There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
"The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

Whilst writing for their album Never Mind The Bollocks, The Sex Pistols' manager Malcolm McLaren gave them a list he'd written of 'punk-type words' he wanted them to use. One of the words was 'submission' - McLaren expected a song about bondage, whips and chains et cetera. So to annoy him the Pistols wrote a song about a submarine mission

It was theirs but to do or die.

Patton never said this: "No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.
He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country."
The man who is really responsible for it, is Carlo d'Este from "A Genius for War"

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.

Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are always said to avoid each other, even in a cast of a film. Godfather II was an exception but they never were in the same scene in that film. However, the movie - Heat was the first one to do that. Even though there were rumors that they used stuntmen (right word?) for the dinner scene, from the wideshots it was obvious that they acted together in the same shot.
