“Every Man has Assurance enough to boast of his honesty, few of their Understanding.”
Benjamin Franklin
“The wise man boasts of his goods and wares; the foolish one of his young wife.”
Russian Proverb
“Like clouds and wind without rain is a man who boasts of gifts he does not give”
Bible
“He who boasts much can do little”
African Proverb
“Our attitude toward our own culture has recently been characterized by two qualities, braggadocio and petulance. Braggadocio -- empty boasting of American power, American virtue, American know-how -- has dominated our foreign relations now for some decades. Here at home -- within the family, so to speak -- our attitude to our culture expresses a superficially different spirit, the spirit of petulance. Never before, perhaps, has a culture been so fragmented into groups, each full of its own virtue, each annoyed and irritated at the others.”
Daniel J. Boorstin
“Profit in business comes from repeat customers, customers that boast about your project or service, and that bring friends with them.”
W. Edwards Deming
“Surfing on the Internet is like sex; everyone boasts about doing more than they actually do. But in the case of the Internet, it's a lot more.”
Tom Fasulo
