Thoughts and ideas that hold forever true..........

[JollySipper]

There's a lot of eternal truths and ideas that are learned throughout your lifetime. One major one for me is this: If you're forcing something, you're doing it wrong........ That goes for everything, from mechanical work to building models, to relationships with other people.

What would some of these ideas be to you guys?

There's no substitute for cubic inches.

There's no such thing as 'too much power'. You can always throttle back.

Size matters.

Bigger isn't always better. 

It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
