Saw in another thread that scuba-punk has a signature line that reads:

"Life is a tragedy for those who feel and a comedy for those who think."
- Fortune Cookie (really!)

I have one I've carried around for years:

"When you think you are too old to do a thing - do it."

Any other words of wisdom from the Cookie???
 
"There are always more fish in the sea
Not as cute, nor as witty, nor as intelligent,
But fish nevertheless!"

Got an email from a guy who used a signature. I doubt it came from a fortune cookie, but it made my day and still does...

"No man is an island, but if you tie a bunch of dead guys together, they make a pretty good raft."

One quote that I have always thought was very impressive .....

Don't put a period where God intended a comma.


makes ya think huh?
 
We always add two words to the end of them. "in bed" Makes for some interesting fortunes.

My fav was "You can't always please everyone, so please yourself first."

On another note, I think fortune cookies should have realistic sayings in them. Like,
"The person across from you has bad breath."

Oh - I still have my favorite fortune cookie message from many years ago..

I was at the intersection where I could either go straight to work, or maybe go for a quickie cruise.
****O.K. - quick confession.... it was way back when, and I had just bought a new screeching blue Iroc-Z Camaro w/ t-tops only because my dad hated them and I was 18.......*****
Anyway, I was munching on some fortune cookies that we had bought for a family dinner the night before, and as I was waiting at the intersection, I cracked open another cookie, and the message read "Those who are late are often happier than those that wait for them".

It was a bit eerie, but I still went for a short drive anyway...lol....

Makes me think of that Simpson's episode where Homer is tempted by Mindy, the new plant worked.
The part that killed me was when the restaurant workers were going to give them their fortune cookie's and they said "we are all out of the `you'll find happiness with a new love`" "Open up the `stick with your wife barrel`"
