    I was going to ask this earlier since I had a boring day of final exams to administer but I got distracted and forgot to post. It's nothing overtly political (God knows I'm sick of all political discussions/attacks), so I wanted to spark a discussion based on what you agree with in regards to these phrases. I'm sure I've left quite a few common catchphrases out so please feel free to add any you'd like.

    Of course, nothing applies to all situations, but for the most part, which of these phrases do you relate most to?

    Personally, I'm a "The end justifies the means" kind of guy. If something has to get done, find a way to get it done.

    I like TANSTAAFL from Heinlein's The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. It's fun to say.

    Never wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and the pig likes it.

    You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm.
