My FAV quotes are from Miss Piggy.......I L♥VE the last one....

Never eat more than you can lift.

Too much exercise can damage your health.

There is only one gift you should accept on your first date – diamonds.

Never wash your hair with anything you'd hesitate to eat or drink.

Moi's hair has natural curls. So does my tail.

I, moiself, have always enjoyed a good scrimmage.

Many people think money is something to be set aside for a rainy day. But honestly, how much money do you really need for a dozen or so hours of inclement weather?

I am waiting for a really strong and meaningful female pig role.

I am a pig, and as a pig, I have always stood out.

All my scenes are my own. A double? Impossible! I am unique.

When I go to the dentist, I don't ask him to tell me what he knows about the Edict of Aunts or why Charlemagne Boneparte lost the Battle of Honeydew to the Melons.

I hereby issue a writ of hocus-pocus.

Roger. Your quotes are so good but Wallace has a list of funnies. Moi's hair is naturally blone.

The great part of these quotes, they make sense. Not always easy to do, but sure do make sense.

Roger, There was an article about Oscar in the weekend paper about his visit to Cincinnati once upon a time.  Apparently he and the city didn't get along all that well :)

That's my favorite too Barbara...............love Oscar Wilde.

Yep, great minds think alike BARFF, that's my favorite also.................you knew it would be too.

I've fallen enough times Conrad, so I hope I remember to continue getting up.

Thanks Sheila, that will be our next lesson, it's easy.  Now that you've mastered "copy and paste" time to move on to iPiccy and photo editing and collages.

So funny Wallace, love the Miss Piggy quotes.

I like her list too #50.

Pretty cool folks aren't they Sally and David..............make it a great weekend for yourselves too.

Wow, maybe I can teach you something Flooring Girl..................it's easy, I learned all on my own at iPiccy.

Yeah, so many of them don't make sense Joe, I agree, but these do.

Glad you enjoyed them Ginny................

For some reason, that doesn't shock me BLiz, I imagine he was an acquired taste.

Any time Jared.........just keep visiting.

Thanks Wayne, you do the same.

Very good quote by Mr. Wilde..............I love it Michael, thanks.

I think you've been upstaged by Miss Piggy.

These are great quotes to live by. Yours...not Miss Piggy's.

Even God said in the bible, love thy enemies.  I tried it with my exwife.  That took all I had and now the best resolution is distance.  The farther the better.
