"It is the very mind itself that leads the mind astray; Of the mind, Do not be mindless."
I believe that was Takuan Soto but I could be wrong.

Re: What is your favorite quote/saying?
Too many to list, but here are a few:
"Life is hard, it's harder if you're stupid"
"Because when every second counts, help is alawys minutes away."
From my High School Football coach, George Yamamoto....
"Practice does not make perfect. Practice makes better and you can strive for excellence. Excellence is an achievable goal while perfection is not. Perfection is an ideal and so cannot exist in the real world. To seek perfection is to set yourself up for failure."

Re: What is your favorite quote/saying?
i have several, but these two stand out...for now
if you sit by the river long enough, you will see the bodies of your enemy float by -- japanese proverb
and this one
It is not work that kills men; it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more upon a man than he can bear. Worry is rust upon the blade. It is not the revolution that destroys the machinery, but the friction. Fear secretes acids, but love and trust are sweet juices. -- Henry Ward Beecher
this one i just think is funny
The factory of the future will have only two employees, a man and a dog. The man will be there to feed the dog. The dog will be there to keep the man from touching the equipment.
Warren G. Bennis

Re: What is your favorite quote/saying?
Everything is better when General Patton said it! I love to search videos of him speaking. AMAZING!
No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.
George S. Patton
Favorite of all time...
"We'll win this war, but we'll win it only by fighting and by showing the Germans that we've got more guts than they have; or ever will have. We're not going to just shoot the sons-of-b*tches, we're going to rip out their living Godd*mned guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Hun c*cksuckers by the bushel-f*cking-basket. War is a bloody, killing business. You've got to spill their blood, or they will spill yours. Rip them up the belly. Shoot them in the guts. When shells are hitting all around you and you wipe the dirt off your face and realize that instead of dirt it's the blood and guts of what once was your best friend beside you, you'll know what to do!" -- George S. Patton

Maybe not the best teaching method but sometimes an attention getter. And the old favorite

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Then I gathered my shit and got to work!
Send Lawyers, Guns, and Money, the Shit has Hit the Fan!
Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, and more money.
Though I walk through the valley in the shadow of Death, I shall fear no evil,
For I am the baddest motherf@#$er in the valley.
These are some of the more entertaining ive read or heard. Authors unknown.
