One who never asks either knows everything or nothing.

There's one post-Christmas chore I love-writing thank-you letters.... Lots of companies for many reasonable reasons, I guess, have a policy against sending even Christmas cards, never mind things, at Christmastime. But our clan gets a big kick out of opening the Warner-Lambert box containing an assortment of their wares; we argue over which of the boys is to get the Union Oil Co. necktie [and] all the holiday long we play the marvelous Christmas music sent by Goodyear.... None of these things means that Forbes or Forbeses have been had. But all of us like being thought of.

Things there are no solution to: Inflation, bureaucracy & dandruff.

One's real worth is never a quantifiable thing.

People who say that money isn't the most important thing in the world are usually broke.

He who says he never needs help, most does.

Some people as a result of adversity are sadder, wiser, kinder, more human. Most of us are better, though, when things go better.
