    Default best life quote

    Alright guys all this grandparents talk has got me wondering. What's the best quote yall have heard about life from an old timer?
    “… duckhunting stands alone as an outdoor discipline. It has a tang and spirit shared by no other sport—a philosophy compounded of sleet, the winnow of unseen wings, and the reeks of marsh mud and wet wool. No other sport has so many theories, legends, casehardened disciples and treasured memories.”
    --John Madson, The Mallard, 1960

    "Never trust a duck hunter who cares more about his success than his dog's."

    A close family is the most important thing you can have besides being saved.

    A Young Bull and an Old Bull are standing on a hill.
    The jittery young bull turns to his elder and says, "Look at all those cows down
    there just waiting to be fucked."
    "Come on, Come on man, let's run down there and fuck one of those cows."

    The old bull turns with a smile and says, "slow down son, let's walk down there and fuck em all."
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    From my old man - If you missed it with the first two why do you think you're going to kill him with the third.

    him on buisness - Don't make you're problem my problem

    First time heading to Myrtle - You might think you're tough, but they'll beat your ass with a pool cue over there.

    After one bad night - Son that shit will kill you. Put water in it, and don't shoot it.

    Taking him fishing offshore - I baited your hooks while you were a child. It's your time to pay me back.

    Give me a few, I have some good ones.

    God watches out for dumbazzes, drunks and kids. The rest of us are supposed to have more sense.
    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    My uncle told on more than one occasion, "invest your money in land, they ain't making no more of and it ain't getting any cheaper". He died a wealthy man.
