horse congratulations winning
There is little to compare with the thrill of standing next to the creature in the winner's enclosure avoiding his hooves and receiving the congratulations of the press, your trainer and friends who backed it. What makes the experience so satisfying is that you, the owner, have had absolutely nothing to do with the horse winning.
add public-speaking
Beware of the conversationalist who adds "In other words."
self mirrors wife
I have little patience with anyone who is not self-satisfied. I am always pleased to see my friends, happy to be with my wife and family, but the high spot of every day is when I first catch a glimpse of myself in the shaving mirror.
men bed should
A man who has his initials on his pyjamas must be uncertain of himself. Surely you should know who you are at bed time.
trouble should critics
If the critics were always right we should be in deep trouble.
talking silence mind
We are articulate, but we are not particularly conversational. An Englishman won't talk for the sake of talking. He doesn't mind silence. But after the silence, he sometimes says something.
sports men wheels
The ball is man's most disastrous invention, not excluding the wheel.
long tourists british
The British tourist is always happy abroad as long as the natives are waiters.
beautiful horse children
If in the paddock the owner is surrounded by a herd of young children, don't back his horse. But if the owner is accompanied by a beautiful lady, plunge to the hilt.
dog training able
Most owners are at length able to teach themselves to obey their dog.
school men bully
Show me the man who has enjoyed his schooldays and I will show you a bully and a bore.
long helping said
When I asked my accountant if anything could get me out of this mess I am in now he thought for a long time and said, 'Yes, death would help'.
business children training
Every child should be placed on a doorstep to sell something. It's the best possible training for life.
happiness falling-in-love love-you
To fall in love with yourself is the first secret of happiness. Then if you're not a good mixer you can always fall back on your own company.
