Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine

[Kieran-Lilith]

I haven't read all of these, only about half, so please forgive me any repeats.

"I'd love to have a 'battle of wits' with you...but you appear unarmed.

"It is better to be hated for what you are than to be liked for what you are not."

"If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers."

"I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer."

"I bow to no one, and I fight for a cause."

"Have the fearless attitude of a hero, and the loving heart of a child."

"Always forgive your enemies-nothing annoys them so much."

"The basis of optimism is sheer terror."

"When you're right, no one remembers. When you're wrong, no one forgets."

"Cheer up. The worst is yet to come!"

"Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film."

"Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm."

"When a man's fight begins within himself, he is worth something."

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become."

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him keep step to music which he hears, however measured or far away."

"Ask yourself constantly, 'What is the right thing to do?'"

"If, when you look into your own heart, you find nothing wrong there, what is there to worry about, what is there to fear?"

"Our minds have unbelievable power over our bodies."

"To struggle when hope is banished!/To live when life's salf is gone!/To dwell in a dream that's vanished-/To endure, and go calmly on!"

"Never forget what they did to you, but never let them know that you remember."

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." ~ albert einstien

"He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." ~ albert einstien

nationalism is an infantile disease.it is the measles of mankind ~ albert einstien

I dislike death, however, there are some things I dislike more than death. Therefore, there are times when I will not avoid danger.

I am undefeated in all of Asia. Of course, I have never fought in any of Asia. Which pretty much guarantees I'm undefeated there.
