Okay, there's a funny story behind this one, so just bear with me.
"I am John, John of the Mountain. All kneel before me or feel my wrath. Now go, go to reservation or you will get no more guns from King Cets!"
- My daddy

Favorite quotes from The Little Book of Faith:
"Talk unbelief, and you will have unbelief; talk faith, and you will have faith. According to the seed sown will be the harvest." ~Plato
"If it can be verified, we don't need faith." ~Madeleine L'Engle
"I believe in Christianity as I believe in the sun; not only because I see it, but because by it I see every thing else." ~C. S. Lewis

Some of Heraclitus' fragments that I enjoy:
"Evil witnesses are eyes and ears for men, if they have souls that do not understand their language."
"What is in opposition is in concert, and from what differs comes the most beautiful harmony."
"After death things await men which they do not expect or imagine."
"It is not good for men to obtain all they wish."

Here's a little Epicurean wisdom that struck me today:
"The truest happiness does not come from enjoyment of physical pleasures but from a simple life, with the normal physical needs satisfied."

To be a fool, is to be in utopia. To be intelligent, is to be without common sense. And to be mean, is to be something I don't understand.
