| I love this one by Churchill. I don't know if it's exact, but it's close enough. At the time, Churchill was responding to a woman who was accusing him of being a drunken boor: "Madame, I may be drunk now, but I'll be sober in the morning and you'll still be ugly." |

"The moral flabbiness born of the exclusive worship of the bitch-goddess success. That�with the squalid cash interpretation put on the word success�is our national disease."
�William James

-Martin Luther King, Jr.
" the problem was you had to keep choosing between one evil or another, and no matter what you chose, they sliced a little bit more off you, until there was nothing left. at the age of 25 most people were finished. a whole god-damned nation of assholes driving automobiles, eating, having babies, doing everything in the worst way possible, like voting for the presidential candidate who reminded them most of themselves."
-Charles Bukowski
" you will only create
(who are so perfectly alive) my shame:
lady whose profound and fragile lips
the sweet small clumsy feet of April came
into the ragged meadow of my soul."
