Statistics indicate that there are 3 types of lies:
lies, damned lies, and statistics.
There's a fine line between ignorance and arrogance.
[I think this one comes from Duck's Breath comedy group.]
A rolling stone gathers no moss, or anything else of

Forgive the nitpick, but I believe the actual statement is:
The answer to the ultimate question of Life, the Universe, and
Everything is 42.
Using the same source, God's final message to all his creation
is: We apologize for any inconvenience.

Were one to lay all the people who go to church on Sundays end-to-end
They would be a lot more comfortable.
How many young maidens placed head to toe (rather than laid end-to-end
;-) would be needed to go from Reading to London?
About 40,; for a miss is as good as a mile!

It always takes longer than you expect, even if you take into
