I came across these “truths” back in1997. I think that they are still true.
- If at first you don’t succeed, destroy all the evidence that you ever tried.
- A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.
- He who hesitates is probably right.
- No one is listening; that is, until you make a mistake.
- Success always occurs in private; failure is in full view.
- The colder the X-ray table, the longer you will be required to lie on it.
- To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research. (I posted something similar back in 2008- “Interesting tidbits of sports trivia”)
- To succeed in politics, it is often necessary to rise above your principles.
- Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your life.
- The light at the end of the tunnel is usually caused by the headlight of an approaching train.
The site where I got these doesn’t appear to be “there” anymore so I guess it is safe to put these up.
