“A sergeant in motion outranks a lieutenant who doesn't know what's going on.”

A good sergeant pretty much outranks a lieutenant anyway.

Sure, but in that case it's redundant. It's like saying "A tall man who is tall is taller than a short man who is short."

I would agree if it was all sergeants who were good. Not all of them are.

“They used to call the devil the father of lies. But for someone whose sin is meant to be pride you'd think that lying would leave something of a sour taste. So my theory is that when the devil wants to get something out of you, he doesn't lie at all. He tells you the exact, literal truth. And he lets you find your own way to hell.“

“But now, it is not as a woman descended from noble ancestry, but as one of the people that I am avenging lost freedom, my scourged, and marked body, the outraged chastity of my daughters. Roman lust has gone so far that not our very person, nor even age or virginity, are left unpolluted. But heaven is on the side of a righteous vengeance; a legion which dared to fight has perished; the rest are hiding themselves in their camp, or are thinking anxiously of flight. They will not sustain even the din and the shout of so many thousands, much less our charge and our blows. If you weigh well the strength of the armies, and the causes of the war, you will see that in this battle you must conquer or die. This is a woman's resolve; as for men, they may live and be slaves, and captive.“

"I agree that faith is essential to success in life ... but I do not accept your definition of faith, i.e. belief in life after death. In my view, all that is necessary for faith is the belief that by doing our best we shall come nearer to success and that success in our aims (the improvement of the lot of mankind, present and future) is worth attaining ... I maintain that faith in this world is perfectly possible without faith in another world."

--Rosalind Franklin

"Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart."

-Anne Frank

"Experience praises the most happy the one who made the most people happy."

-Karl Marx

"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it"

-Gautama Siddharta

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"

-Attributed to Theodor Geisel.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn.

-Hemingway. Also the best story ever told in only six words.
Matthew 22:39 "And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." God's own "don't be a dick" rule.

Lithp and Vene really need to have some kind of confusing sexual encounter where Vene spends the entire session lovingly insulting Lithp's technique, then cums on his face, ruffles his hair, says, "You're all right, kid!", and then punches him in the nuts.

Cause we shouldn't got 9 days without words of awesome have some Jordan of Scrubs fame on relationships:

Jordan: Now that you've said what he wants to hear, he doesn't have to work for it! It's like when guys are really trying to sleep with you. When you finally give it up, there are no more flowers. Next thing you know, it's twenty years later, and you're standing over him while he sleeps, your third Martini in one hand and a steak knife in the other. And sure, he's taken a sleeping pill so you can slice his arm open a little bit without waking him up. But it's not satisfying. And you know why? Because you've lost the power. (Dr. Cox comes up) Hey PerPer. Did you ever figure out what happened to your arm? (His arm is sporting a noticeable bandage)
Dr. Cox: Nope.
Jordan: Phew.

"You yellow dogs, you thought I'd never make it home from the land of Troy. You took my house to plunder, twisted my maids to serve your beds. You dared bid for my wife while I was still alive. Contempt was all you had for the gods who rule wide heaven, contempt for what men say of you hereafter. Your last hour has come. You die in blood."
- Odysseus, from The Odyssey (Fitzgerald translation), Book XXII, "Death in the Great Hall"
Formerly known as Eva-Beatrice and Wykked Wytch.

The evil that men do does not invalidate the good that they do, nor does the good excuse the evil.

But you just know there was the one guy who had just showed up that same day to see what the story was with the line of other guys queuing out the door. And he gets Odysseus'd. Bad day.
