If you watch the movie "Jaws" backwards, it's about a shark throwing up people until they have to open the beach.

No wonder kids are ashamed of the truth.

One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living.. All the typical answers came up -- fireman, mechanic, businessman, salesman, doctor, lawyer, and so forth.
However, little Justin was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his father, he finally replied,
'Okay...my father's an exotic dancer in a Gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes in front of other men and they put money in his underwear.
Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he will go home with some guy and stay with him all night for money.'
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some exercises and then took little Justin aside to ask him,
'Is that really true about your father?'
'No', the boy said, 'He actually works for the Democratic National
Committee and helped get Barack Obama elected President last year, but I was too embarrassed to say that in front of the class.'

Talking Simplest Truths In Fewest Words:

WHEN INSULTS HAD CLASS...
These glorious insults are from an era BEFORE the
English language got boiled down to 4-LETTER WORDS...

The exchange between Churchill & Lady Astor:
She said, "If you were my husband I'd poison your tea."
He said, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."

A member of Parliament to Disraeli:
"Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease."
"That depends, Sir," said Disraeli, "whether I embrace your policies or your mistress."

"He had delusions of adequacy." - Walter Kerr

"He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire." - Winston Churchill

"I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." Clarence Darrow

"I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it." - Mark Twain

"He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.." - Oscar Wilde

"I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend.... if you have one."
- George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill
"Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second... if there is one."
- Winston Churchill, in response.

"I've just learned about his illness. Let's hope it's nothing trivial." - Irvin S. Cobb

"He is not only dull himself; he is the cause of dullness in others." - Samuel Johnson

"He is simply a shiver looking for a spine to run up." - Paul Keating

"In order to avoid being called a flirt, she always yielded easily." - Charles, Count Talleyrand

"He loves nature in spite of what it did to him." - Forrest Tucker uncl

"Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?" - Mark Twain

"His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork." - Mae West

"Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go." - Oscar Wilde

"He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts... for support rather than illumination." - Andrew Lang (1844-1912)

"He has Van Gogh's ear for music." - Billy Wilder

"I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it." - Groucho Marx


(I hope there are a few here you haven't heard before...I know Thumper posted
at least the last one in one of his blogs I read, and probably more.)

OK,, my turn:

Robert Kennedy
The greatest truth must be recognition that in every man, in every child is the potential for greatness.

Confucious
Three things cannot long be hidden the sun, the moon, and the truth.

Dogen
If you cannot find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it? Thanks to Josette Champagne.

Susan Sontag
Lying is the most simple form of self-defence.

Albert Schweitzer
Truth has not special time of its own. Its hour is now—always and indeed then most truly when it seems unsuitable to actual circumstances.

Martin Luther King
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
... when you have eliminated the impossible, that which remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

Boris Pasternak
What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim of every cup.

Malcolm X
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against.

H.L. Mencken
Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband a month before she marries him and what she thinks of him a year afterward, and you will have the truth about him.

Proverb
Truth fears no trial.

Charles Colton
The greatest friend of truth is time, her greatest enemy is prejudice, and her constant companion humility.

John VII
And ye shall know the truth,and the truth shall make you free.

Unknown
The ability to ask questions is the greatest resource in learning the truth.

Carl Jung
We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect; we apprehend it just as much by feeling. Therefore, the judgement of the intellect is, at best, only the half of truth, as must, if it be honest, also come an understanding of its inadequacy.

Oscar Wilde
The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Robert M. Pirsig
It is a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door and you say, 'Go away, I'm looking for the truth.' and so it goes away. Puzzling.

Harry Truman
I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell.
