An elderly Jewish woman was waiting at the bus stop when a young man with a beard passed by. She stopped and asked him, "Du redst Yiddish?" (Do you speak Yiddish?) "Ye, ich reid Yiddish" (Yes, I speak it), he answered. "Gut, vat time is it?"
“To say the right thing at the right time, keep still most of the time.” John W. Roper Those who get in trouble most often are those cannot seem to keep still, remain silent. Life teaches many lessons. Among the best lessons of life is one my father taught me at an early age was, “If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing.” The contributions we make to life via our mouth are many and varied. Most of the time, I reckon, they are not contributions at all, but things that diminish the richness of life.
