Garage Wisdom

Those of us on the forums for a while have said some things that might be helpful wisdom for those just joining us. I'd like to see if anyone of those one-liners, sayings, or pearls of wisdom might come together so I can do something with them.

These are my favorite words of wisdom that I've heard on here:
There's no replacement for displacement.
Life is too short to drive boring cars.
Let's not confuse our competitors with equals.
Now, post some of your words of wisdom.

Arguing with some people is like wrestling with a pig in the mud. Sooner or later you figure out that the pig likes it.

A moment of inattention can cause a life-time of misery.

The car goes where the eye goes.
it's not the speed that kills, it's the abrupt stops.
keep yer rubber bits down, mate.

You can't win every race, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem.
