Do you have a motto or personal credo you live by?

[ShihTzuTylenol]

I think it would be fun if we each come up with a saying that describes us, our interests and goals, perhaps. I'm working on a new one for myself as a matter of fact. What a coincidence.

Like, let's consider the gentlemen of the U.S.M.C., whom share the iconic battle cry, "Semper Fidelis" [Always Faithful]; and the educational foundation U.N.C.F. has practically become synonymous with their monumental declaration, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste"; and when the lion roars at the beginning of a film made by M.G.M., you may have seen this in the arch over his head, "Ars Gratia Artis" (Art for Art's Sake).

There are literally millions of these wonderful slogans of belief floating around and they seem to aspire to strength and triumph as they inspire wisdom and understanding. Some are very famous [E Pluribus Unum (Out of many, one)] and some infamous [John Dillinger was "Public Enemy #1" for a brief stint] while others are even a little eccentric [like the proud motto of Austin Texas, "Keep Austin Weird"]... dood, hope I'm not boring you ---stay with me one more minute--- ...and I swear that kid taking orders at the Taco Bell window stands firmly on, "I just started last week."

I think if he gets a credo we deserve one to! So wadda ya say boys? Since it's justus let's come up with some credos that will show the world "we're here we're queer and we're peers"



**crickets chirp**



okayokayokay that was a stupid one but you get my drift right? It can represent you as an individual or your buds as a group or your neighborhood watch as a bunch of goobs, doesn't matter, Just Do It... okay I stole that from Nike ______ just do your best; be bold and honest...... and unmerciful. You'll do fine...





So, my old credo goes something like this...


Man creates art creates man creates art creates man...

[refujiunderground]

one motto that i live and die by involves going to the bathroom. "swipe until it's white. if it's brown, then there's shit around"

also the infamous.. "if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit". that's so true. replace glove with anything from clothes to condoms and it's true.

[The White Stripe]

"All men dream; but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act out their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”

-T.E. Lawrence.

[Hard-up1]

I cried when I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. And then I laughed... really hard.

And then there is the ever-gay, "I cried because I had no shoes, but then I met a man who had no taste!"

There is a quote from an old (1930's or 1940's) that goes, "I want to live hard, die young, and leave a good looking corpse." I think it is from a gangster movie

[HunterM]

Laughter, indeed, is the best medicine. I love to laugh...especially at others!

"On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, in 'Le Petit Prince')
Which I think I could translate into :
"One sees clearly only with the heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye."

I try to always give my honest opinion rather than lying because people would think it's inappropriate or wrong.

"Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank. Give a man a bank and he can rob the world."
