I don't believe in intuition. When you get sudden flashes of perception, it is just the brain working faster than usual. But you've been getting ready to know it for a long time, and when it comes, you feel you've known it always.

I dont think anyone can DO anything that would make him worthy of love. Love is a gift and cannot be earned. It can only be given.

When we would prepare the mind by a forcible appeal, an opening quotation is a symphony preluding on the chords those tones we are about to harmonize.

I have given two cousins to war and I stand ready to sacrifice my wife's brother.

I'd rather work with someone who's good at their job but doesn't like me, than someone who likes me but is a ninny.

On reaching his plane seat a man is surprised
to see a parrot strapped
in next to him. He asks the stewardess for
a coffee where upon the
parrot squawks "And get me a whisky you
cow!" The stewardess, flustered,
brings back a whisky for the parrot
and forgets the coffee.
When this omission is pointed out to her
the parrot drains its glass
and bawls "And get me another whisky
you idiot". Quite upset, the girl
comes back shaking with another
whisky but still no coffee.
Unaccustomed to such slackness the man
tries the parrot's approach
"I've asked you twice for a coffee,
go and get it now or I'll kick
you".
The next moment, both
he and the parrot have been wrenched up and
thrown out of the
emergency exit by two burly stewards. Plunging downwards
the parrot
turns to him and says "For someone who can't fly, you
complain too
much!"

make someone very happy."
Hillary: "Well, why
don't you throw ten hundred dollar bills out the
window and make
ten people happy."
Al: "Why don't you two jump out the window
and make me and Tipper
happy."
Tipper: "Why don't we all jump
out the window and make everybody
throughout the United States and
world happy."

At the airport for a business trip, I settled
down to wait for the boarding announcement at Gate 35. Then I heard
the
voice on the public address system saying, "We apologize for
the
inconvenience, but Delta Flight 570 will board from Gate
41."
So my family picked up our luggage and carried it over to Gate 41.
Not
ten minutes later the public address voice told us that Flight
570
would in fact be boarding from Gate 35.
So, again, we
gathered our carry-on luggage and returned to the
original gate. Just
as we were settling down, the public address voice spoke
again:
"Thank you for participating in Delta's physical fitness
program.

From a Southwest Airlines employee....
"Welcome aboard Southwest
Flight XXX to YYY. To operate your seatbelt,
insert the metal tab into the
buckle, and pull tight. It works just
like every other seatbelt, and if
you don't know how to operate
one, you probably shouldn't be out in
public unsupervised. In the
event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure,
oxygen masks will descend
from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the
mask, and pull it over
your face. If you have a small child traveling with
you, secure your
mask before assisting with theirs. If you are
traveling with two
small children, decide now which one you love
more.

As a crowded airliner is about to
take
off, the peace is shattered by a 5-year-old boy who picks that moment
to throw a wild temper tantrum. No matter what his frustrated,
embarrassed mother does to try to calm him down, the boy continues to
scream
furiously and kick the seats around him.
Suddenly, from
the rear of the plane, an elderly man in the uniform of
an Air Force
General is seen slowly walking forward up the aisle.
Stopping the
flustered mother with an upraised hand, the white-haired,
courtly,
soft-spoken General leans down and, motioning toward his chest,
whispers something into the boy's ear.
Instantly, the boy calms
down, gently takes his mother's hand, and
quietly fastens his seat
belt. All the other passengers burst into
spontaneous
applause.
As the General slowly makes his way back to his seat, one of the
cabin
attendants touches his sleeve. "Excuse me, General," she ask
s
quietly, "but could I ask you what magic words you used on that
little boy?"
The old man smiles serenely and gently confides, "I
showed him my
pilot's wings, service stars, and battle ribbons,
and explained that they
entitle me to throw one passenger out the
plane door on any flight I
choose."
