Affirmations and Verses

Just because the sign is bent doesn't mean the point can't inspire.

Everybody loves a good quote now and then, particularily affirmations that apply to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness and God. The Church of No Preference is no different. We collect sayings, post verses, repeat mantras, and generally like to mesmerize ourselves with sentences that seem to have deep meanings.

Look, we're human afterall. If we were God, we wouldn't need a bunch of sentences made up of words meant to make us think, now would we? Well, maybe we shouldn't presume so about God. Maybe God spends the entire day thinking up inspirational lines purely out of amusement. Anyway, below are several sayings that have been recently collected by No Preferentists.

Don't expect to see your inner soul by admiring yourself in the mirror.

Mirages in the desert sure look thirst quenching, but you'll never get to taste them.

If you spend enough time being amazed at the spin of toilet water as it flushes, you'll have to pay a higher water bill.

Sudoku may be fun now, but someday you'll think "it's just a bunch of numbers in boxes."

If you collect chunks of dirt, don't leave them outside in the rain.

If you thought the 1960's was all about drugs, spend a day watching the pharmacy counter.

Tiptoeing a fineline, and walking a tightrope involve balance and concentration, or you could just sit on a fence.

Laptop spelled backwards is pot pal.

Facts and statistics can make you more informed and a good contestant on Jeopardy, but that's not in the form of a question.

You can point out other people's problems, but what's your point?

Wise is the saying that makes you think, but don't believe it unless you blink.

We've spent many an hour and day debating and discussing these words of wisdom and some of us now have headaches, but we do it for the seeking of truth. We find doing this much easier than climbing mountains or running marathons, although there is nothing wrong in that.
