"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." -Rich Cook

"Beware of computer programmers that carry screwdrivers." -Leonard Brandwein

"The great thing about a computer notebook is that no matter how much you stuff into it, it doesn't get bigger or heavier" -Bill Gates

"If computers get too powerful, we can organize them into a committee -- that will do them in." -Bradley's Bromide

"If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside." -Robert X. Cringely

"The most likely way for the world to be destroyed, most experts agree, is by accident. That's where we come in; we're computer professionals. We cause accidents." -Nathaniel Borenstein

"Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?" Let us analyze that sentence for a moment. If you're a stickler, you probably think the singular verb "is" should have been the plural "are," but if you read it closely, you'll see I'm using the intransitive plural subjunctive tense. So the word "is" are correct.

The secret of creativity is knowing how to hide your sources. -Albert Einstein

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it - Voltaire

Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be banished, persons attempting to find a moral in it will be prosecuted, persons attempting to find a plot in it will be shot. - Mark Twain (Samuel Clemmens) Quote this one for your English teacher the next time he/she tries to make you disect a Twain work

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide. Or so we've been told and some choose to beleive it - I know they're wrong wait and see. Someday we'll find it, the Rainbow Connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me. - Kermit

If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone, you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles. - Peter Paul and Mary

How many roads must a man walk down before they call him a man? How many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand? How many times must the cannonballs fly before they're forever banned? The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind. - Peter Paul and Mary

In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep, from the mountains of fate, to the river so deep. I must be lookin' for somethin', somethin' sacred I long. But the river is deep, and it's too hard to cross. - Billy Joel

They don't gotta burn the books they just remove 'em. - RATM

And some wonderful quotes from our president Bush:

Iran would be dangerous if they have a nuclear weapon. - Really?
I'm the master of low expectations. - He must be very pleased...
I recently met with the finance minister of the Palestinian Authority, was very impressed by his grasp of finances. - A finance minister... Familiar with "finances"? Go figure!
First, let me make it very clear, poor people aren't necessarily killers. Just because you happen to be not rich doesn't mean you're willing to kill. - OK - I'm officially scared.
I think war is a dangerous place. - I think so too.
The war on terror involves Saddam Hussein because of the nature of Saddam Hussein, the history of Saddam Hussein, and his willingness to terrorize himself. - Gee... I didn't know Saddam was a self-inflicting sadomasochist...
Sometimes, Washington is one of these towns where the person—people who think they've got the sharp elbow is the most effective person. - Couldn't sharp elbows be dangerous in a crowded town like Washington?

The mirror only reflects what it can reflect, reflecting a non-fictional reality hidden inside order and chaos should be mutually exclusive to something reflected as fictional.

I would like to post my modified version of JFK's famous quote:
"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask who you can do for your country."

I beleive it hardly does justice to needed pathological reparations in respects to this philandering druggie murderer's unrecognized crimes.
