Homer Simpson is famous for coining the expression "Doh" I believe its even in the dictionary. However he is not the person who first made this famous. Does anyone know who this person was?

Homer the Greek?
Azi (yeah right...like I really want to admit to THAT)
Mark Twain 1881"If you don't want to work, become a reporter. That awful power, the public opinion of the nation, was created by a horde of self-complacent simpletons who failed at ditch digging and shoemaking and fetched up journalism on their way to the poorhouse."

Classic.
GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

Been to:
Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

So there you go.
Cowardice is to run from the fear;
Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
But to hold the line anyway.

Can a cartoon character be a plagiarist?
If a tree falls in the forest when no one is there does it make any noise
Does anyone care

Re: Homer Simpson is a plagerist
He is not thats heresy give me sources sources I say:
There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: Homer Simpson is a plagerist
Have you ever watched a Laurel and Hardy Movie? He does it all the time. Usually while grabing the edges of his derby .He is not thats heresy give me sources sources I say ~

Re: Homer Simpson is a plagerist
http://www.worldwidewords.org/topicalwords/tw-doh1.htmThe one that has attracted press attention is doh. Most of us would associate it—or d’oh as Matt Groening would write it and Dan Castellaneta would say it—with that famous American cartoon export The Simpsons, which has broadcast it across the world.
But, as the OED’s entry shows, the little exclamation doh!, with its candid admission of foolishness on the part of the speaker (or of frustration at the way things have turned out), has been around rather longer than the Simpsons. Indeed, Dan Castellaneta has said that he based Homer’s noise on those that were uttered by James Finlayson, a Scots actor who appeared in many of Laurel and Hardy’s comedies. The first example in the OED’s entry—the first time the sound appeared in print with this spelling—is from a British school story of 1952 by Anthony Buckeridge. After lurking for a couple more decades, the little noise really burst forth in print from the early nineties on. Hey, that’s just after the Simpsons appeared! Doh!
Re: Homer Simpson is a plagerist
Laurel and Hardy are hilarious.
Re: Homer Simpson is a plagerist
More plagiarism from the Simpsons - "Christpuncher" is the name of a joke metal band from somwhere in the US, which was used a name for Homer's biker gang.
