Orson Welles said:
"I hate television. I hate it as much as I hate peanuts. But I can't stop eating peanuts."


"In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed - they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love and five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!"

David Attenborough said:
"If we disappeared overnight, the world would probably be better off."


"I often get letters, quite frequently, from people who say how they like the programmes a lot, but I never give credit to the almighty power that created nature, to which I reply and say, "Well, it's funny that the people, when they say that this is evidence of the almighty, always quote beautiful things, they always quote orchids and hummingbirds and butterflies and roses." But I always have to think too of a little boy sitting on the banks of a river in west Africa who has a worm boring through his eyeball, turning him blind before he's five years old, and I reply and say, "Well presumably the god you speak about created the worm as well," and now, I find that baffling to credit a merciful god with that action, and therefore it seems to me safer to show things that I know to be truth, truthful and factual, and allow people to make up their own minds about the moralities of this thing, or indeed the theology of this thing."

No matter what anyone may say about making the rich and the corporations pay taxes, in the end they come out of the people who toil.
Calvin Coolidge

We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
Sir Winston Churchill

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
William Boetcker

The more one considers the matter, the clearer it becomes that redistribution is in effect far less a redistribution of free income from the richer to the poorer, as we imagined, than a redistribution of power from the individual to the State.
Bertrand de Jouvenel

To tax the community for the advantage of a class is not protection, it is plunder.
Benjamin Disraeli

Forced to choose, the poor, like the rich, love money more than political liberty; and the only political freedom capable of enduring is one that is so pruned as to keep the rich from denuding the poor by ability or subtlety and the poor from robbing the rich by violence or votes.
Will Durant

a couple of quotes by Stephen King:

Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.


(my personal favorite) I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and Fries.

From the Sharpe TV Series:
"You're swaying sir!"
"Invariably sir."


"Incoming Fire has the right of way."

"It's dangerous to be right when the government is wrong."

"Question authority and the authorities will question you."

"I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it." - Voltaire

"I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man. [facing his assassin]" - Ernesto "Che" Guevara

Some quotes from sources I cannae remember:

A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.

Life is like a sewer... what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.

Silence is one of the most effective forms of communication.

May the curse of Mary Malone and her nine blind illegitimate children chase you so far over the hills of Damnation that the Lord himself can't find you with a telescope.

The big thieves hang the little ones.

The church is near but the road is icy; the bar is far away but I'll walk carefully.

Sparrow: "Gentlemen. What do keys do?"
Deck hand: "Keys... unlock... things?"
Gibbs: "And whatever it is this key unlocks, inside there's something valuable. So we're setting out to find whatever it is this key unlocks!"
Sparrow: "No. If we don't have the key, we can't open whatever it is we don't have that it unlocks. So what purpose would be served in finding whatever need be unlocked which we don't have without first having found the key what unlocks it."
Gibbs: "So- we're going after this key?"
Sparrow: "You're not making any sense at'all."
Yay Pirates of the Carribbean 3.
