Words to live by

A good friend of ours, Lloyd V Bliss passed away last weekend and I was asked to speak at his funeral. I asked his family to provide me with a list of their favorite "Lloydisms". Let me share just a few of them with you.

"Whats the worst thing that could happen?"

"Of course we're active. We just don't go to church."

"Did your head fall off?"

"Always pay your employees the most you can afford-not the least they will accept."

"If you are going to be a fool, be a quiet fool."

"If you have the power, you have the responsibility to be generous with the other party."

"I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people who annoy me."

"There are three kinds of people. Those who can count and those who can't."

If he did not want to do something he had the following replys:

"I'd rather have a dead rat in my mouth."
"Give me 24 hours notice so I can make other plans."
"I choose not to participate."

Live with great principles and act on them. No one would have ever remembered the Good Samaritan if he only had good intentions. We should all live such good lives that when we die even the undertaker will be sorry.
