"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former." Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

Not a quote as such, but a line from Peter Gabriel's Mercy Street

"looking down on empty streets, all she can see
are the dreams all made solid
are the dreams all made real

all of the buildings, all of those cars
were once just a dream
in somebody's head"

"It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things."

Terry Pratchett, Jingo

Quote:

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
-Dr. Adrian Rogers

yeah, sometimes enough is enough! Whomever said," What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is nuts.

The Godfather, an ex-boss, a hooker, a car-salesman, or an asshole at large...take your pick.
