

Thomas, not a book so much but I have about 40 or so pages that I've typed up. I started putting them down on paper when I was going through my divorce 15 years ago, kind of theraputic. I'll keep posting them until I run out. Some of them I can't post here because of length or content. Hope you enjoy them...

Good one Grady.

Here's one for all TRFers who do the running thing, I'm one of them...

I am sometimes asked, "Are you a serious runner?" Well human beings don't come with odometers so one can not say that by going a certain distance makes you a serious runner. If your running is important to you, then you're a serious runner.

cop414 · 21 September 2013, 09:29 PM

Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.

Life is a compromise of what your ego wants to do, what experience tells you to do and what your nerves let you do.

mannyv11 · 25 September 2013, 10:38 PM

Not sure if this one has been said...

Don't take life too seriously, you're never going to get out alive

=) one of my favorites for those days when it just seems like everything is against you

To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them.

Shakespeare / Hamlet.
