War can only be abolished through war, and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun. --Mao Tse-tung

Seems like there is alot of controversy if this following quote is real or not but hell its nice anyway

Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a
double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the
mind.
And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood
boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in
seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with
fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto
the leader and gladly so.
How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.
Albert Einstein

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot further the brotherhood of man encouraging class hatred. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
- Abraham Lincoln

They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty or safety.

This is our purpose: to make as meaningful as possible this life that has been bestowed upon us; to live in such a way that we may be proud of ourselves; to act in such a way that some part of us lives on.

The short man who dances with a tall woman will get busted in the mouth.

He who speakeths by the yard, and thinkeths by the inch, should be kickethed by the foot.

As they say in Antarctica, "No sweat."

A smart man marries his last wife first.

There is no woman so lovely, so charming, so beautiful, that somewhere there isn't a man who is sick and tired of her.

Evil thinks not to beguile us by unveiling the terrible truth of its festering intent, but comes, instead, disguised in the diaphanous robes of virtue, whispering sweet-sounding lies intended to seduce us into the dark bed of our eternal graves
