WOW!

(Wonders Of Web, and other such nonsense.)

Quotations.

Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast.
    - Douglas Adams

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities.
    - Dr. Seuss

We learn from history that man can never learn anything from history.
    - Hegel

If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.
    - Bertrand Russell

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.
    - George Jean Nathan

You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred.
    - Woody Allen

Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.
    - Kurt Vonnegut

A boy can learn a lot from a dog: obedience, loyalty, and the importance of turning around three times before lying down.
    - Robert Benchley

There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.
    - Mary Wilson Little

I don't want someone shoving his views down my throat, unless they're covered in a crunchy candy shell.
    - Stephen Colbert

You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.
    - Jack London

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.
    - George Jean Nathan

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
    - Albert Einstein

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
    - Mark Twain
