The following is a list of sayings that might be at least be humorous and have a little common sense in them:
1. He that governs least, governs best.
2. He that heals least, heals best. i. e. do not do open heart surgery when an aspirin will suffice.
3.Common sense(which is extremely rare) will solve all problems. Maybe not the way we would like it to, but none the less practical.
4. You can fool all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of time but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time except in this era of mass hysteria and delusion by a deranged media and guided by unprincipled politicians and the wealthy and the medical, pharmaceutical complex.
5. When you are surrounded and bombarded by media, politicians, family and friends in order to make a decision, you can only pray that you have made the correct decision.
