Now here's a nugget of wisdom:

"I understand that unrest in the Middle East creates unrest in the whole region."

--George W. Bush

"No matter how pretty or how nice she is, someone somewhere is tired of her shit."

Unknown

"It all comes to a three letter word "jobs" J-O-B-S" Joe Biden, Vice President

Quotes?

"Killing easy, being politically correct hard."

-black ninja leader, Destroy All Humans 2

"Ray, people will come Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you'll say. It's only $20 per person. They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it: for it is money they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. People will come Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come."
Terrence Mann, Field of Dreams

truly one of the greatest movie speeches of all time; james earl jones is great, isnt he?\

well, maybe the funniest.

how's about this one?

The President: Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.

Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.

We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.

We will be united in our common interests.

Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.

We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.

And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:

"We will not go quietly into the night!

We will not vanish without a fight!

We're going to live on!

We're going to survive!"

Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!

Or maybe this one:

Moore: Look around you. In the 7th Cavalry, we got a Captain from the Ukraine. Another from Puerto Rico. We've got Japanese, Chinese, Blacks, Hispanics, Cherokee Indians, Jews and Gentiles -- all Americans. Now here in the States, some men in this Unit may experience discrimination because of race or creed. But for you and me now, all that is gone. We're moving into the 'valley of the shadow of death' -- where you will watch the back of the man next to you, as he will watch yours. And you won't care what color he is or by what name he calls God.

 They say we're leavin' home. We're goin' to what home was always supposed to be. So let us understand the situation. We are goin' into battle against a tough and determined enemy. I can't promise you that I will bring you all home alive. But this I swear before you and before Almighty God: That when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to stop off. And I will leave no one behind.

Dead or alive, we will all come home together.

So help me God.

sure, we got movie quotes, but what about video game quotes?

"we made it...I cant believe we made it!"

"Son, we just crossed the street..." *takes smoke of cigarette* "...let's not throw a party 'till we've gotten out of the city..."

Bill to Louis, on top of roof - Left 4 Dead

"I believe in the right to bare arms.  And if you're good looking enough, the rest of your body as well."

The carrier story, while funny, is fake.

It is not the height, but the precipice that is terrible. - F. Nietzsche

eh, navy might be denying it, but I doubt it.  While it was purported as true in the magazine, it was mainly a humor based one. so I see how this may have just been accepted.

"The only thing half as melancholy as a battle won, is a battle lost."
