The Best Speech You’ll Ever Regret

I saw the following at Waiting For The Karma Truck as part of a post and REALLY LIKED IT and wanted to share it with you. If you haven’t checked out that site I recommend that you do.

“Speak when you are angry and you’ll make the best speech you’ll ever regret.” –Dr. Laurence J. Peter

I sometimes like to add comments to a quote but this one is so eloquent and powerful in its simplicity that whatever I tried to add to it would most likely take away from it.

    I saw the same thing and yes I so agree unless of course you are not just angry but pissed as a nit too then you may not remember the speech and thus you will not regret it………….such a shame but hell if you made an ass out of yourself I am sure someone will tell you what you said and will bring it up many times just to make sure you never forget again…………….
