Words of wisdom from an old guy here with a basement full of '86s.
"A hundred years from now it won't make any difference at all."
It was his way to say "don't sweat it".

All women are crazy so you might as well go for the looks. I disagree. Smart man He's likely been twisted by a crazy woman. Seen lots of good men go the way of crazy women, terrible sight really.

I guess from my grandfather as well. On listening instead of running your mouth.
" You should be tuning in twice as much as you are broadcasting."
I guess that goes right along with the two ears and one mouth post from above. Very good advice, in business and life in general.
I am also a firm believer in the all women are crazy. maybe not now or maybe never again. But they are all crazy at some point. Looks make em crazier and most times age....both extremes of it.

Another variant is: Two eyes, two ears, two hands, one mouth. Use them in those proportions and in that order.
I am a conservative with a lowercase "c".

Not sure how numbers factor. I only have one penis and chicks only have one vagina. I'm not inclined to use my hand more because I have two of them. YMMV

It's not premarital sex if you don't plan on marrying them.
That one has always rung a bell for me.

From a favorite Uncle:
"If she left a guy for you, she'll leave you for another."
"Never step through the door way of a married woman's house, unless her husband is home."
"Never allow a woman through the door of your house, unless your wife is home."
He had a bunch of others, but I have found these three to be most valuable in my life.
Oh yeah, there was "Peter tracks on your zipper is much better zipper tracks on your peter."

Live fast, love hard, die young and leave a beautiful memory.
Words from an old country song.
( I didn't follow that advice.)
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

From my dad "Don't delude yourself into thinking the rest of the world give a s***. They don't" 'tis true that worrying about what others think is a waste of time.
Then the day I complained about a coach riding my case he said "let's say you're right. The guy's an azz. You can learn how to deal with an azz this season. That's a valuable skill because there's a lot of them in this world."

here is the BEST i ever heard, and it came when i desperately needed it. Well, if you want to simply be "a daddy" just go about life as usual, but with one extra mouth to feed.
If you want to be a great father, decide in your heart right now that your life is no longer your own. For the next 20+ years, you exist to be the husband and father that your kid deserves--no matter what it costs you. No matter what you have to give up. No matter what fun or other opportunities you have to forego. You are shaping a human life--and you will shape it--either good or bad.
Good luck. Well, I guess you never know what impact your words will have on others. I hope all is well with you and your family!
