I love deadlines. I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.
Tell me what you need, and I'll tell you how to get along without it.
Accept that some days you are the pigeon and some days the statue.
Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If he isn't there the first time, chances are you won't need him again
I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.
Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky, and I thought to myself, “Where the heck is the ceiling?â€
On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key.
I don't suffer from stress. I am a carrier.
You are slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter.
Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, and then beat you with experience.
A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the butt.
Don't be irreplaceable - if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.
The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get.
You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.
Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.
If it weren’t for the last minute, nothing would get done.
When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.
Following the rules will not get the job done.
If there's nothing wrong with me,
maybe there's something wrong with the universe!

Wow, these are so very true!! I come across some of these people on a daily basis.
Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tires, a touch that never hurts. - Charles Dickens

First I thought this one worked for me... then I got to thinking. I AM irreplaceable! Who could possible fit in my shoes, or even WANT to. It can't be better put than this...
"I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together." And I use this quote from "I am the Walrus" by the Beatles to exemplify my point. Did ya think I was anything less than myself?
Live to love, love to live.
