It has to be Douglas Adams as far as I am concerned:

In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.
The answer to life, the universe and everything is forty-two.

But more seriously, I think it's those eternal lines from Frost's poem (sorry if this post is getting too cliche):

The woods are tempting, dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep.

[Forget the punctuation, sorry.]

I could go on forever, so I think I will stop here.

[No, that's not a quote, I meant that ]

4. Client Correspondence - Keeping Unflattering Words Off The Record

   (0)

   Email messages that contain seemingly harmless gossip or criticism can be passed around and hauled
   out later, and used to build a case against the corporation that engaged the people who sent them.
   When you are about to send a message that spreads a rumor, including comments that belittle a
   client, or passes on a fact that could be damaging to a client's reputation, think again. In
   view of what could be dragged out of the darkness into the harsh light of the courtroom, a whispered
   conversation with the co-worker you intended to send the email to would be a safer op....

7. Compare Char's In Words

   (4)

   I've got an exercise given out by my tutor and I'm basically stumped. Part of it is to
   compare words then work out the shortest number of characters that is required to uniquely identify
   them. For example.. cat dog horse Out of this group of only the first letters can be used c, d, h
   where as other groups like ant and antelope would require ant, ante. Given this problem I've
   been trying to figure out how to do this and so far I'm manage to split each word into char
   arrays but when I try to compare them with other copies for a match I get two errors, Ei....

21. "i Love You"

    Three words we say too often? (11)

    I just read in another thread (about how to say "I love you" in other languages than english) that
    someone in here doesn't say it because it "gets tossed around too often". I think it is not
    being said (or at least thought) often enough. Why? I'll try to explain: At least among many
    people I know, saying "I love you" implies "I want sexual contact with you". If someone says "I love
    you" to gain sexual contact, I agree with those who claim that these three words are being tossed
    around too much - if you want sex without any commitments, why don't you say so?....
