A couple funny ones I heard my dad use a few times...

He said, "You make a better door than a window" when we blocked his view of the TV set. 

When someone did something stupid he'd say,

"He's sharp as a tack with a head on both ends".
That one was not directed at us.

Good advice, takes me more than twice to learn the lesson.

My father used to say, along with many others that now I can't seem to remember, the following:

Don't assume anything, it'll make an A** out of u and me.  I have remembered that many times and it has served me well.
