Pretty true, actually. What Lenin writes about is not exaclty Communism, it had government. Same basic ideas (revolution of preoletariat, etc.) but with permamnent dictatorship of the proletariat.

Pretty much any quote from Mark Twain is gold in my eyes :-w .

 

 

 

"[bleep] all the pop song puppy love [cabbage]. Your heart skipping a beat isn't love, it's cardiac arrhythmia....

 

[...]

 

 

 

And if the seventh time you have that conversation, knowing full well there will be an eighth time, you'd still rather have that conversation again than imagine a world she's not in, you're in love.

 

 

 

Especially if you do fix that thermostat... again... the next day, and not just so she'll shut up about it, but because you really don't want her to be cold anymore."

 

That's flippin' awesome: deep, cynical, and raw, my favorite kind of writing. Do you know who wrote that?

*fake sneeze* sorry, i'm allergic to bull crap.

 

the crap actually should be escalated to a worse word, you guys know what i mean :wink:

Another good one is "There is no "I" in team, but there is an M and an E"

Another good one is "There is no "I" in team, but there is an M and an E"

 

I had heard: "There is no 'I' in team, but there's a 'we' in weapon."

 

 

 

A good quote told by a not so very famous person: "Getting people to do what you want is merely a matter of telling them what they want to hear"

Indeed. Very true statement. Not that I have much time Reagan, but at least he implies the commonly interpreted definition of Communism is actually completely false.

well i could make a list that is REALLY long or i can give you the first one that popped nto my head...

 

 

 

I'll give you the first one :P

Another Reagan one that's true regardless of whether you support abortion or not:

 

 

 

"I've noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born"

 

 

 

Something like that anyways

 

 

 

and...

"You will live death in your life,

 

If all you do with your life is avoid death,

 

My goal is to stop reacting in life,

 

While reacting more in sports,

 

It is great work to strip man from his home,

 

Clothes, education, social circle, and job,

 

In order to preserve his freedom and individuality,

 

Giving him his own dreams,

 

Rather than those of society.

 

Life's cruelty is in its forced forfeit of all worldly

 

possessions

 

In trade for one's life.

 

Death should only be the reward,

 

The aftermath, not the focus of life.

 

The world lives life according to death,

 

Rather than death in accordance to life." -- Serj Tankian from the poem "Death"
