"Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen and six, result happiness.
Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery."

"Creativity, as has been said, consists largely of rearranging what we know in order to find out what we do not know. Hence, to think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted."

Just remembered one more:

"Some of our kids are very poor, to them, apart from money, their parents did not give anything else" , Serbian Patriarch Pavle

I tried to translate it is best as I could so It would sound decent in English.

"Make me one with Everything!"

           -Buddhist Monk to a hot dog vendor.
Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!
