"Have enough sense to know, ahead of time, when your skills will not extend to wallpapering." ― Marilyn vos Savant Topic(s): Life More From Marilyn vos Savant "A good idea will keep you awake during the morning, but a great idea will keep you awake during the night." "Be able to back up a car for a considerable distance in a straight line and back out of a driveway." "Skill is successfully walking a tightrope between the twin towers of New York’s World Trade Center. Intelligence is not trying." More In Life "If you knew that your life was merely a phase or short, short segment of your entire existence, how would you live? Knowing nothing ‘real’ was at risk, what would you do? You’d live a gigantic, bold, fun, dazzling life. You know you would. That’s what the ghosts want us to do – all the exciting things they no longer can."― Chuck Palahniuk "These are tough times and under this Tory-led government many people in Manchester are suffering and getting left behind. If elected I will use all my energy, skills, experience and knowledge to stand up for our communities and get things done for the better."― Lucy Powell "We must declare ourselves, become known; allow the world to discover this subterranean life of ours which connects kings and farm boys, artists and clerks. Let them see that the important thing is not the object of love, but the emotion itself."― Gore Vidal
