Universal Truths from Moms - Words to Live By

I was thinking about "MOM expressions" that have become part of our everyday lives.  They are so true regardless of the generation, culture, background, religion, financial status, or political affliations.

1. " Treat people as you would like them to treat you." (Golden Rule - I think mothers started some time ago)

2. "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we first start out to deceive".  - source unknown - probably a Mom a few centuries ago.  Amazing how this is so VERY TRUE today.

3. "You can fool all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool Mom". - source: Captain Penny (Ron Penfound) but he probably got it from his MOM.

4. "If you have nothing nice to say about some one, then do not say anything" (obviously from a very political correct MOM that was ahead of her time)

Do you have any "MOM Expresssions" you would like to share with us?
