What the fool does in the end,
the wise man does in the beginning.
-Spanish Proverb Anonymous Saying of Spanish Origin
Modesty is the citadel of beauty and virtue.
-Demades (B.C. 380-318) Athenian Orator and Poet
Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly.
-Albert Einstein
First learn the meaning of what you say, and then speak.

"At the age of eleven or thereabouts women acquire a poise and an ability to handle difficult situations which a man, if he is lucky, manages to achieve somewhere in the later seventies."
-P. G. Wodehouse (1881 - 1975), Uneasy Money
Soo true.

"I learned somethin' today. This country was founded by some of the smartest thinkers the world has ever seen. And they knew one thing: that a truly great country can go to war, and at the same time, act like it doesn't want to. You people who are for the war, you need the protesters. Because they make the country look like it's made of sane, caring individuals. And you people who are anti-war, you need these flag-wavers, because, if our whole country was made up of nothing but soft p*ssy protesters, we'd get taken down in a second. That's why the founding fathers decided we should have both. It's called 'having your cake and eating it too'." Cartman

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides with the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and good will shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon those with great vengeance and with furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know that my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

never failed to destroy the man who hated,
and this was an immutable law."
--James Baldwin
And...
"Don't sit there and play just
so frank, so straight, so candid,
so thoughtful, so gracious,
so sound, so even-handed.
Don't be so damn benign
and don't waste my f*cking time."

I'm ashamed of you people, you didn't think of this quote from Team America.
"We're dicks! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong Il is an asshole. Pussies don't like dicks because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also f*ck assholes. Assholes that just want to sh*t on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can f*ck a asshole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is they f*ck too much or f*ck when it isn't appropriate. And it takes a p*ssy to show them that. But sometimes pussies can be so full of sh*t that they become assholes themselves. Because pussies are a inch and half away from assholes. I don't know much about this crazy crazy world, but I do know this. If you don't let us f*ck this asshole we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in sh*t." -Team America
Kim Jong Il: [after Hans Blix has been fed to sharks] Inspect that, you butt-f*cking mother-f*cker! f*ck you, Hans Bwix, you c*ck f*ck!
