Let these funny Appearances Quotes from my large collection of funny quotes about life add a little humor to your day.

appearances than from reality. All
men have eyes, but few have
the gift of penetration.

Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact.

by presenting that natural appearance as its picture.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me is more important than facts.
It is more important than the past, than education, than money,
than circumstances, than failures, than success,
than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, gift, or skill.
It will make or break a company ... a church ... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day
regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past ...
we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the string we have,
and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me
and 90 percent how I react to it.
And so it is with you ...
we are in charge of our attitudes.
- Charles Swindoll
Every fact is related on one side to sensation,

to find the other: given the upper, to find the under side.
