Motto's

[Pat]

I was in the Post Office today and noticed, really noticed, the unofficial motto of the US Postal Service and thought that is a cool motto, kinda gets to ya.

"Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these appointed couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds".

I would be proud to belong to an outfit with that motto.

In Strategic Air Command of the 1950's thru the early 1990's their motto was "peace is our profession, (war is our hobby)". A little soft for me.

Our car's motto is, Mercury Marauder "Big, Powerful and Aggressive for someone who wants it all". I like it.

Any favorite motto's members can share?

I was always more familiar with the opposite of that:

"If momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy."

Even though the double negative is contrary, it think it has the right ring to it.
