Some people are like tractors

 

Native Tongue

A few years ago, I decided to visit my brother who was stationed in Germany.

I assumed that most Germans would speak English.

But I found that many people spoke only their native tongue–including the ticket inspector on the train.

He punched my ticket, then chatted cordially for a bit, making gestures like a windmill.

I simply nodded from time to time to show him that I was interested.

When he had gone, an American soldier in the compartment leaned forward and asked if I spoke German.

“No,” I confessed.

“Then that explains,” she said, “why you didn’t bat an eyelid when he told you that you were on the wrong train.”

Quotes by Oscar Wilde - The truth is rarely pure and never simple.

 

Only the shallow know themselves.

I am the only person in the world I should like to know thoroughly.

Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes. 

Education is an admirable thing but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.

Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live; it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about and that is not being talked about.

Funny Quotes - Write a wise saying and your name will live forever. ~Author Unknown

I used to think I was indecisive but now I’m not so sure.

Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth.

If I won an award for laziness, I’d send someone else to pick it up.

I want to be like a caterpillar. Eat a lot. Sleep for a while. Wake up beautiful.

My bed is a magical place where I suddenly remember everything I forgot to do.

Unless your name is Google stop acting like you know everything.

Life has no hands but it can still give you a slap in the face sometimes.

Silence is golden unless you have kids. Then it’s just suspicious.

Don't mess with older people

  

Don't mess with older people

This old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said “I would like to withdraw $10”. The teller told her “for withdrawals less than $100, please use the ATM.

The old lady wanted to know why... The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her “these are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter. There is a line of customers behind you”.

The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said “please help me withdraw all the money I have.” The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her “you have $300,000 in your account but the bank doesn’t have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow?

The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to $3000. “Well please let me have $3000 now.” The teller kindly handed $3000 very friendly and with a smile to her.

The old lady put $10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit $2990 back into her account.

The moral of this story is....

Don’t be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.
