My grandpa was born and raised near the Canadian Rockies. He used to tell stories of the harsh winters. He said it was common for houses to be lifted off their foundations by the icicles that grew larger with the cold weather. He said he had some pictures of houses sitting a few feet off the ground ... Unfortunately, he couldn't find them before he passed away. I bet that was a neat sight.

From my dad:
Education is the most important thing you can have, nobody can take it from you.
Knowledge is power.
if you work hard, people will always have a job for you. I cant tell you how true I have found this to be!
Where there is a will, there is a way!(dad grew up in a refugee camp and found ways to succeed. He is my inspiration!)
And one that really sticks out now that my parents are getting older. "its important that you carry yourself in a respectful manner because it reflects on us, and how we raised you!."
I am extremely lucky to have the parents I have, any other ones probably would have killed me by now!
Dad always said, "stop yer bawlin' or I'll give you something to bawl about!"
Wish I had $1 for every time I heard that
Another one of my dad's favorite threats
"They are going to have to take me and you to the hospital in order to get my foot out of your a**"
The cool thing about my dad was he was mostly just threats When he felt it necessary to take action he rarely said anything
