    Always remember, for better or worse, where you are today, will not be where you are tomorrow.

    The best thing my dad ever told me was "I can't tell you what to do, but I can tell you what not to do". Meaning to listen and learn from his mistakes so I dont have to make as many. Unfortunately he died a year or so later and I even trying my hardest, I still ended up learning everything I know from making my own mistakes.

    Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.
    I used to tell the kids, It's not important to have all the answers. It IS important to know where to find them.

    If momma aint happy, nobodies happy. [Meaning nobody is allowed to be happy]

    No husband has ever been shot while doing the dishes

    Theres a lotta suction under a dozer.

    You never have to work another day in your life if you love what you do.

    And the one i tell my kids...

    Say what you mean, mean what you say, do what you say youre gonna do and finish what you started.
