: : : : : what does this mean..."if you aim at nothing, you will hit it"? : : : : If you don't strive or try for a goal, you'll achieve nothing. : : : A related saying that I've heard is "He aimed low and missed", meaning that he set himself a goal that was much too easy and failed to achieve even that low standard. Pamela : : Douglas Adams' said that anyone can fly. Just throw yourself at the ground and miss. : Are you all on to Despair.com? In the United States, you can't go into an office without being faced with a motivational poster. These are demotivational posters and I just love them. http://despair.com/viewall.html Example: : DELUSION -- There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality. Mind you, there's nothing as funny as the real motivational posters - one that used to hang in an exworkplace of mine was "For every action there is a purpose". Pamela
