Told me by a foreign student 5 minutes ago:
"You are like the American CIA, (Erasmus), naive and innocent." Still shaking my head over that one. This was his explanation to me about why I didn't buy all his wild conspiracy theories 'bout the assasination of John Lennon. (The Japanese secret service did it in revenge 'cause J.L. dissed Yoko.)

Funny:
"Have you noticed how much they look like orchids? Lovely!" Robert Anson Heinlein Noble: "It is the invariable habit of bureaucracies, at all times and everywhere, to assume ... that every citizen is a criminal. Their one apparent purpose, pursued with a relentless and furious diligence, is to convert the assumption into a fact. They hunt endlessly for proofs, and, when proofs are lacking, for mere suspicions. The moment they become aware of a definite citizen, John Doe, seeking what is his right under the law, they begin searching feverishly for an excuse for withholding it from him." - H.L. Mencken |
|
And here's one I haven't seen too many places:
"The ruling class doesn't care about public safety. Having made it very difficult for States and localities to police themselves, having left ordinary citizens with no choice but to protect themselves as best they can, they now try to take our guns away. In fact they blame us and our guns for crime. This is so wrong that it cannot be an honest mistake." - former U.S. Sen. Malcolm Wallop (R-Wy.) |
|
"I drank what?" -Socrates
"Oy, shee-it!" - Gene Wilder from "The Cisco Kid" "Somebody threw-out a perfectly good white boy" -Men at Work Anybody remember some lines from Kelly's Heros? Guess its time to pull out the DVD. |

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made
to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters." Daniel Webster |

"I never let my schooling interfere with my education." --Mark Twain
"Goddamn it, you'll never get the Purple Heart hiding in a foxhole!

never let the probability of success determine your actions.
although i'm sure someone has said something to the same effect (and probably much more eloquently than i), i am claiming this version as mine because i'm tired of hearing "that's just the way it is" (when i question injustices) and "you can't change anything, so why bother?" when i take a little action to make some much needed changes. |

That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your unit." - from PS Magazine (the Army's magazine of preventive maintenance) "How fast should I drive?" "Just go with traffic." "Well, what if I get nailed from the rear?" "...More power to you!" - Heather & George "Natives who beat drums to drive off evil spirits are objects of scorn to smart Americans who blow horns to break up traffic jams." - Mary Ellen Kelly "The dumber people think you are, the more surprised they're going to be when you kill them." - William Clayton "If elected, my first act will be to kill the whole lot of you and burn your town to cinders." - Rafi Berkson "'THE PENIS!

Chapman "That's a six-four-three play if you're scoring at home, or even if you're not getting any." - Keith Obermann, ESPN Sportscenter "The big drama of watching the Dream Team is wondering when they will start dunking the ball backward, with 360-degree spins and reverse helicopter jams.

Give me all the money or I will fling an enormous rock at your head.] -Kirk Andrews Vague references to a bus trip, drinking, and puking do *not* make for a unique context in which I can figure out what you're talking about. It's like saying, "You remember that day you were breathing?" or "Remember that time you banged that chick?". It just doesn't distinguish itself from the hundreds of such occasions. -George Weilacher "But getting drunk, and picking up bar ladies, and doing metaphysics are a part of life." - R. M.

Maybe then you'll build up the thick skin you'll need to make it through life without becoming a authoritarian bastard who won't let me say anything which might offend somebody somewhere. -Anthony Campillo "This signature project was my last, best hope to seem eloquent. It failed. But in the year of Decency In Communications Act, it became something greater. My last, best hope for satire. The year is 1996. The Place: Babbling On Pine." - Kyle N. Foster (.sig) "I can now march 25 and 30 miles a day, survive on short rations of nothing but hardtack, rancid bacon, and cold water, sleep in the woods in the cold and heavy dew under nothing but an overcoat, and enjoy myself capitally." - Union soldier, during training |
