Maybe I should be in advice - sorry - couldn't decide.
Anyway - I have been asked to make some cards for the Year 6 leavers at my Primary School and I want to put a suitable quotation or something in there. Anyone got any good ideas? I am still trawling google.
Cheers:confused:

    "every day above ground is a good day" - Tony Montana (Scarface).

    A man with no history is like a tree with no roots; how can it grow?
    Bob Marley

    Something like that... I hope someone can correct the first part, the ''tree with no roots; how can it grow'' part is correct though.

    Yes I guess all the 11 year olds will know who Walt Disney is.
    Perhaps I should put a quote from Michael Jackson in to be topical, incase they keep the card for future reference!!!

    did he say anything inspirational - my daughter suggested - 'Heal the world' MJ

    A teacher wrote something in my primary school leaving book and its actually preety good advice for people leaving:

    "Make new friends, but keep the old,
    one is silver, the other is gold"

    might be worth using?

    You could take a line or two out of 'Man In The Mirror' if you want an MJ quote. Like "If you want to make the world a better place/Take a look at yourself and make a change". :)

    I'm not sure if that's the sort of thing you're looking for though. :cool:
