"Capitalism has destroyed our belief in any effective power but that of self interest backed by force." - George Bernard Shaw
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
~ Lucille Ball
"I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag." - Smedley Darlington Butler
"The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home." - James Madison
"When men talk about defense, they always claim to be protecting women and children, but they never ask the women and children what they think" - Pat Schroeder
The best things in life are unexpected - because there were no expectations.

"I am on a drug, it's called 'Charlie Sheen'. It's not available because if you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body."
Gaddafi: "It's al-Qaeda. They went into military bases and seized arms and they're terrorising the people. The people who had the weapons were youngsters. They're starting to lay down their weapons now, as the drugs al-Qaeda gave them wear off."

"Morality is the best of all devices for leading mankind by the nose" - Friedrich Nietzsche
"Until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war and until there are no longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes. And until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race, there is war. And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war." - Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia
Politicians should read science fiction, not westerns and detective stories.
