He's as much use as a one-legged man in an arse kicking contest.

Not a saying but such a witty response-

Peter Cook to Dudley Moore, a one legged Tarzan applicant:

" I have nothing against your right leg, it's a fine speciman..., only neither do you"

Kid mak bot hua - Think too much you will get a head ache (Thai obviously)

If you believe you can, or if you believe you can't you're right.

Man can make a hell of heaven or a heaven of hell in his mind (paraphrasing John Milton)

Spoke with my elderly father today sounding out a problem. Fixed the problem but low marks on empathy. He was never a a big fan of Dr Benjamin Spock and child reared on the Julius Ceasar model of "let them hate as long as they fear". Always saw his job as a father first not a friend and I will be eternally grateful for this.

Two quotes of note from our conversation.

"if you want sympathy in this world it's between shit and syphillis in the dictionary"

And.....next time I have a similar issue I am to " pick up the phone, dial 9, and ask for the padre"

You can see why he missed his calling on the suicide phone hot line.

Love the man...
