Excellent! the worlds greatest Artist - even BR may agree with that one... 1 Reply RobertSRQ 5/16/08 re: Leonardo da Vinci quote The desire to know by bad men is undesirable Reply RobertSRQ 5/13/08 re: Thomas Jefferson quote Yes, Carlton, I'm not ignorant of the facts either...when I'm told by governement and the media that we only have 3.98 inflation, only 5.1 unemployerment, and that our economy is not in a recession - by the way, our underground reserves of oil are at about 97% - 'Fear is the darkroom where negatives are developed' source unknown unless someone out there can tell me Reply RobertSRQ 5/13/08 re: Remy De Gourmont quote E. that one is on top of my list. Ron, I'm sorry, but you are way off base with Paul's (possible) quote. How dare anyone presume superiority over another by a belief system; and any God that sends one to eternal damnation and makes them suffer pain for all time is no God I wish to know - in actual fact I would rise up and do battle with such a God. By the way, I presume you are making a metaphoric statement when you say "...If you can't see---you can't take it" or was it meant only for those that can see? Lastly, if it's that obvious why doesn't God just come down and tell us - surely that would do away with any notion of nature's natural exquisite beauty. 2 Reply RobertSRQ 5/13/08 re: John Locke quote This quote is right-on; I'm afraid Paul's quote is right-off. The disease we have is not from any fruit but from ourselves, it's a malady that most take with them to the grave - it's called greed and indifference - as Archer said yesterday: '...The truth indeed frees those bound to belief systems. I think if Jesus were to return today, many so-called Christian faiths would come tumbling down' top marks for that one Archer. 1 Reply RobertSRQ 5/12/08 re: Dwight D. Eisenhower quote I always thought the current administration were aliens Reply RobertSRQ 5/12/08 re: William Cowper quote Truth needs no memory, no law, and no religion Reply RobertSRQ 5/12/08 re: Thomas Paine quote Truth is the greatest gift we have and there's no charge for it. Reply RobertSRQ 5/8/08 re: Plato quote Ten stars... Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the tyrant of them all... 1 Reply RobertSRQ 5/8/08 re: James Madison quote And yet we fall for it everytime - he who stands by and does nothing is just as guilty. We have allowed this nearly eight years of hell while the perpetrators have lined their pockets with gold. The selfishness, greed, apathy, intolerance, and arrogance is our staple diet in America, along with listening to the Rush Limbaugh's of this world, and watching ESPN while scoffing McDonald's and washing it down with beer... Reply RobertSRQ 5/8/08 re: H. L. Mencken quote What a load of Codswallop; there are those who have good intensions and those who don't, PERIOD. Unfortunately, the many with good intensions are duped by believing those with bad intensions who espouse for their own agenda, family values, security, and Christianity (or any other religion), etc. etc. 1 Reply RobertSRQ 5/6/08 re: Germaine Greer quote We spend trillions on security and are you really more secure today than yesterday. As Archer said it is all an illusion and indeed Carpe Diem! Reply RobertSRQ 5/5/08 re: Edmund Burke quote We nee Robin Hood and his Merry men back - does anyone have their address? 2 Reply RobertSRQ 5/5/08 re: Edmund Burke quote Bring on the Patriot Act and Homeland Security - O those devilish politicians... Reply RobertSRQ 5/5/08 re: Frederic Bastiat quote Like the first quote - I like this one too! We are such funny creatures... Reply RobertSRQ 5/5/08 re: Ashleigh Brilliant quote I like it too! Reply RobertSRQ 5/2/08 re: William E. Borah quote Excellent Archer - indeed! it reminds me of the Baker who was fined by the judge because the baker wanted to prosecute a young boy for stealing a loaf of bread. The judge said next time the fine will be double. It was Buddha who said 'You may listen to what I say and only take in what you wish' It was the Vedic religion (first recorded) who were first to say 'Treat others as you wish to be treated' -- nor stand for such collusion with a tyrannical system - well done whoever said that. Reply RobertSRQ 5/2/08 re: Mark Thornton quote And then the tide will turn and he will write the sequel "The Rise and Fall of Puritanical Policy in America". It has always amazed me how most Christian's (because there are a few who are good people) commit crimes by association and apathy, eat the flesh of a dead animals, then go to church on a Sunday and pretend they are embracing life. The Sheeple are the most egregious when herded together. Reply RobertSRQ 5/2/08 re: Isaiah Berlin quote Terry, very good! It has continued since the day we stepped out of the caves - we are manipulated by religion, governement, despots, and anyone that wants control over another (I love the line 'All forms of tampering with human beings...') The vast majority allow the tampering - it's easy; I have food on the table and a good job; go ahead and tamper as much as you like... Reply RobertSRQ 5/2/08 re: H. L. Mencken quote I like the comments though - when will Waffler realize law does not follow the way of the majority, though in many cases they try desperately to have their way. 2 Reply RobertSRQ 5/2/08 re: Eric Hoffer quote Such is TODAY - we are not blind just ignorant. We each have our boxes and most are still in them - Excellent retort Mike. 2 Reply RobertSRQ 4/30/08 re: Harriet Tubman quote O how true that rings today - we could free millions if only they knew they are slaves. The road to enlightenment is paved with ignorance and greed and so blinded are they with their own comfort that the road will remain their home. Reply RobertSRQ 4/30/08 re: Billie Holiday quote Love it... and we are still slaves to the South 6 Reply RobertSRQ 4/30/08 re: Frank Zappa quote To change the way we perceive things means knowledge and education something the current administration is suppressing, and the reason is quite obvious - THE illusion of liberty, freedom and security - once the scenery has been removed you will have the culprits hiding behind the brick wall. 1Reply RobertSRQ 4/30/08 re: Mark Berley quote PC is meaningless when it comes to the reality of politics – just look at the tripe that’s being dealt by the media (especially Fox News) and the scotched-earth tactics of Hillary. PC doesn’t even come close to having substance anything - what a sham... Previous 25 Next 25 SaveOk2 Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
