Non-political memorable quotes
I'll get this one started. My idea is quotes that deal with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, WITHOUT being political.
"Only a rank degenerate would drive 1,500 miles across Texas without eating a chicken-fried steak." —Larry McMurtry GoodOlBoy

Don't know if it's 'memorable', but I like my signature line....
"If your dog thinks that you're the greatest, don't go seeking a second opinion!" Saw that down at the bird dog museum in Grand Junction, TN...

Those who can't remember the past are doomed to repeat it.
When you find yourself in a hole, quit diggin'. The older I get, the smarter my parents get. Never criticize a farmer or rancher with a full mouth.
