My elders have passed down many good sayings over the years, lets hear yours. I will start

Never waist your time arguing with idiots, if they had the capacity to understand rational thought you wouldn't be arguing with them anyway.

My grandad used to tell me "never trust a man that wears a suit to work".


Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

My granddad used to say it’s best to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt

“Take your hat of in the house, you’re not Jewish.”

Never understood when I was younger that is was a sign of respect to remove your hat when entering someone’s home.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.
And that grandpa had nickname's for everyone, what a character.
And other grandpa would always say take care of it like your gonna own it forever.
He was a mechanic and owned a gas station, he would go out and see people just stop in to air up tubes or tires
And he tell'em to get your air where you get your gas. laugh
My wife said I better put my saying in to "run it like a rental"
And "it'll buff out" .

If it's got teats or tires it's gonna give you trouble.
Never trust a man with a limp handshake.
All that laughing is going to lead to crying
If your dog doesn't like someone you shouldn't either
