Random Quotes I like:

"In time of war, the loudest patriots are the greatest profiteers." ~ August Bebel

"The principle that the majority have a right to rule the minority, practically resolves all government into a mere contest between two bodies of men, as to which of them shall be masters, and which of them slaves; a contest, that -- however bloody -- can, in the nature of things, never be finally closed, so long as man refuses to be a slave."~Lysander Spooner (this is my favorite)

 

"Ever put your face so close to the Sunday's comics newspaper? Its a mass of dots up close, Life is like that sometimes, up close, you can not expect it to make sense. But in God's perspective, Life, Everything.. make sense. Its not just dots, but instead we are all connected, and it's beautiful, and funny, and good. just like the comic page of the newspaper....."

Even though I use:

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." I find that it applies to a lot of situations in my life.

 

"To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down." - Woody Allen

"Loves makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place." - Zora Neale Hurston
