Post a favorite quote or six.
Edited on Mon Oct-23-06 11:18 AM by seawolf
Points to anyone who knows the more obscure sources. (I do, but I'm not telling.)

"It feels so good to hold and be held." Truer words were never spoken, especially when you're a lonely bastard like me.

"I'm an eighteen year old male. I need no more excuse for my libido. It knows no bounds."

“Hitler called. He said he wants his 'look' back!”

“Bunch of illiterate hacks. They wouldn’t know a good game if it crawled up their ass sideways and sublet to a midget gymnastics squad.”

"We worship the prince of peace, not the prince of pre-emptive war." -Jimmy Carter

"He is racist, he's homophobic, he's xenophobic and he's a sexist. He's the perfect Republican candidate." -Bill Press (about Pat Buchanan)

3. "All persons, living and dead, are purely coincidental."
"Love may fail, but courtesy will prevail."

Both Vonnegut quotes.

And of course, one of my personal favorites:

"Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

Surely everyone knows the source of that.

6. As I grow older and older
And totter towards the tomb,
I find that I care less and less -
Who goes to bed with whom.

7. I love to drink martinis
Two at the very most.
Three, I'm under the table.
Four, I'm under the host.

9. "Whether you think you can or you can't you're right."
Henry Ford - 1903.

I had this carved on a rock on my desk. Few Sailors came to me telling me they couldn't do something.
