This and its variations are probably some of the worst ideas unfortunately being widely accepted (or at least prompted) amongst coaches and athletes.

It was said to me, in alleged jest, by one of the worst managers I ever worked for but I always remember it as a statement of why he was so horrible as a leader of people.

I received all of these in an email this morning. Quality.


Sexual Truths

"There are a number of mechanical devices which increase sexual arousal, particularly in women. Chief among these is the Mercedes-Benz SL500."
Frank Sinatra


"It isn't premarital sex if you have no intention of getting married."
George Burns


"My mother never saw the irony in calling me a son-of-a-bitch."
Jack Nicholson


"Clinton lied. A man might forget where he parks or where he lives, but he never forgets oral sex, no matter how bad it is."
Barbara Bush
(Former US First Lady)


"Ah, yes, divorce, from the Latin word meaning to rip out a man's genitals through his wallet."
Robin Williams


"According to a new survey, women say they feel more comfortable undressing in front of men than they do undressing in front of other women. They say that women are too judgmental, where, of course, men are just grateful."
Robert De Niro


"There's a new medical crisis. Doctors are reporting that many men are having allergic reactions to latex condoms. They say they cause severe swelling. So what's the problem?"
Dustin Hoffman


"There's very little advice in men's magazines, because men think, 'I know what I'm doing. Just show me somebody naked!"
Jerry Seinfeld


"See, the problem is that God gives men a brain and a penis and only enough blood to run one at a time."
Robin Williams


"It's been so long since I've had sex, I've forgotten who ties up whom. "
Joan Rivers


Sex is one of the most wholesome, beautiful and natural experiences money can buy.
Steve Martin


You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman. Stuff you pay good money for later in life.
Bob Hope


"Bigamy is having one wife too many. Monogamy is the same."
Oscar Wilde

The most unreliable thing in your life is your own mind. One minute, it likes something, another minute it likes something else. So, your mind goes all over the place and you cannot rely on your own mind. Once you know this, you will laugh, you will smile.

Never mind: why should I control someone else's mind when my mind itself is not under my control? Isn't it?
