The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the Prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this. ~Albert Einstein

You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline -- it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. ~ Frank Zappa

~ People tend to focus on the here and now. The problem is that, once global warming is something that most people can feel in the course of their daily lives, it will be too late to prevent much larger, potentially catastrophic changes ~ Elizabeth Kolbert

The path of the righteous man

is beset on all sides

by the inequities of the selfish

and the tyranny of evil men!

Blessed is he

who in the name of charity and goodwill

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 thee

with great vengeance and furious anger

those who attempt to poison or destroy my brothers

And you will my name is LORD

when I lay my vengeance upon you!

-Jules Winfield, Pulp Fiction 1994

“Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you” ~ Kurt Cobain

“I am a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy.” ~ J. D. Salinger

You die as you've lived. If you were paranoid in life, you'll probably be paranoid when you're dying.” ~ Dr. James Cimino quotes

“Biographical history, as taught in our public schools, is still largely a history of boneheads: ridiculous kings and queens, paranoid political leaders, compulsive voyagers, ignorant generals - the flotsam and jetsam of historical currents. The men who radically altered history, the great scientists and mathematicians, are seldom mentioned, if at all.” ~ santiz Martin Gardner

“Whereas the well-functioning executive encourages the best in brains and skills, the one who is paranoid or even less morbidly insecure must have inadequates about him, men who will take punishment.” ~ Dr. Francis J. Braceland

“They tend to be suspicious, bristly, paranoid-type people with huge egos they push around like some elephantiasis victim with his distended testicles in a wheelbarrow terrified no doubt that some skulking ingrate of a clone student will sneak into his very brain and steal his genius work.” ~ William S. Burroughs quotes

“If the national mental illness of the United States is megalomania, that of Canada is paranoid schizophrenia.” ~ Margaret Atwood

“In fact, they recapitulate the story of Christianity word for word, like the inevitable course of some unsightly disease: criminal ignorance, brutish stupidity, self-righteous bigotry, paranoid fear of outsiders. For the cultist, psychiatrists, the media, Government agencies have become Satan incarnate. Like the fundamental Christians, they have to be right.” ~ William S. Burroughs



Hey TJ, was that an uncanny sense of knowing your hidden motivations? :D

Laugh at yourself and at life. Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity, but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain, cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective that seemingly terrible defeat and worry with laughter at your predicaments, thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously. ~ Og Mandino

Each day is a special gift from God, and while life may not always be fair, you must never allow the pains, hurdles, and handicaps of the moment to poison your attitude and plans for yourself and your future. You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity, and the sour sound of whining will certainly frighten away any opportunity for success. Never again. There is a better way. ~ Og Mandino

The whining schoolboy, with his satchel

And shining morning face, creeping like snail

Unwillingly to school. ~ William Shakespeare

Firmness in enduring and exertion is a character I always wish to possess. I have always despised the whining yelp of complaint and cowardly resolve. ~ Robert Burns

The tendency to whining and complaining may be taken as the surest sign symptom of little souls and inferior intellects.~ Lord Jeffrey



Think that last one has been posted a time or 2 but it's so good it's worth repeating.. :rolleyes:

Whoever is spared personal pain must feel himself called to help in diminishing the pain of others. We must all carry our share of the misery which lies upon the world. ~ Albert Schweitzer

The white man's happiness cannot be purchased by the black man's misery. ~ Frederick Douglass

Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.~ Winston Churchill

Morality becomes hypocrisy if it means accepting mothers suffering or dying in connection with unwanted pregnancies and illegal abortions - and unwanted children living in misery ~ Unknown

Pride is seldom delicate, it will please itself with very mean advantages; and envy feels not its own happiness, but when it may be compared with the misery of others. ~ Samuel Johnson

The man who loves his country prefers its liberty to all other considerations, well knowing that without liberty life is a misery. ~ Andrew Hamilton

The miser, starving his brother's body, starves also his own soul, and at death shall creep out of his great estate of injustice, poor and naked and miserable. ~ Theodore Parker

The happiness and misery of men depend no less on temper than fortune. ~ Fran?ois de la Rochefoucauld

So many able writers have shown that the unjust institutions which work so much misery and suffering to the masses have their root in governments, and owe their whole existence to the power derived from government we cannot help but believe that were every law, every title deed, every court, and every police officer or soldier abolished tomorrow with one sweep, we would be better off than now. ~ lunaleelee Lucy Parsons

In seperateness lies the world's great misery, in compassion lies the world's true strength. ~ Buddha

Misery acquaints a man with strange bed-fellows. ~ William Shakespeare
