Love each other when you are not together. That is real love. One that can love only when he is together, never asks with whom he is.

Those that know a lot – talk very little. And opposite - those that talk the most, know nothing. That is related. Only thinking can prevent man from talk.

If you have to thrash your children, do that for no reason, because all other reasons are much more stupid.

This morning some fools are overtaking idiots because stoplights of some morons, in front of idiots, are not working.

DonÂ’t overtake smarter than you. Real goal is: who will drive longerÂ… not faster.

We canÂ’t live without other people. Some of them are making our problemsÂ… some others are solving them for us.

DonÂ’t insist on teaching your children domestic education if you donÂ’t know how to do that. No education is better than wrong education.

Price of newspapers will jump soon. ItÂ’s a shame that it is always due to cost of paper and never because of value of the content.

Start thrashing your children as soon as you notice that they are reminding you of yourself.

It is becoming too cold and expensive to bath regularly. Therefore, apply lightly some deodorant.
For first impression, thatÂ’s enough.
For second impression, no one has time any more.

To keep your maid, by her a concert piano. She wonÂ’t run away just like that.

One our fellow-citizen bite own tongue few weeks ago. That was the last time he felt meat in his mouth.

Smart people are lucky. They have a choice to be either smart or stupid, as they need. Stupid people are not that lucky.

Could people be better?
Yes, they could, but no one wants to start first. Everyone has a bad previous experience.

No one has more than one life. However, many people are wasting a few more lives besides there own.

If all men are cheating on women, it has to be, consequently, that all women have to be involved too.

Who want to be right all the time, he has to change opinion frequently.

We all like to have as much as we can, but we donÂ’t know to live happily from that. Nothing that we have can make us that happy, as unhappy we can be for that what we donÂ’t have.

When they metÂ… man that donÂ’t know what he want, and woman that know exactly what she want, that meeting has to finish in marriage.

Only cowards are trying to love several women. Brave and honest man is never afraid to love only one.

Modesty is not for everyone. It looks nice and appropriate only on those that well deserves to have right to be immodest if they want.

If someone is stupid, you canÂ’t prove even that to him.

If you are arguing with an idiot, first make sure that he is not doing the same thing.

When your opinions carry more weight, you can carry less.

Try to think this way:
If no one understands you, it can only be that you are not right.

Gifts are rare and cheap.
Everything else is bribe.

Today, women will groom their husbandÂ’s cars.
Publicly and loudly so that everyone can see and hear.
We are not that what we are, but that what others think that we are.

Woman has to be woman non-stop.
They never know when their husbands can become men.

Invest in your tummy!
That investment is giving fast and obvious results.
Investing in head is to much time consuming and uncertain.

Women donÂ’t want to be equal with men, that is nothing, they want to be equal with other women.

To get a real value of some people, it is necessary to divide their successes with number of influential friends.

If you solve all of your children problems, they will have no other problems except you.

Women!
Turn your home into a pub and you will be surprised how cheerful and entertaining your husband can be.
