Philip L. Franckel’s Quotations

• Never under estimate the stupidity of your adversary.
• Everything isn’t shit.  There’s fertilizer in everything.
• It’s not time to worry until you’re being led to the electric chair.
• Don’t worry about what you can’t control.
• If you can’t do it, there’s another way.
• A problem is never a problem until it becomes a problem.
• If you want a more efficient way to do something, ask someone who’s lazy (I can always find a more efficient and better way).
• If you want it done right the first time, don’t rush.
• You never know who your holding the door for.  (I once held the door, while entering a courthouse, for an elderly man.  He turned out to be the judge I appeared in front of – it went well.)
• Never memorize, always understand the reason or principle. (The secret to graduating aeronautical engineering, law school and passing the Bar without studying.)
• People with low self esteem or who don’t have, pretend to have. Beware of pretenders.
• People who say something derogatory about someone else are always describing their own trait.
• If life is too boring, turn on the TV! (or read a book or learn something useful like website building on the internet-start at WordPress.com & WordPress.org)
• After age 40, calories have to be worthwhile (that means at least Godiva or even better, teuscher, perhaps teuscher Champagne Chocolate Truffles).

Not my quotes but ones that are good:

• There’s always another bus behind the one you just missed. (This applies to everything in life from relationships to business and more.)
