Word To Live My Life By

A sage old man, that was real famous for some stuff, once said,

"Life is like"......something. I can't remember.
"And dreams are unorthodox." No,...wait. It wasn't unorthodox. It was another word that had a lot of syllables, though. And a whole bunch of letters in it.

And then he said,

"If you fall, then get back up."
"Don't stay on the ground because you'll get germs on you", or something like that. He might not have said germs, he might have said bugs, instead. I'm not sure. No, no, I remember now. It was, "Don't eat stuff if you dropped it on the floor, 'cause it might have germs on it." Yeah, I think that's what it was.

Anyway, it was a pretty heavy duty addage. And I try to live my life by his words on a daily basis. That old man was a genius. Maybe even a super genius.
