Quotations[edit]
Men of most renowned virtue have sometimes by transgressing most truly kept the law.
~John Milton, Tetrachordon
Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of man, that state is obsolete.
~Rod Serling, The Obsolete Man
There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.
~ Joseph Brodsky
The history of science shows that a paradigm, once it has achieved the status of acceptance and regardless of its failures, is declared invalid only when a new paradigm is available to replace it. Nevertheless, in order to make progress in science, it is necessary to clear the decks, so to speak, of failed paradigms. This must be done even if this leaves the decks entirely clear and no paradigms survive.
~Hubert Yockey
There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit.
~Ronald Reagan, First Inaugural Address
Cynics regarded everybody as equally corrupt... Idealists regarded everybody as equally corrupt, except themselves.
~ Robert Anton Wilson
When idealism meets reality, it's rarely reality that backs down.
~ Michael Liberty
We always look for doctors, but sometimes we're lucky to find a frosh.
~ Zampanò, House of Leaves
Communicating badly and then acting smug when you're misunderstood is not cleverness.
~Randall Munroe
Everything about Battlefield Earth sucks. Everything. The over-the-top music, the unbelievable sets, the terrible dialogue, the hammy acting, the lousy special effects, the beginning, the middle and especially the end. God above, it's bad. Sweet baby Jesus, it's bad. By all that is holy and sacred on the Earth, this is a bad, bad, bad film.
~Movie critic Jonathan Ross on Battlefield Earth
What happened? Were you bit? Did you eat their brownies? Did you eat their brownies?!
~Eric Cartman, South Park
Damn you and your proof!
~The Gord
When you start accusing everyone of being in on a conspiracy, you shouldn't be surprised if they decide to confirm your paranoia by banding together against you.
~khaosworks
It sometimes helps to remember that people are just primates, with a recent and somewhat untested upgrade.
~ Lawrence Gonzales
Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting a bull not to attack you because you're a vegetarian.
~ Dennis Wholey
The problem with Wikipedia is that it only works in practice. In theory, it can never work.
~Unknown
Is there any end to the number of problems I can solve just by beating the hell out of something?
~Gordon Freeman
