Well, I suppose it isn't really a saying, but a quote making fun of a saying.
Give a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. — John A. Hrastar

Eh, I think the original to Zait's is:
Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for life.
Which is actually a very good saying. I'm also fond of:
"The walls we build to keep out the pain also keep out the joy." and ...meh let me go look it up, it's from Dune, but I can't recall the exact wording...
"There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and oppression to develop psychic muscles." That's one of them...The other is the Litany Against Fear. (Which honestly, I have repeated to myself on occasions.)
The Litany Against Fear
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
I think that's all of them for now...I keep a whole file or two of quotes and sayings that I like if you guys want me to send it to you sometime.

"And remember kids, with great power comes great opportunity to abuse that power." ~Black Mage, 8-Bit Theater^ This is the part where I would tackle you in a big hug and probably violate you if you were a female. But you're not, and I'm straight, so that's not happening. Black Mage is my idol. I want to be just like him when I grow up. If you like BM, I also suggest you check out Tin at snafu-comics.com. =) |

how is that not appropriate? It's not like you made a beaner joke. I'll do that if you'd like though XD
Hmm currently I think mine is one I saw on a shirt:
"I'm Jehova" on the front "(You didn't witness s***)" on the back, except not censored. I want that shirt.
