10 Funny Life Quotes That Are Surprisingly Profound

What that means is that these will stick with you, and
you’re going to gain great value from them. From great authors, to leaders, to
amazing public speakers, these quotes are going to make you chuckle and nod in
agreement.
When I draw inspiration from quotes, I never say anything
along the lines of “The great Ernest Hemingway once said…” Instead, I put in my
own words what he said and show them what I truly believe by connecting it to
our current situation as well as my own life experiences. I think that is more
powerful than quoting things word for word.
Here are 10 funny life quotes that don’t need an explanation
because they can be interpreted in many ways, and I think a lot of them explain
themselves.
1. “Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the
universe and he’ll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and
he’ll have to touch it to be sure.” –Murphy’s Law
2. “Anything you lose automatically doubles in value.”
-Mignon McLaughlin
3. “Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is
not putting it in a fruit salad.” -Brian Gerald O’Driscoll
4. “The odds of going to the store for a loaf of bread
and coming out with only a loaf of bread are three billion to one.” -Erma
Bombeck
5. “When I die, I want to die like my grandfather, who
died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his
car.” -Will Rogers
6. “Nothing sucks more than that moment during an
argument when you realize you’re wrong.” -Unknown
7. “People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well,
neither does bathing — that’s why we recommend it daily.” -Zig Ziglar
8. “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than
to speak and remove all doubt.” -Abraham Lincoln
9. “Patience is something you admire in the driver behind
you, but not in one ahead.” -Bill McGlashen
10. ”Children: You spend the first 2 years of their life
teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 16 telling them to sit
down and shut-up.” -Unknown
Hopefully reading these quotes allowed you to create
some different perspectives. Remember, quotes aren’t about remembering them
word for word and then repeating them for all to hear. Life quotes, even if
funny, are meant to be internalized, and the messages inside of them are the
ones worth spreading.
