Churchill’s comment
Man will occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of the time he will pick himself up and continue onwards.
Clarke’s 1st law
When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right.
When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
Computer Programming: 1st Law of
1. Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
2. Any given program costs more and takes longer.

5. Any program will expand to fill available memory.
6. The value of a program is proportional to the weight of its output.
7. Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capabilities of the programmer who must maintain it.

What is midlife
Midlife is when the growth of the hair on our legs slows down. This gives
us plenty of time to care for our newly acquired mustache.
Midlife women no longer have upper arms; we have wingspans. We are no longer
women in sleeveless shirts; we are flying squirrels in drag.
Midlife has hit when you stand naked in front of the mirror and can see your
rear end without turning around.
Midlife is when you bounce (a lot), but you don’t bounce back. It’s more
like splat!
Midlife is when you realize that, if you were a dog, you would need a
control top flea collar.
Midlife is when you go to the doctor and you realize you are now so old,
you have to pay someone to look at you naked.
You know you are getting old when you go for a mammogram and know it is the
only time someone will ask you to appear topless in film.
Midlife brings the wisdom that life throws you curves and that you’re now
sitting on your biggest ones.
Midlife can bring out your angry, bitter side. You look at you
latte-swilling, beeper-wearing know-it-all teenager and think, “For this I
have Stretch marks?”
Midlife is when your memory really starts to go: the only thing you still
retain is water.
The good news about midlife is the glass is still half full. Of course,
the bad news is that it won’t be long before your teeth are floating in it.
God and love
No one has ever seen God but if we love each other, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
