"Every evil tyrant has a plan to rule the world. The good people don't seem to have the knack."

"People -think- they want good government and justice for all, yet what is it they really crave, deep in their hearts? Only that things go on as normal and tomorrow is pretty much like today."

- Lord Vetinari
 
Dr. Peter Venkman: Alice, I'm going to ask you a couple of standard questions, okay? Have you or any of your family been diagnosed schizophrenic? Mentally incompetant?

Librarian Alice: My uncle thought he was Saint Jerome.

Dr. Peter Venkman: I'd call that a big yes. Uh, are you habitually using drugs? Stimulants? Alcohol?

Librarian Alice: No.

Dr. Peter Venkman: No, no. Just asking. Are you, Alice, menstruating right now?

Library Administrator: What's has that got to do with it?

Dr. Peter Venkman: Back off, man. I'm a scientist.

Here is a quote I actually do like a lot:

"I inherit nothing. I stand at the end of no tradition. I may, perhaps, stand at the beginning of one."

I like that!

Ok, now a serious favorite quote:



We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?
Actually, Who are YOU NOT TO BE?
You are a child of God...

Your playing small doesn't serve the world.

THERE'S NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU.
We were born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us...ALL of us.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.


Nelson Mandela
 
The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin?
My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery.
My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink.
He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark.
Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy.
The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons.
In the spring we'd make meat helmets.
When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really.
At the age of twelve I received my first scribe.
At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles.
There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

Dr. Evil

:heart: Loveth. :heart: Matter of fact, I just watched this again last night on Spike TV - for at least the 100th time. :yes: :up:



As for quotes, I believe one of my faves actually came from Kirk Cobain: I'd rather be hated for what I am than loved for what I am not.
