What is the most inspiring thing ever said to you?

[Compaq]

Me: I don't honestly know. I'll have to think about that one.

I'm interested to see what you guys and girls come up with. And, before someone else do it, here is it:

"You're a really great dad,Dad."

 

[MissCream]

"You're a really great dad,Dad."

A '88 Buick that rudely removed my right leg (don't worry, they glued it back on) and inspired me to live as full a life as I can, to enjoy every moment no matter how painful for tomorrow may never come as fast as you can flip a switch.


Well, it was never said with words but damn if it wasn't inspiring :bangs head:

My sister once told me:

"You are just a terrible human being".

And from that moment on, my life has been fulfilled.

The most inspiring thing ever said to me:

To win the race, use the brakes less, and the throttle more, than anyone else in the race.

 

[Forkie]

"Either pick your clothes up off the floor or no sucky, sucky".

"It does not matter, what you do, or don't do, people will believe whatever they want to believe about you, no matter how ridiculous their beliefs might be."

B.S. baffles brains, partially because the former has too much B.S. and the latter has too few brains.

Jack London wrote - "I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. The proper function of men is to live, not exist."

Oakland Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler and his teammates were once visited by a sportswriter at the team's headquarters in California. The man had just returned from the Jack London historic monument and was still impressed. During his interview with Stabler, he quoted the above sample of London's prose. Stabler nodded. "What does that mean to you?" the writer asked him. Stabler paused for a moment before replying: "Throw deep!"

I told my husband to stop doing stupid **** that got him into trouble. He replied "But then I wouldn't have a good reason to bring you flowers"

Not something that was said to me, but something that I read...

“This is a rule of racing: No race has ever been won in the first corner; many have been lost there.” - Garth Stein, the Art of Racing in the Rain

You can't.

Not possible.

Last I could remember was "how the %$^& could you treat a woman like that" <--my professor when I thought I knew what was going on, set up a key and fill, and botched the lighting height/angle on a model. There were little shadows under her eyes.
