Quotes

If you wind up with a boring, miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on tv telling you how to do your shit, then you deserve it — Frank Zappa

What amazes me is that for such passion as most conservatives show on the abortion issue, the living don't seem to merit much sympathy.

I made my peace with the death of Michael Jackson years ago, when he stopped making music and started producing high-gloss, unlistenable turds and became the Official Were-Wraith of Pop, a hollow and ghost-like husk, into which goopy, vulgar celebrity was poured in order to give him the semblance of animation. Anyway, now that husk no longer shambles around our dimension, but sadly, I think think the uncontaminated soul of a troubled genius left this plane a long time ago. Sadly, there'll likely be a freakshow blitz of borderline repugnant post-death exploitation all over the media now, so our memory of the alien ant farm that took up residence inside MJ is likely to persist over that of the sweet kid who dizzyingly catapulted R&B ahead into the future - Jason Linkins of The Huffington Post

The GOP is now the perfect size to drown in a bathtub.

"Peace hath higher tests of manhood than battle ever knew."~ John Greenleaf Whittier

Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it. - Mark Twain

The wise are driven by reason; ordinary minds, by experience; the stupid, by necessity, and brutes by instinct - Cicero

There are two means of refuge from the misery of life - music and cats. - Albert Schweitzer

With a big ol’ lie And a flag and a pie , and a mom and a bible , most folks are liable to buy any line any place any time - Frank Zappa

An English man, and Irish man and a Scotsman all walk into a bar, and the bartender says,"What is this? Some kind of a joke... ? "

If you're being chased by a police dog ...try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're trained for that

The religious fanatics didn't buy the republican party because it was virtuous, they bought it because it was for sale

You see the whole culture. Nazis, deodorant salesmen, wrestlers, beauty contests, a talk show. Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling?

If Jesus came back and saw what's going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up. - Frederick from Hanna and Her Sisters

Get informed, and let it change you. - wonderingmind42's chemistry professor

They are coming to kill your children with nuclear missles strapped to their backs and with bees shooting out of their mouths. Wake up!

A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful implanted in the human soul --Johann Wolfgang Goethe
