Sayings

"Money doesn't talk, it swears"
-Bob Dylan

These are a few thoughts that don't have much to do with each other other than most examine "sayings" or ideas. I am not sure if these are all original.

There was at least one road that did not lead to Rome - try the one from Pompeii in 79 AD about 2 seconds after Vesuvius stopped erupting.

In the 70s we hated drinking water out of a plastic container - better to get the "fresh" stuff right from the tap.

If the meek were to inherit the earth, they'd get muscled out of it as soon as the non-meek members of their offspring grew up and organized.

Most people, and Americans (and probably even me), who ally with one specific political party, speak as if their party should always be in power - but would we want a one-party system? Didn't we fight wars, cold or otherwise, to prevent just that?

In the 70s VW bugs and Austin Minis were cheap cars - now they are luxury vehicles.

A dog hates it when you blow in his face but get him in the car at 100 KPH and he sticks his head right out of the window and just loves it.

Some people like dogs, some cats, some birds and so on. I think almost everyone likes horses.

I don't think it's true that "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger". If we are speaking of "it" in terms of it being capable of killing you, then whatever doesn't kill you probably weakens you and weakens you by quite a lot. Ok: If you're talking about Lance Armstrong then in that case I am wrong.
