"Nothing's immposible, not if you can immagine it!"

[Caska]

The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread.

You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?

We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

--Jack Swinton, editor, New York Times

Just wanted to comment on this from the last thread.

Jack Swinton, whoever he is, is no journalist if that's his opinion. He's just some idiot who should not be writing for any respectable paper. Take it from Woodward and Bernstein. That's not what the press it about.

To be a little more on-topic, here's some more quotes:

"I can resist everything except temptation."
- Oscar Wilde

"The ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit."
- Somerset Maugham

"Skill is successfully walking a tightrope over Niagara Falls. Intelligence is not trying."
- Anonymous

"Imagination is more important than knowledge."
- Einstein

"I have mathematical proof women are evil. A girlfriend requires a lot of your time. so Woman = Time.
Now the old saying time equals money. Woman=Time=money
Now of course you know that money is the root of all evil.
Woman=Time=Money=(Evil^1/2)
Since all values are equal women are also the root of all evil."

I've posted that before but I put a disclaimer that it wasn't actually mine. I have no idea where it came from though.

"Use of Discman as a projectile in a catapult will void warranty." Actual warning label (It may be slighted misquoted.)

"Caution contents may be hot."
I love this warning on the sides of the cup of hot coffe you just ordered, its even worse when its adevertised as piping hot coffe. Its not like you can't feel the heat through the cup or anything either.

"Mind you, the Elizabethans had so many words for the female genitals that it is quite hard to speak a sentence of modern English without inadvertently mentioning at least three of them."

"I think perhaps the most important problem is that we are trying to understand the fundamental workings of the universe via a language devised for telling one another when the best fruit is."
