Everyone has heard: "The early bird gets the worm."

Which has always made me think: "The worm who sleeps in survives another day."

Good quotes can be found anywhere, books, movies.  Just a few off the top of my head,

1) "Birds of a feather flock together"- Rings true, you prefer people who are like yourself.  Friends, spouse, co-workers, favorite team...  

2) "Contradictions do not exist" - Ayn Rand- Book quote, it always proves true when things do not make sense to you.  Check your premises.   

3) "Look closer" - American beauty 1999? movie trailer I think.  Things are not what they seem...   

4) "A spoonful of Honey will catch more Flies than a gallon of vinger"  Benjamin Franklin, but I love founding father's quotes Madison, Franklin, Jefferson etc.  Just a goldmine of interesting thoughts so eloquently made.

Egon, this reminds me of the time you tried to drill a hole through your head. Remember that?

"Well behaved women seldom make history" is one of those  that's been overused and attributed to the wrong person for decades. I feel like it's been used in a sexy sort of way which is entirely out of context. If you add on "but they should" to the end of that quote it's closer to the intended meaning and changes the way it has been used.

My uncle though he was St Jerome.

I'd say that qualifies
