Dreaming Dangerously

Everything I need to know about life I learned from Leo McGarry



There are two things in this world you don't want people to see how you make them: Laws and Sausages * The word "thing" can be a good substitute for any other word * We play the full nine innings at this level * It's ok to use a marine in full dress uniform to influence someone as long as the marine isn't supposed to be guarding something important * Give people a second chance, you never know when you might need one * "Act as if ye have faith and faith will be given to you. In other words, fake it until you make it" * It's good for co-workers to blow of steam from time to time but don't go to far * Sometimes, just the threat of hiding snakes in someone's car is good enough * We do not strut * Khaddafi is spelled with one 'h' and 2 'd's and is not a 7-letter word for anything * If an enemy rebuilds something after we blew it up, we'll blow it up again. We're getting real good at it. * "Everybody falls down holes from time to time...and sometimes you just gotta jump in." * Sometimes it "ain't nothin' but a family thing" * "Andrew Jackson had this big block of cheese..."

I meant to do this since John Spencer's passing in December but kept putting it off. With the end of West Wing, I thought that this would be the second most appropriate time. Any suggestions for additions are most welcome.

This is a very cool tribute-I might add:

*Don't worry about it.*
*Go-Do a job.*

Leo: This guy's walking down the street when he falls in a hole. The walls are so steep he can't get out. A doctor passes by and the guy shouts up, "Hey, can you help me out?" The doctor writes him a prescription, throws it down the hole, and moves on. Then a priest comes along and the guy shouts up, "Father, I'm down in this hole--can you help me out?" The priest writes out a prayer, throws it down in the hole, and moves on. Then a friend walks by. "Hey Joe, it's me--can you help me out?" And the friend jumps in the hole. Our guy says, "Are you stupid? Now we're both down here!" And the friend says, "Yeah, but I've been down here before, and I know the way out."
