Quote & Thought for the Day -- Friday, 13 Mar '09

“You may delay, but time will not.”
My Thoughts:
As it is said – Time and Tide wait’s for none. You may stop for the time being, but time would not.

Your days on earth are numbered. You better catch up with time so that you complete your task on this earth.

“The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.”
My Thoughts:
My Dad says this “a closed fist is worth million rupees”. Unless the other person knows what is inside your clenched fist, he might think that it’s something precious you are holding, even if you are holding nothing.

So show your wisdom by holding your tongue, wherever you can

“People will accept your ideas much more readily if you tell them Benjamin Franklin said it first.”
--David H. Comins
My Thoughts:
We all have a comfort and a discomfort zone in our minds. These comfort zones for someone are created when you trust them or have an image of authority for them.

So you readily accept the ideas given by these people. But if the same thing is proposed by someone in your discomfort zone, then you are likely to reject that idea.

“He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.”
My Thoughts:
This quote is very simple, straight forward stuff. But did you find a hidden or implied meaning in this?

Just remove the word Money from it and put whatever noun you want. And then you would find the mentality of most of us.
