You can lead a horse to water...but you're a fucking moron if you think you can get him to drive you to the clearance sale at Macy's.

In answer to the OP ; The pleasure of satisfying a savage instinct, undomesticated by the ego, is uncomparably more intense than the one of satisfying a tamed instinct. The reason is becoming the enemy that prevents us from a lot of possibilities of pleasure (Sigmund Freud)

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. There is no substitute for large caliber weapons. Gun control means hitting what you aim at.

Nothing in this world worth having ever comes easy. Don't take life to seriously, no one gets out alive anyways.

"3 monkeys sittin' under a coconut tree Discussing things as they are set to be Said one to the others Now listen you two There's a strange rumor that can't be true They say man was descended from our noble race But the very idea is a big disgrace No monkey ever deserted his wife Or her baby and ruined their lives YEAH, the monkey's drift is mine." Damian Marley "Until the philosophy which hold one race Superior and another inferior Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned That until there are no longer first class And second class citizens of any nation Until the colour of a man's skin Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes That until the basic human rights are equally Guaranteed to all, without regard to race Dis a war" Bob Marley "Even psychopaths have emotions, then again, maybe not." Richard Ramirez "We the people means everyone, regardless of race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, sexual identity, or social class." "Drag is when a man wears everything a lesbian won't" Unknown My manner of thinking, so you say, cannot be approved. Do you suppose I care? A poor fool indeed is he who adopts a manner of thinking for others!

Can't work today, still queer." ~Robin Tyler "All parents should be aware that when they mock or curse gay people, they may be mocking or cursing their own child." - Anna Quindlen "Never fight with an idiot in public, people watching may not be able to tell the differance" "If you invited Me I thought you would know it was Me coming."

One is inside then outside what one has been inside One feels empty because there is nothing inside oneself One tries to get inside oneself that inside of the outside that one was once inside once one tries to get oneself inside what one is outside: to eat and to be eaten to have the outside inside and to be inside the outside But this is not enough. One is trying to get the inside of what one is outside inside, and to get inside the outside. But one does not get inside the outside by getting the outside inside for; although one is full inside of the inside of the outside one is on the outside of one’s own inside and by getting inside the outside one remains empty because while one is on the inside even the inside of the outside is outside and inside oneself there is still nothing There has never been anything else and there never will be I am doing it the it I am doing is the I that is doing it the I that is doing it is the it I am doing it is doing the I that am doing it I am being done by the it I am doing it is doing it One is afraid of the self that is afraid of the self that is afraid of the self that is afraid One may perhaps speak of reflections Although innumerable beings have been led to Nirvana no being has been led to Nirvana Before one goes through the gate one may not be aware there is a gate one may think there is a gate to go through and look a long time for it without finding it one may find it and it may not open If it opens one may be through it As one goes through it one sees that the gate one went through was the self that went through it no one went through a gate there was no gate to go through no one ever found a gate no one ever realized there was never a gate By those who know the discourse on dharmas as like unto a raft dharmas should be forsaken, still more so no-dharmas Hearing that dharmas, and still more so, no-dharmas should be forsaken some are of the opinion that there is no gate that is their opinion there is no way of knowing except to go through it Knots by R.D.Laing Anything by Jung or Einstein or Da Vinci

What you always have to do is have faith in yourself, rather than let other people's opinions form your own. GuidingLight

"Bodies starved beyond a certain point will die [even if fed]". -Some historical video on Stalingrad. There are some things that get stuck in peoples' heads fora long time. This is one of mine. I wouldn't call it a "favorite quote" per say, but.. well, it's impacted me pretty heavily.

I'm sorry, I'm an airplane nut- "One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Neil Armstrong, July 10, 1969 One of my favorites that comes to mind is from Quentin Crisp (and I may be paraphrasing)- There is no situation, no matter how dreadful or heartrending, that cannot be made more so by the arrival of a policeman. Darcy My favorite quip to Churchill's "We shall fight them on the beaches" speech was- "Yes, well how about fighting them in Germany?" (I think it was Mad magazine.) Or on his post Battle of Britain speech- "Never in the field of human conquest was so much owed by so many to so few." - Oh, he must be talking about our back pay. Piece of Cake, Derek Robinson. Sam

a few of my favourites: I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book. Groucho Marx All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope. Sir Winston Churchill Blow, blow, thou winter wind Thou art not so unkind, As man's ingratitude. William Shakespeare When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always. Mahatma Gandhi And lastly: The Tooth Fairy teaches kids to sell body parts for money!
