Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt

"I have a Consitution. I just read it for the articles."

Jon Stewart

"A great man once said: 'Ignorance is Bliss'.   Who was that man?
Don't know, don't wanna know....."

I believe that's attributable to John Cleese, the Foreign Phrasebook sketch.

Ah, got it.

Making magic items is like programming a computer code. Each Wizard does it a little differently, and some follow Good Magic Practices -- the world doesn't end if the user does something weird to the bag -- while others are perhaps more sloppy :) - Kouk (epic quote, imo)

It was very good.  Reminds me of:

"Never rush a Miracleman, kid.  You rush a Miracleman, you get rotten miracles."

"Some people would say my paintings show a future world and maybe they do, but I paint from reality. I put several things and ideas together, and perhaps, when I have finished, it could show the future. If people want to interpret my work as warnings about too much overpopulation, disease and mechanization in the future, then that is up to them. I like to combine human beings, creatures and biomechanics. And I love to work with bones - they are elemental and function and, after all, are part of human beings. I have many bones in my home in Zurich, and I study them and use them as models. Some people say my work is often depressing and pessimistic, with the emphasis on death, blood, overcrowding, strange beings and so on, but I don't really think it is. There is hope and a kind of beauty in there somewhere, if you look for it." - H.R. Giger


"Sometimes people only see horrible, terrible things in my paintings." - H.R. Giger


"The Dutch Customs once thought my pictures were photos. Where on Earth did they think I could have photographed my subjects? In Hell, perhaps?" - H.R. Giger

Sharp:  "Trust me."
Cooper:  "Its' very hard to trust a man who wants to borrow a pick-lock, Sir."

Lester B. Pearson

"Hit a man once, and he'll hit you right back. Hit a man twice, and he'll wait for revenge. Hit a man so many times he forgets why you started hitting him in the first place, and he'll cower every time you raise your hand."
