"it takes great courage for some one to voice an unpopular opinion but it only takes a coward to prey on them" ralph K

 

Nice quote that...

 

Here's another - little long-winded...

 

"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of Bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits."

 

Sir Josiah Stamp

President of the Bank of England in the 1920's

 

I'm sure I have some slightly more positive ones... somewhere... :rolleyes:

I love a good quote: This is a list of my favorites. Sorry, I don't know the authors of any of them. I just wrote them down whenever I heard one I really liked.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyways,

 

Misery is almost always the result of thinking,

 

Always forgive your enemies, but never forget their names,

 

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,

 

There are few problems in life that wouldn't be eased by the proper application of high explosives,

 

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.

 

We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them,

 

Being brave doesn't mean never being afraid to act...it means being willing to act even though you're afraid,

 

Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death,

 

Beware the fury of a patient man,

 

Never Explain — your Friends do not need it and your Enemies will not believe you anyway,

 

It is when pirates count their booty that they become mere thieves.

 

Fool me once...shame on you, fool me twice....shame on me.

'Everythings gonna be fine. Stay optimistic.

If theres dark clouds coming up, theyll leave again.

They always do. The world is round. Everythings round.

The biggest invention of all times, the wheel, it is round.

Things pass. Nothing will stay the same forever.

No matter in how big a pile of shit you've gotten

yourself - be it drugs, financial problems, fucked up

relations: youll get over it. Itll go away just

like the weather.' - Noel Gallagher
