Friday Flights of Fancy

Trying to decide what to write about this morning, and decided to share some more random sayings. I got these Cryptograms in a puzzle book, so there is no one to give credit to. 1. Someone has figured out that the peak years of mental activity must be between the ages of four and eighteen. At four, we know all the questions; at eighteen, all the answers. 2.One thing that's good about procrastination is that you always have something planned for tomorrow. 3. Public opinion polls prove one thing: the less people know about something, the more opinions they have about it. 4.It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice. 5. Half the world is composed of people who have something to say and can't, and the other half who have nothing to say and keep on saying it. Disclaimer: These are not necessarily my opinions, just sharing them for fun today.

@AnneEJ I know, after I left my comment, I scrolled down and read some of the other comments and I thought to myself, well I didn't leave anything original sounding! I guess great minds think alike!

@Juliaacv I certainly didn't expect long comments on these, but it is nice to see that they are appreciated. I like doing Cryptograms in a puzzle book, and there are always a lot of interesting sayings.

The only bad thing about procrastination, well, maybe not the only bad thing, but... tomorrow isn't always a better day. Eventually we are older and things seem to come up the more we put things off for that tomorrow. I'm worse these days than I ever was with procrastinating. I'm finally getting bookwork done from January to now. I hope I finish it, for if I don't it could take me another three months to get back to it again. My goal is to do it each month, but I'm not sure when exactly I hope to start

It is easy to put things off. But if we could only remember that things seem so much harder to do, the longer you let them go.

And fun they are! Thanks for sharing these with us. I had heard the 'nice to be important' one but the rest are new to me. People come up with some very witty sayings don't they?
