Favorite Quotations
- We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology -Carl Sagan
- In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion. - Carl Sagan
- 'Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.' -John Steinbeck
- "So long, and thanks for all the fish." Message left by dolphins when they departed Planet Earth as described in "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Universe." (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/So_Long,_and_Thanks_for_All_the_Fish )
- “Let’s say that she’s 90 percent [recovered]. Well, we’ve had congressmen in Arizona who didn’t even have a brain. So, it’s not like you have to be as talented as she is to be good at it.” Mike McNulty, Rep. Gabrielle Giffords' last campaign manager on her viability to run for Sen. Kyl's Senate seat in Arizona (Newsweek, 4/10/11)
- Life is what happens while you're planning for the future. John Lennon
- You're entitled to your own opinions. You are not entitled to your own facts. Daniel Patrick Moynihan
- On behalf of the people of Illinois and New York, I'd like to thank South Carolina for giving us Mark ("I've been unfaithful to my wife") Sanford. Finally, a governor who's weirder than Rod Blagojevich and less responsible than Eliot Spitzer. Really, we're extremely relieved. Gail Collins, New York Times 6/28/09
- Not all who wander are lost. J. R. R. Tolkien
- It's no sin to be poor... It's no great honor, either. Tevya, the Fiddler on the Roof
- Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest. Mark Twain
- Any smoothly functioning technology will have the appearence of magic. Arthur C. Clarke
- I intend to live forever. So far, so good. Steven Wright
- I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens. Woody Allen
- I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it. Groucho Marx
- If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name at a Swiss bank. Woody Allen
- Is it weird in here, or is it just me? Steven Wright
- My friend has a baby. I'm writing down all the noises the baby makes so later I can ask him what he meant. Steven Wright
- Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. Albert Einstein

It is almost as if the anti-gays believe that homosexuals have NO self-control. The fact that in the military, male-on-femals sexual attacks FAR outnumber male-on-male should indicate that the homophobes have nothing to fear (other than losing their prejudices)
