Harry Truman – Words of Wisdom

Jan 22nd, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | no comment »

Some of the best lessons I have learned in life come from people I never met.

I would like to share some of the ‘words of wisdom’ that I have picked up over the years.

Being too good is apt to be uninteresting.

(I’ll do my best to be uninteresting.) 

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

(or would you rather stay in the house?) 

If you can’t convince them, confuse them.

(This one cracked me up…and I have tried a few times, too.) 

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.

(It works! Try it on your children, your friends, your employees…) 

The buck stops here.

(Take responsibility.) 

What’s your favorite quote? and why?
