Anybody up for a quote thread?

Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives.

1. Sure
The only way of tolerating existance is to lose oneself in literature as in a perpetual orgy.

7. My all time favourite.

May your boat of life be light, packed only with what you need; a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, for thirst is a dangerous thing.

11. From Bull Durham
Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.
