I Thought So - A Book of Epigrams - Attitude by Michael Lipsey

It is easy to forgive an insult, but harder to forget one.

Gossip slithers into my ear; may it die there.

Don’t worry what people think about you, because they rarely do.

Have sympathy for any personality defect, except cynicism.

We sink financially in order to rise socially.

Difficult people are like potholes: there is nothing to do but go around them.

The cell phone has exhausted all conversational possibilities, and still people are chattering everywhere, about nothing.

Hide your intensity, or it will scare people.

An angry face is never a pretty face.

Some people tend their grudges as others tend their gardens.

When we socialize we observe, gossip, schmooze and keep score, and on the way home we compare notes wth our partner in our researches.

We do not like to believe that we deserve to be anyone’s enemy.

People who always speak their minds have their fans, but they are few.
