I found these on the net somewhere and thought it worth posting:

1.  Words that soak into your ears are whispered…not yelled.

2.  Meanness don’t jes’ happen overnight.

3.  Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.

4.  Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.

5.  It don’t take a very big person to carry a grudge.

6.  You cannot unsay a cruel word.

7.  Every path has a few puddles.

8.  When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

9.  The best sermons are lived, not preached.

10. Most of the stuff people worry about ain’t never gonna happen anyway.

11. Don’t judge folks by their relatives.

12. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

13. Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back,

you’ll enjoy it a second time.

14. Don’t interfere with somethin’ that ain’t bothering you none.

15. If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin’.

Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

16. The biggest troublemaker you’ll probably ever have to deal with, watches

you from the mirror every mornin’.

17. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad

judgment.

18. Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin’ it back in.

19. If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’

somebody else’s dog around.

20. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.
