Groucho Marx said it best:
"He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but don't let that fool you. He really is an idiot."
I live by two of my own sayings:
"Keep your goals high and your expectations low."
&
"Jumpin' Jesus on a pogo stick!"
Both have served me well...
im not sure if this is particularly wise but, "life's a *****, so f*** it"
A girl in hand ain't better than two in a bar... 
Try this the next time you're in mixed company and feel annoying:
Finish almost everything somebody says with "...Thats what she says."
It can get funny.
the one that helps me through life is...
"Never put off untill tomorrw what u can avoid completely."
helps me prioratise <_<

The way in which to describe Dr. Who:
:who's your daddy:J3sus! If you wanna watch a British import and laugh at it, watch one that's actually MEANT to be funny. Monty Python, Red Dwarf, etc. Not this "O nos! Teh evile garbage cans with spatulas are after us! Quickly to our low-budget space ship with only one room! My white fro will pwn teh daaaaleks!" crap. And usually that takes 4 episodes, 5 if the dog is there.
this is one that i made up it has no real use and doesnt usually help in everyday situations
"sex is good sex is fun sex is better up the bum"

Life is like being raped. If you cannot fight back, then try to enjoy it.

Sex isn't the answer, it is the question - yes is the answer.
