Some Quotes

So I've been collecting some quotes, and these are some of my favorites: (Feel free to add your own!)

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

"Politics is like drugs, alcohol, and gambling: just another addiction," Michael Goldman, political consultant.

"Prozac, schmozac! Haven't these people ever heard of a Martini??"

America has lost a great leader. Republicans of our generation were molded by President Reagan and his strong conservative beliefs....he will be missed greatly. ~Me

FEAR ME! I believe in: God, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, Keeping & Bearing Arms, the U.S. Constitution, the Unalienable Rights of All, Responsibility for One's Actions, Limited Taxes, Private Property, The Existence of Evil,
AND I VOTE!!!

"Our choice wasn't between a benign status quo and the bloodshed of war. It was between war and a graver threat. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Not our critics abroad. Not our political opponents. And certainly not a disingenuous film maker who would have us believe that Saddam's Iraq was an oasis of peace when in fact it was a place of indescribable cruelty, torture chambers, mass graves and prisons that destroyed the lives of the small children held inside their walls." -- Senator John McCain [on the Iraq War]
