“I will not tip toe through life only to arrive safely at death.”
“I will not tip toe through life only to arrive safely at death.”
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
-- Ayn Rand, Anthem (Chapter 11)
Dying is easy. Living is hard.
One that I use quite frequently:
"There is a fine line between the passing glance of a stranger and the cold deep stare of a hardened psychopath".
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

I'll buy that for a dollar.
I love RoboCop!
Two of my favorite ones are:
When someone I don't really like finally leaves, "Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya."
In retort to a stupid person's comment: "Somewhere there is a tree working really hard to produce oxygen so you can breathe... I think you should go apologize to it."
"There is no news in the truth, and no truth in the news."
"The revolution will not be televised... Instead it will be filmed from multiple angles via cell phone cameras, promptly uploaded to YouTube, Tweeted about, and then shared on Facebook, pending a Wi-Fi connection."
I wanted to post my favorite John Wayne quote from The Sands of Iwo Jima but submit this one from Clint Eastwood instead:
White water in the morning.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Haw haw haw?..
