# My favorites from my own Twitter :)

1. If everyone doubts you, you're on the right track...
2. Rereading what you wrote a few days ago is boring, a few months ago inspiring, a few years ago embarrassing.
3. An ad saying "Premium websites, cheap" leaves me puzzled...
4. Creativity moves first and defeats evil!
5. The people who don't answer my emails will be sorry. And so will I, about the emails I didn't answer...
6. Four days of vacation together let you get to know a person far better than four years at university together.
7. Sometimes you do something really useful and cool in a couple of hours, and then spend the whole day trying to get anything done at all...
8. The weather is something you can always agree about; politics is something you can always argue about.
9. An ad for "WEB design" courses is set in Comic Sans...
10. Shit never comes alone.
11. Start a blog, so that I can see you. Socrates.
12. Most quarrels come out of absolutely nowhere. The solution: shut up fast and start thinking about something else.
13. A name for a social network for foodies: live2eat
14. Every morning I do my exercises: I bend down under the desk to switch on the computer...
15. Not all people are stupid, it's just that many don't use their brains...
16. People are mean because they realize how insignificant they are, and kind people are kind out of kindness :)
17. The spellchecker in Google Docs gently suggests replacing the word "email" with "Gmail"...
18. The filler phrase "get it?" tells you exactly who you're dealing with.
19. People! Work with small companies: they may soon become big ones!
20. I'm interested in your opinion, but that doesn't mean I'll act on it...
21. The economic recovery will follow an X-shaped scenario...
22. Typical asshole behavior: do a shitty job and stop picking up the phone...
23. Fancy Flash websites may be needed by designers, photographers and developers. Everyone else needs sites that are simple and easy to use.
24. When you feel like saying something clever, better keep quiet...
25. Love was invented so that people could get along together for a long time...
26. On real viral campaigns: nobody knows they're viral.
27. A personal brand is when the media write about your new project before you've written the press release.
28. In postwar Germany, cognac was the most liquid currency ;)
29. Freedom is when you wake up in the morning and realize you don't have to do anything you wouldn't want to do anyway...
30. You can follow business trends by watching the new work in the portfolios of well-known studios...
31. On a punching machine, the sign "This machine does not give change" sounds ambiguous. (In Russian, "giving change" also means hitting back.)
32. A slogan for a shoe store: a pair for every creature.
33. Why do we have limited liability companies and not extended liability companies?

P.S. Actually, there's something rather tacky about all this, publishing favorites from your own posts.
