I've been about to go to bed for an hour but I had to read everything in the forum first and I love posting quotes so here goes a bunch (but short ones).
"Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper."
--Robert Frost
The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning, and does not stop until you get into the office.
-- Robert Frost
Forgive, O Lord, my little jokes on Thee
And I'll forgive Thy great big one on me.
-- Robert Frost
I have but the simplest taste - I am always satisfied with the best
-- Oscar Wilde
To be popular one must be a mediocrity.
-- Oscar Wilde
Morality, like art, means drawing a line someplace.
-- Oscar Wilde
Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.
-- Oscar Wilde
Beware you be not swallowed up in books! An ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.
-- John Wesley
Tact is the ability to describe others as they see themselves.
-- Abraham Lincoln
We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The person who stands up and says, 'This is stupid,' either is asked to behave or, worse, is greeted with a cheerful 'Yes, we know! Isn't it terrific!'
-- Frank Zappa
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
-- Leo Tolstoy
Historians are like deaf people who go on answering questions that no one has asked them.
-- Leo Tolstoy
The poet takes the best things out of his life and puts them into his work. Hence his work is beautiful and his life bad.
-- Leo Tolstoy
A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterward.
-- Jean Paul Richter (1763 - 1825)
It is with our passions, as it is with fire and water, they are good servants but bad masters.
--Aesop (620 BC - 560 BC)
One of the serious problems in planning the fight against American doctrine, is that the Americans do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine...
-- From a Soviet Junior Lt's Notebook
"We don't like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out."
-- Decca Records Rejecting the Beatles, in 1962
"I do not like this word "bomb." It is not a bomb. It is a device that is exploding."
-- Jacques le Blanc, French ambassador on nuclear weapons
"True originality consists not in a new manner but in a new vision."
-- Edith Wharton
"Where you find the laws most numerous, there you will find also the greatest injustice."
--Arcesilaus

Annie: (Sitting in the kitchen, eating her own apple tart) "Fetch it yerself."
Jack: "Oh come on, the lottery's startin'!" (He watches the tv, lotto ticket in hand. The tv shows the first winning number.)
Jack: "Oh, there we go. The first one." (The second number is shown.)
Jack: "Would you look at that, Annie! We've got the second one!" (Annie begins to be curious. The third number is revealed.)
Jack: "Hey! The third one! The third one!" (Annie brings her tart into the living room, eyes affixed on the tv.)
Annie: "D'ya mean it, Jackie?"

Annie: "Did we win?"
Jack: (takes Annie's tart) "No, but it got me my tart."
(Annie slaps Jackie and goes to the kitchen. Jackie giggles again.)
