sjtillA little late to the thread but
quote:
Reminds me when my ex wife went to medical school, she had a guy in her class who started when he was 44 years old, after a career in banking up to that point. Someone said 'You'll be 48 years old when you graduate, why would you do that?!?' He said, "How old will I be in 4 years if I don't do it?"
This is pretty much exactly what my wife told me when she was encouraging me to start medical school at what turned out to be age 30, starting cardiology practice at age 40.

Rosahane”Eagles may fly, but weasels don’t get sucked into airplane engines”
...maybe not an inspirational quote - indeed the opposite, but indicative of the situation in many workplaces and the operational principles of the ‘empty suits’ who arrive to great fanfare and move on before their incompetence becomes too obvious.
On reflection This may an inspirational quote for most politicians

DakorMy favorite BFranklin quote is my Avatar tagline.
I always get a chuckle out of this logic:
1. To find a woman, you need Time & Money, therefore Woman = Time x Money
2. "Time is money" so Time = Money
3. Therefore Woman = (Money)squared
4. "Money is the root of all problems" so Money = Square Root of Problems
5. Therefore Woman = (SqRt(Problems))Squared... more succintly Woman = Problems
