41. Elevate yourself by applying upward momentum to the grasping apparati of your own footwear.
Pull yourself up by your bootlaces
42. Without perambulating a minimum of 5,280 feet in the native American footwear belonging to another hominid, you are incapable of mentally grasping the odiferousness.
Walk a mile in another man's shoes and you'll catch his athletes foot.
43. Neither victory nor defeat are of great importance, but rather the conditions under which the endeavor was conducted.
Not if you win or lose, but how you play the game
44. Whatever benefits the large female waterfowl, also benefits her male counterpart.
If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander
45. If unable to flagellate others successfully, ally yourself with them.
If you can't beat them, join them
46. It is not possible to transform a female swine's otic appendage into a container made from caterpillar-extruded monofilament.
You can't make a silk purse out of sow's ear
47. Although it is possible to guide an equestrian animal to fluid refreshment, there are no means to coerce it to partake.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can make him drink
48. A small quantity of sucrose ameliorates ingestion of pharmaceuticals.
Just spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down (Julie Andrew's version)
49. Expired piscines and houseguests share the property of olfactory unpleasantness after 72 hours.
Spelled wrong, no clue
50. Despite its extreme abased simplicity, no other abode compares favorably to one's domicile.
There is no place like Home (as said by Judy Garland)
