If your father is a poor man,
It is your fate but,
If your father-in-law is a poor man,
it's your stupidity.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman
And behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.

The wise never marry.
And when they marry they become otherwise.

Success is a relative term.
It brings so many relatives.

Never put off the work till tomorrow
What you can put off today.

There should be a better way to start a day Than waking up every morning
***********
'Hard work never killed anybody'
But why take the risk
***********
'Work fascinates me'
I can look at it for hours
***********
God made relatives;
Thank God we can choose our friends.
***********
The more you learn, the more you know,
The more you know, the more you forget
The more you forget, the less you know
So.. Why learn.
***********
A bus station is where a bus stops.
A train station is where a train stops.
On my desk, I have a work station....
What more can I say........
