My DI in the Marines used to say "It's mind over matter. You don't mind it don't matter" Theres times when I still look to that one.

"Never miss a good opportunity to shut up."

That's a good one.

Here are a few good ones...i worked with an old man that would drop these little one liners every day.  I started writting them down in a book.  I have over 200 of them.  Unfortunatley most of them are not fit for this forum.  

1. He was tight as bark on a tree;
2. He was as nervous as a dog sh-tting a peach seed.
3.  Dark as the inside of a bear
4. He's about as usefull as pocket on the back of a shirt.
5. His eyes rolled back in his head like a dieing calf in a hail storm
6. That's as useful as tits on a boar hog
7. I'm so unlucky i could fall in a barrel of T_ts and come out sucking my thumb
8.  I'm so mad i could lay down and piss straight up
9.  He looked as out of place as a turd in a punch bowl
10.  if it hurts...your probably not doing it right

My late Dad's only two sayings, which I heard time and again:

"Too soon old, too late smart."  
(When the day's events/weather/news/markets showed a different previous choice would have been a better course of action)


"From the day you're born 'til you ride in a hearse, it's NEVER so bad that it couldn't be worse"  
(Applicable to lost love, financial reverses, and farming in general, but he pulled this out on me several times as a young man when I REALLY wished he wouldn't!)

From my dad while growing up," I'll tell you when you are hurt"

A reference to my first boss, "The man has very deep pockets, but extremely short arms."

[TaterHill Archer]

suzie_shooter beat me too it.  My dad always said, "Can't never did anything."  He also says, "Anything worth doing is worth doing right."

I'll add one.  "That's neater than a whole tree full of hoot owl babies."
