    Default Re: The quotations thread

    Stalin (for all his brutality) does have some very good quotes/sayings:

    "The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic"

    "Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?"

    Rumored to be said after receiving a report about Marshal Konstantin Rokossovsky's inappropriately large number of female lovers.

    "Quantity is quality"
    or
    "Quantity has a quality all its own"

    There are also some good ones from Warhammer 40k (the board game)

    "There are some who question your right to order millions of people to death, what they do not understand is that you have no right to let those people live"

    "A small mind is easily filled with faith"

    "Blessed is the mind too small for doubt"

    Ofcourse there are others, but I don't want to make a long post, now do I?

    "One of the nice things about looking at a bear is that you know it spends 100 per cent of every minute of every day being a bear. It doesn't strive to become a better bear. It doesn't go to sleep thinking, "I wasn't really a very good bear today". They are just 100 per cent bear, whereas human beings feel we're not 100 per cent human, that we're always letting ourselves down. We're constantly striving towards something, to some fulfilment"
    -Stephen Fry
