Confucius never said

-Never, under any circumstances, take sleeping pills and a laxative on the same night.
-You need only two tools, WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40.
If it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape.
-If he/she says that you are too good for him/her, believe that you are.

Voltaire: "those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

(i think it's Descartes), All ye who enters here abandone all hope.


(i think it's buck langley: i know he has a partner named COCOA BEAN or the like, isn't that so funny? anyway to the quote or almost quote: A man does not wander because he is looking for a rainbow. He does so because there is nothing to hold him in place.

Nietzche (75 aphorisms...):
326-" Don't touch! There are terrible people, who instead of solving a problem, bungle it and make it more difficult for all to come after. Whoever can't hit the nail on the head should, please, not try to hit the head!!!
Ni35zche...(dying for th4 "truth"): We should not let ourselves be burnt for our opinions. We are not that sure of them, but for we are not that sure of them. But for this; that we may and have changed are opinions.

nietzche: "dying for the truth" We should not allow ourselves be burnt for our opinions: we are not that sure of them. But, perhaps for this: that we may have and change our opinions.

Robin Williams, (in some movie), Politicians should be changed often, like diapers, they get shitty.

Orson Wells: "In times of deceit, telling the truth will be revolutionary."

Scott Dilbert: "Reporters are faced with the daily choice of painstakingly researching stories or reporting whatever people tell them. Both approaches pay the same." "In the future, the most important career skill will be lack of ethics."

Voltaire: "The vegetables by their death sustain the animals, and animal bodies dissolved enrich the earth, and raise again the vegetables. Tout est bien.

-Perhaps, it is not for us to know what goes on inside the heart of others, and, lacking that wisdom, we can only judge their actions... from the Buck and Coco series.

-Martin Luther-
Posted the sign and was told to recant: "I neither can nor will recant anything, since it is neither right nor safe to act against conscience. Here I stand, I can do no other."

If noone responds to your call, walk alone, WALK ALONE! My battlefield is in the minds and hearts of men.

You help people because of who you are, not because of who they are.

Everything has a course, nothing is a miracle.

Be like gumby, flexible.

(?)- a plain unlettered man, and not aquainted with anything but what is natural and common.

-G H Joyce-
Pain is the great stimulant to action. Man no less than animal is impelled to work by the sense of hunger...Man must earn his bread. (Man not contented in suffering) rise to the height of heroism...If it weren't for these trials, man would think little of further existence.

-W D Niven-
Hardship is a stern but fecund parent of invention.

-JFK-on communism-
Those that ride on the back of the tiger will soon find themselves in its mouth.

-Thomas Paine-
The time hath found us...

"I, John Brown, am quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood."

Kenji Miyazawa- "We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey."

-Abraham Flexner- "Nations have recently been led to borrow billions for war; no nation has ever borrowed largely for education. Probably, no nation is rich enough to pay for both war and civilization. We must make our choice; we cannot have both."

Bertrand Russell - "And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that He would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt His existence."
