"I wish them both the greatest of success."
-Menachem Begin, Prime Minister of Israel, about the war between Iran and Iraq starting. (Don't taze me ISD bro, not politics. I thought it applies to TEST vs. Goon, CODE. vs. anti-gankers, choose any other two groups opposed to each other, etc.) Smile

Lady Astor, after arguing with Winston Churchill (and presumably losing) told him "Sir, if you were my husband, I would poison you"

He replied "Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it."

"Just remember later that I warned against any change to jump ranges or fatigue. You earned whats coming."

We know no document is perfect, but when we amend the Constitution, it would be to expand rights, not to take away rights from decent, loyal Americans. This great Constitution of ours should never be used to make a group of Americans permanent second-class citizens.

'No matter how beautiful she is, somebody somewhere is sick of her sh*t.' -Graffiti in the men's room at the Luckenbach, Texas post office-bar

(I suppose if you changed 'beautiful' to 'handsome' and made the pronouns masculine, it would also be profound).

That was a great movie, btw. We had to read the play and watch the movie in high school English class. One of the very few smart things I remember my high school doing.
