It's better to ask a stupid question than make a stupid mistake.

For what it is worth

"Better to remain silent and be thought stupid, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt"

"Ah, arrogance and stupidity all in the same package. How efficient of you!"

First job out of school and my boss told me that on the first day. I have never forgotten it, and have told every employee I have had the same thing on their first day.

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
This was quoted earlier, it is from George Orwell.
"Better to remain silent and be thought stupid, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt"
This was quoted earlier, it is from Abraham Lincoln.

'If you gonna be stupid, you'd better be tough!' John Wayne
'I'll help you down the trail and proud to' Rooster Cogburn

'Will you give us the road rooster?' Ned Pepper
'Fill your hand you son of a bitch!'

My old (Tank) Squadron Commander, 'every soldier is entitled to his opinion, Moriarty, but he is not entitled to express it.'

Old soldier to unshaven soldier ' Stand a little closer to the razor tomorrow morning.'
navy version of the above. 'When you shave next, lean into it son.'

Sargeant Major to soldier with long hair(still incredibly short). 'Am I hurting you son?' 'No Sir!' 'Well i fucking should be, I'm standing on your hair!!!!'

Advice to all soldiers 'keep your ears, eyes and bowels open and your mouth shut.'

My dad:
About lazy people 'he thinks Manual Labour is a Mexican Bandit!'

about worthless people 'Not worth the sweat of a water bag.'

about people he didn't like 'I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.'

about tight people 'He wouldn't give you the steam off his piss on a cold morning.'

drunk 'full as a goog/boot/bubble in a pickle bottle'

ugly as a hat full of broken bisquits

'wouldn't wish it on a Jap on Anzac Day'

When he was admonishing me about spending money and I foolishly said 'its made round to go round, he replied, its made flat to stack,' geez, he had an answer for everything!

My grandad, a fine tradesman, 'don't use a one inch bolt when a two inch bolt will do.

Unknown, but I have passed this on to staff who are getting themselves into trouble 'The first rule of holes, Stop digging!!'

My sayings when advising staff:

'Don't answer questions that haven't been asked'

'No good will come from this.'

'Don't do anything you wouldn't be proud to have your children see.'
