Show me you’re quotes.

[Upxl]

I’m a fan of good quotations.
Show me what you got!

Here’s a start:

“It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations.”
Churchill

[Ianofsmeg16]

I said this wonderful quote when my friend laughed at me when i said i will be of Messenger for a while as i'm getting lunch...

"Can't i have a ****** sandwich any more without my dietry habits being brought into question please"

p.s. I like that Churchill quote :)

[miho]

My favourite one is in my sig.

"The point of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his."
-General George S. Patton

[Craterus]

My sig quote is good, at least I think it is...

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Well I just got a new sig quote.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Um, interesting? It doesn't show up.

Edit: oh, there it is

[Somebody Else]

Dear me! I must be turning into a god!

Vespasian on his deathbed.

[Ottos]

"As long as there are men there will be wars", from Albert Einstein. It's in my sig too.

[Fragony]

I won't pretend to be a fan of the man speaking it, but 'He who does not believe in miracles isn't a realist' is the best quote ever.

[English assassin]

"I am just going outside, and I may be some time."

And, from the same man (called on to surrender after being wounded in the Boer war) "I didn't come here to surrender, I came here to fight."

Yes, for schoolboy heroics you can't beat Titus Oates.

[Prodigal]

All time favorites...

"All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope."
- Churchill

"The only thing that sustains one through life is the consciousness of the immense inferiority of everybody else, and this is a feeling that I have always cultivated."
-Oscar Wilde

"The idea that Bill Gates has appeared like a knight in shining armour to lead all customers out of a mire of technological chaos neatly ignores the fact that it was he, by peddling second-rate technology, who led them into it in the first place. "
- Douglas Adams

"Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in the milk."
- Thoreau

[Ottos]

I have another one:
"History is kind to me, as I intend to write it."
I think it's one of Churchill, men that guy has many quotations, he must have said a lot.

[Fragony]

Some chick to Churchill: If you were my husband I would poisen your tea.
Churchill: If you were my wife I would drink it

Another one:

Churchill to chick: would you sleep with me for 1.000.000 pounds
woman: sure!
Chuchill: and for 100?
woman: what the fork do you think I am?
Churchill: I know what you are, just asking the price

Not god's most chivalrous being, but boy is he gooooooooooood

and no I am not frustrated with the opposite sex.

[Ottos]

Haha, lol
certainly good

[English assassin]

Some chick to Churchill: If you were my husband I would poisen your tea.
Churchill: If you were my wife I would drink it

The "chick" in question was Lady Astor, the first woman to take a seat in Parliament.

She and Churchill didn't get on, it seems, since this one is also attributed to them:

Astor: "Winston, you are drunk"

Churchill "And you, madam, are ugly. But in the morning I will be sober."

I might be wrong but I thought the one about the price was Bertrand Russell

[Ottos]

Theseones are definitely good, but then Churchill realy dissed Astor then.
Though, what a situation would it be there then in that parliament. Quite a mess I sepose

[Fragony]

Astor: "Winston, you are drunk"

Churchill "And you, madam, are ugly. But in the morning I will be sober."

What a guy! I'd kiss him on the mouth if I didn't have to dig him up first!

[Ottos]

Kiss a dead half-rotten body... you rather then me lol

[Fragony]

Kiss a dead half-rotten body... you rather then me lol

Ach ik heb wel een viezere wilde mossel gekraakt

[The Stranger]

whahahhaha gaan we ennel kakelen

when your hate and anger turns itself against you, you must come to your senses and stop the destruction of the spiritial unity...

IT SUCKS DOESNT IT...yeah i know...just made that up

[lugh]

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

There's some great one's here, again, from Churchill http://www.houseoftoucans.com/True/True1.html

Perhaps the best Churchillian put-down occurred one evening when he was attending a more than usually dreary dinner. Churchill was being harangued by a young lady with a very strident voice about the state of the poor. Our hero had had a few sips of shandy, and, whilst not exactly as relaxed as a newt, found her voice, manner and views (she had probably never met a 'poor' person) decided he'd had enough.

"My dear," he leaned closer, "Your concern for the poor does you great credit. But are you really dedicated to the cause? For instance, if I were to offer you one million pounds to donate to any charity you chose, would you make love with me?"

She had no choice but to answer in the affirmative. Churchill's voice got rather louder; "Well would you sleep with me for a fiver?"

"Sir Winston! Just what do you think I am?"

The famous voice rose to full bellow; "Young lady, we've already established exactly what you are - now we're just haggling about the price."

The young lady left in a flood of tears and a London taxi, and the rest of the dinner passed in glorious peace

[Upxl]

What a guy! I'd kiss him on the mouth if I didn't have to dig him up first!

Yes the guy had a neck fore nice quotes.

Like this one: History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
Winston



This one is of Albert

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but WW IV will be fought with sticks and stones

Albert Einstein.

[Upxl]

The famous voice rose to full bellow; "Young lady, we've already established exactly what you are - now we're just haggling about the price.

Hahahaha, this one is good at so many levels.

"I believe that who votes how in the party is unimportant. What is extremely important is who counts the votes and how they are recorded."

Good ol' Iosif Dzhughashvili. I actually have a shortened version of this quote on my car.

[Ottos]

On your car? How and where precisely?

btw Upxl, that one from Winston is good isn't it, I posted it too, some posts down.

[Monk]

“Everyone! It’s time for my one man show, Winston Churchill, we hardly knew ye. I’m Winston Churchill, would you like some tea? I would because I’m Winston Churchill. Would you like a crumpet? I would because I’m Winston Churchill. Would you like to wear knickers? I would because I’m Winston Churchill”

-Peter griffin.

Posted for all the churchill quotes

Sorry about that.

Oh, I don't mind that, I wouldn't have read whole thread neither. So don't you worry about that, it's ok.

Shredder: You freaks have been a thorn in my side long enough. No one opposes the Shredder. And now I will have my revenge for our last encounter. Say farewell to each other -- while you still can.

Michelangelo: Oh yeah, Mr. Spikey-Pants? Well, you’re the one who should be saying....uh...farewell to, um... to yourself!

Raphael: Yeah, Mikey. That got 'im.
