I love the look and sound of a cleverly turned

phrase.

Just saw this one somewhere a few moments ago and think it's wonderful!

"They're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us; they can't get away this time!" -- Lt. Col. Puller, USMC

1. another good USMC quote from Sgt. Dan Daly

"Come on you sumbitches, you want to live forever!"
As he led the charge up over the parapits at the Battle of Belleau Wood in World War I.

2. I have always loved

"Settle down, if you keep acting like this, your life will be a series of going up and then down and then all over....and the next thing you know....you're sideways." Great advice given to me by a friends dad during a drinking binge.
