`He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else'
Benjamin Franklin
Two days ago I wrote about excuses and I liked the quotation. As I was going through the quotes page, I came across several interesting quotes on excuses. I have no excuse not to give them!
`There aren't nearly enough crutches in the world for all the lame excuses'
Marcus Stroup
`Difficulty is the excuse history never accepts'
Edward R. Murrow
`Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses'
George Washington Carver
`We are all manufacturers. Making good, making trouble, or making excuses'
H.V. Adolt
`People with integrity do what they say they are going to do. Others have excuses'
Laura Schlessinger
`For many people, an excuse is better than an achievement because an achievement, no matter how great, leaves you having to prove yourself again in the future; but an excuse can last for life'
Eric Hoffer
`Several excuses are always less convincing than one'
Aldous Huxley
`The trick is not how much pain you feel but how much joy you feel. Any idiot can feel pain. Life is full of excuses to feel pain, excuses not to live; excuses, excuses, excuses.'
Erica Jong
It is easier to find an excuse than to find a reason'
Doug Brown
`I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took an excuse'
Florence Nightingale
