1. When we help others...
When we help others, we are really helping ourselves.
So unless you're selfish, don't help others.

6. As long as war is regarded as wicked,
it will always have its fascination. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.


(thanks for this thread, I am having a blast!)

7. Do you really think it is weakness
that yields to temptation? I tell you that there are terrible temptations which it requires strength, strength and courage to yield to.

(Oscar Wilde was the best!)

9. Qwip
You don't want the truth. Because deep
down, in places you don't talk about at
parties, you want me on that wall. You want
me there
(boasting)
We use words like honor, code,
loyalty...we use these words as the
backbone to a life spent defending
something. You use 'em as a punchline.
(beat)
I have neither the time nor the
inclination to explain myself to a man who
rises and sleeps under the blanket of the
very freedom I provide, then questions the
manner in which I provide it. I'd prefer
you just said thank you and went on your
way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a
weapon and stand a post. Either way, I
don't give a damn what you think you're :hi:
entitled to.

10. The world is a stage,

13. "Your Majesty is like a dose of clap...
...before you arrive is pleasure, but after is a pain in the dong."

It was one of Wilde's!

14. That's it, I can take it no longer! It's a beautiful day here in MN
so I'm gonna bolt outta here and go paddling!

I'll check for more quips, witticisms and perhaps the occasional bon mot upon the morrow! :hi: (that's me waving goodbye!)

Ah, I do love paddling.... B-)
