In the spirit of LindsayRyans "Fun Survey", posted in the Type 1 Diabetes Forum (check it out if you have not already taken it!), I submit the following:

What is your favorite quote(s) or sayings (for those of use in the Southern U.S.)?

I have a few. "Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way", "Go for it", and "Let the chips fall where they may."

"In order to more fully understand this reality, we must take into account other dimensions of a broader reality."
- Prof. John A. Wheeler, Ph.D., Physicist

"Every age, every generation has its built-in assumptions; that the world is flat, that the world is round, etc. There are hundreds of hidden assumptions, things that we take for granted that may or may not be true.

But we’re locked into these precepts without even knowing it, often times. That’s a paradigm."

So many great quotes! Mine are way less inspired, but ever since 9/11, I try not to "sweat the small stuff," and "count my blessings."

My grandpa: "A bargain isn't a bargain unless you need it."
and "When everything else fails, read the directions."
Mine would be...

"It is what it iss.."

And then to slightly contradict myself "Nothing is ever what it seems..."
