Quotes I like
- "My vengeance must be swift and inflexible, much like a lead pipe or a dead hummingbird. Clearly I owe Tetronian an explanation, or possibly an air strike. In the end I opted for an explanation, which is probably for the best when you consider that I do not really have any air strikes." - Mei II
- "Never underestimate the power of human stupidity." - Robert Heinlein (possibly my favorite quote)
- "The capacity of the human mind for swallowing nonsense and spewing it forth in violent and repressive action has never yet been plumbed." - Robert Heinlein (nail on the head, this)
- “The atom bombs are piling up in the factories, the police are prowling through the cities, the lies are streaming from the loudspeakers, but the earth is still going round the sun.” - George Orwell (a reminder to paranoid people)
- "I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids." - Dr. Strangelove (a classic)
- "Man is not a rational animal, he is a rationalizing animal." - Robert Heinlein (truer words have never been said)
- "A witty saying proves nothing." - Voltaire (heh heh)
