“You can browbeat us all you want (about being fat), but it won’t work. In fact, it might even hurt … We know we’re fat.”

“Beware the prophet seeking profit.”

– Dennis Miller

Trust, but verify.

– Former U.S. President Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan used the phrase in public, but he was not the first person known to use it. When Reagan used this phrase, he was usually discussing relations with the Soviet Union and he almost always presented it as a translation of the Russian proverb “doveryai, no proveryai”

The phrase is commonly used by TV actor David Caruso’s character Horatio Caine in CSI: Miami.

WHEN THINGS GO WRONG AS THEY SOMETIMES WILL,
WHEN THE ROAD YOU’RE TRUDGING SEEMS ALL UPHILL,
WHEN THE FUNDS ARE LOW, AND THE DEBTS ARE HIGH,
AND YOU WANT TO SMILE, BUT YOU HAVE TO SIGH,
WHEN CARE IS PRESSING YOU DOWN A BIT,
REST IF YOU MUST, BUT DON’T YOU QUIT.
