“There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”

If the right people had been in charge of Nixon's funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles. He was a swine of a man and a jabbering dupe of a president.

"Yes, and I love the trite mythos of the outlaw. I love the self conscious romanticism of the outlaw, the black wardrobe of the outlaw, the fey smile of the outlaw. I love the tequila of the outlaw and the beans of the outlaw. I love the way respectable men sneer when they say 'outlaw' while young women palpitate when they say 'outlaw'."

Motivational, leadership, educational, or just interesting.


A couple of motivational ones from Steve Prefontaine:

- To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift

- Somebody may beat me, but they are going to have to bleed to do it.

- I run to see who has the most guts.




Some from Abraham Lincoln:

- Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.

- Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.

- You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.




Richard Feynman quotes:

- It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with the experiment, it's wrong.

- The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and YOU are the easiest person to fool.




Mark Twain quotes:

- If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

- A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way.

- The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.




Bradford Brown quotes:

- My greatest success is attained when I am willing to let myself be perfectly fallible.

- That I seldom live up to my expectations is the excuse waiting for me not to try.

- Success starts in the imagination, but ends in sweat.


and finally...my favorite quote:

- I drank what? ~ Socrates
