"40 quotes about life (for a pessimist)"

That's the title of a photo essay in the Telegraph.  Some of the quotes are dark and gloomy, but others are amusing - my preference, of course.  They include:

• "Always borrow money from a pessimist, he won't expect it back" - Oscar Wilde
• "If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to" - Dorothy Parker
• "Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that" - George Carlin
• "Trust your husband, adore your husband, and get as much as you can in your own name" - Joan Rivers

There are many more at the link.  Entertaining and frequently funny.
