After seeing a lot of quotes as a part of the signatures in the incoming mails in his personal and official IDs and being felt that he's over-subjected to the quotes from eminent people like Ralph Waldo Emerson as well as funny quotes from very trivial people, Mr. S, my senior colleague and a very good friend, decided to do one thing. Make a quote of his own. And he made it really simple. Also he added it to his signature.
"One who quotes others, often forgets his/her own" - Mr. S.
But he had to delete this quote from his outgoing mails, considering his seniority and his position. :( And now it's not a part of his signature. :( :(
Btw, what do you think about the above quote? ;)

Thank God he realized that he is no Ralph Waldo Emerson and withdrew his corny quote!
p.s Why are you sad about it?
Sometimes a message of one line will be accompanied with a four lines quotes. So it was a simple way intended to tell others that quoting "quotes" in mails is no big deal and to avoid scenarios as above, by making the quotes small.
And I'm not sad. Emoticons can mislead. That's a fake one. ;)
it's forgetting one's own that makes ones quote quotable.
humility isnt one of his strong points, eh?
@kochuthresiamma
you are right. this was just ,eamt to be a different thought from him although it's not that interesting. :)
And humility, in this case, I think not. ;)
