Wie nooit van mening is veranderd, heeft zelden iets geleerd.
Wie het verleden kent, kent het heden.
Een groot mens is hij, die zijn kinderhart nimmer verliest.
In hun natuur zijn alle mensen gelijk; het zijn hun gewoonten die de verschillen maken.
Snoep verstandig, lik m'n reet.
You are not your job
You are not how much you have in the bank
You are not the contents of your wallet
You are not your khakis
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake
You are just the same decaying and organic matter as everyone else
Weird Product Manuals
1. On Sears hairdryer:
"Do not use while sleeping."

2. On a bar of Dial soap:

(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head colds off those
forklifts.)
8. On Nytol Sleep Aid:
"Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(One would hope)
9. On most brands of Christmas lights:

(NEWS FLASH)

(Was there a chance of this happening somewhere? . . . Good grief!)
14. On a bottle of Palmolive Dishwashing liquid:
"Do not use on food."
(Hey, Mom, we're out of syrup! It's OK, honey, just grab the Palmolive!
