Favourite Quotations
Post your favourite quotations here. 🙂
We could have a "quotation of the month" every month if there are enough quotations (the quotation with the most Helpfuls that would then be marked as Solution), or maybe we can mark as Solution all quotations with more than a certain number of Helpfuls, like 5 Helpfuls?
Any suggestions?

·4 years agoThis isn't exactly a quote but we had a teacher (a nun) tell us this when I was in Year 7.
If you want to know if something is important or worth worrying about, use the 5 year rule.
If it will be affecting your life in some way in 5 years' time, it is important. If you will have forgotten it in 5 years' time, then take what you can from it and forget it.
She told this to us after about 90% of the class failed a Maths test and some girls got upset. LOL
She said the score wasn't important and we would have forgotten it in 5 years, all we needed to do was take note of the weak spots and work on them.
She wasn't quite right. I remember I scraped in at 54% but I know I wouldn't remember if she hadn't talked about it.

·3 years agoVery interesting, springyzone, but I think it depends on many factors, like a person's sensitivity, possible similar traumatic experiences etc.
It is the same as "Time heals all wounds". Maybe for most people, but not always.
