Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss. — © Robert A. Heinlein
Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss.
Those who make their living by collecting taxes cause the people to starve; when the people starve, the tax collectors, having no one to tax, starve also
I think the worst thing you could do is not shoot the shot. When you shoot you got two options: It can go in or you can miss, and even in the miss you might learn.
When you think shoot, shoot, shoot you miss open passes.
Congress is supposed to fund the IRS, and it has been steadily reducing the number of auditors and tax collectors the IRS has at the very time that the tax system has become vastly more complicated. And of course America continues to grow, so there's an increasing number of tax returns coming in. The IRS responds by doing exactly what Congress expects of them. That shouldn't surprise anyone. All bureaucracies do what they are told.
Even if I do miss a shot, I'm going to be comfortable to get back up there and shoot the same shot again. Make or miss, I'm not going to be frustrated but move on to the next play.
My body is weird. I can't drink strong drinks. I can't even drink cough medicine - I used to cry when my mom forced me. I don't drink alcohol.
Republicans will not be reduced to being the tax collectors for the Obama economy.
Make or miss, you still have to shoot the same shot with confidence.
Excuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong cause I don't need to think She broke my heart, my grace is gone One more drink and I'll move on.
Shoot for the stars but if you happen to miss shoot for the moon instead.
You are right to be wary. There is much bullshit. Be wary of me too, because I may be wrong. Make up your own mind after you evaluate all the evidence and the logic.
Shoot for the moon. If you miss, shoot again.
It's great to be able to buy normal-sized jeans and watching the pounds fall off, but I do miss drink and I do miss cheese!
Christ surrounded himself with beggars, prostitutes, tax-collectors and fishermen. ... what he meant by this was that the divine spark is in every soul and is never extinguished.
I shall clasp my hands together and bow to the corners of the world. May your villages remain ignorant of tax collectors, and may your sons be many and ugly and strong and willing workers, and may your daughters be few and beautiful and excellent providers of love gifts from eminent families that live very far away, and may your lives be blessed by the beauty that has touched mine. Farewell.
Artists need a lot of collectors, all kinds of collectors, buying their art.
