If you want to make God laugh tell him about your plans.

I have not made any plans for the future and my wife would kill me if I announced anything before that.

If younger people see older people who haven't planned ahead and have to rely on charity the young will be more likely to provide for the future. Today when someone plans poorly the only consequence people see is a demand for more government.

I never have plans for the future as you never know how things will turn out.

No valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.

The summer of 2002 at the Wilson birthday party I met Van Dyke again and I made plans to have dinner with him.

He is the best man who when making his plans fears and reflects on everything that can happen to him but in the moment of action is bold.
