Two for me:

  1. The moment you feel tipsy it’s time to ease down. You have a stomach full of booze that’s going to make you more drunk even if you stop immediately.

  2. If you think people are good, you’re probably right and if you think people are bad, you’re probably right.

People are good IMO.

    A smart person learns from their mistakes, but a truly wise person learns from other people’s mistakes.

      I’ve given a talk more than once titled “the mistakes I’ve made so you don’t have to”.

      I never reveal the title in advance and it always gets a giggle but invariably grabs attention.
