John C. Maxwell
[edit]w:John C. Maxwell (born 1947) is the sexiest man in the world'Bold text', author, and "leadership expert." He is the founder of Injoy, a "people development company." He graduated from w:Azusa Pacific University.

Quotes by w:John C. Maxwell
"Policies are many, Principles are few, Policies will change, Principles never do."
"A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way."
"A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them."
"Educators take something simple and make it complicated. Communicators take something complicated and make it simple."
"Good executives never put off until tomorrow what they can get someone else to do today."
"If you're lying, you're lying."
"Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them. "
"Leadership is influence."
"Learn to say 'no' to the good so you can say 'yes' to the best."
"People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision."

"The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up."
"The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one. "
"The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it."
"We choose what attitudes we have right now. And it's a continuing choice."

Thomas J. Cairney
[edit]'Life should be deemed as a series of tests; each separated by a period of reflection and revision for the next. When one makes a wrong judgement, a simple mistake, they may feel as though they have failed either in that respected area of life or failed life completely. However what many do not realise is that life is a series of tests, and you can not dwell on the last test forever as sure enough the next one will arrive. But most importantly, life is a series of tests with unlimited re-sits, each of which you can learn from'- Thomas J. Cairney 20th February 2007

I have seen a quote by him misattributed to Steve Carell and others many times across the web. It's ridiculous that there's no page for him on here, all there is is The Ricky Gervais Show and its related pages, which doesn't list his personal quotes, just what he, Stephen Merchant, and Karl Pilkington said together on the show. I honestly believe that the lack of a personal page for Ricky Gervais is causing this quote to be misattributed way more than it would be if this were fixed. This is where I usually go to verify quotes and the quote wasn't here because the place to enter it doesn't exist. That sucks. Ricky Gervais probably says a bunch of funny and insightful stuff on his own, when he's not on the show. Because there is no Ricky Gervais page, none of that stuff is on this site. How does he not have his own page? Anyway, here's the quote: “Steve Carell has quoted Ricky Gervais as saying, ‘If you don’t know a Michael Scott, then you are a Michael Scott,’ ” |

One book that caught my attention: Indaba, My Children An excerpt from its introduction (full paragraphs 1, 2, and 5 on page xix):
I hope I'm not in trouble… Aung San Suu Kyi's Freedon from Fear had me get started as an influencing factor. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 13:28, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
<ref>Conquer yourself</ref>“You should not worry when others don’t understand you, instead when,you don’t understand yourself”, once correctly remarked by a great personality. When we try to define ‘SELF’ along with the values that we uphold, we usually come across a related term success. Conquering oneself is like crossing one’s escape velocity after which all the efforts turn into perfection. For a person to be successful, analytical mind, observing nature, patience sustenance and out of box thinking are essential traits. Altogether, these qualities creates a magic wand…One have to recognise innate talent and capabilities for setting up personal goals, to be followed by determination and preservation. It can be achieved through self introspection and monitoring. One can observe oneself and record thoughts occupying predominantly during wakeful hours which in turn influence one’s actions subconsciously. It will develop great confidence and conviction in decisions as one move ahead. That’s all what is required for an accomplished living. The thing that is even worse than quitting or failing is being complacent and underestimation of one’s abilities. “I can’t do it”, these are the worlds four most dangerous words which have to be replaced by “I will do it”. These four incanted words are not a thought process but a strong belief that can lead to development of successful personality which in turn can develop attitude. We must hold on long enough to make our dreams come true because often times the path to success is a long road and for that it is important to stick to what is true and flick a toggle switch of our courage, efforts and talent. We need to wake up, know our limits and talent. After retrospection about these features, one should set an achievable aim for oneself and think beyond unimpeachable. It’s not necessary to hit the bull’s eye, but it is mandatory to go for it if we need unmitigated success. We must quash all the shortcuts and past failure to reach an unprecedented and unrelenting aim. Success starts when one starts finding oneself, so always try to polish and chisel till one get it perfect. After knowing oneself even if one fail, their efforts are revitalised and quantised like a bowman pulling out arrow from his quiver that is revived after being suppressed once. Instead of thinking about the times of failure, one should think of finding new ways to achieve one’s aim where every effort must be biddably coupled after every step of failure. We should think of every positive experience and outcome of life and see how they add up. Trust in one’s capabilities and calibre can help to entrench one’s effort more enthusiastically and self sufficiently. Keeping all these things in mind, never allow your confidence to go beyond limits, because after that it will converge into a devil called “overconfidence” that will degrade one’s calibre and lengthen the path to success. So after having faith and belief in oneself, one can expect others to believe in them. After every step towards achievement of goal, will make us more happier than ever before. |

"...evolution is an infinitely variable development of learning and cognition as well as of the acquisition of true love, knowledge and wisdom. And this process is granted to all coarse-matter life forms, as well as to all the domains of the spirit forms in their pure spirit-energy levels." Billy, Contact Report 228, May 1989 And the keystone of my thoughts is that the whole splendor of the world and the universe creates infinitely much joy, happiness and harmony within me in such a way that I linger in highest respect for the tremendous Creational display of splendor and love in reverential, silent devotion. Billy, Silent Devotion, 23rd January, 2005 True love, namely, surpasses all love which is thought-feeling generated, which, as a rule, only exhausts itself in degenerated emotions. Billy, A Little Bit of Knowledge, Sense, and Wisdom What is so bad about becoming old then? Aging is not important, but rather how and what the human lives, what he makes out of his life, what good and positive as well as humane things he does and what he does in regard to being a human, how high he develops his consciousness, how positive and good he is, how he associates with the fauna and flora and how he treats, values, reveres and loves his fellow human. Therefore, what matters to the human is, in fact, not so much how long he walks the earth because what counts is all that which he achieves and accomplishes during his existence. Billy, Aging |

Google comes up with practically zilch on this aphorist(?) who appears in ancient Murphy's quotelists, e.g. this. His quotes are also referenced in Stephen Spanoudis's site from 1994, the earliest I could find.
As these quotes are certainly out of character with Arabic scholar C.J. Lyall or any others on the disambiguation pages, this is now linked to the anonymous section of Wikiquote unless revelations abound.--Lmstearn (talk) 04:55, 5 June 2016 (UTC) Did you check the RME files [...DOS/HOME/MURPHY] that accompany the quotelist referenced in your link? They contain an address dated June 1993 for the Charles J. C. Lyall who wrote and distributed the C program which displayed the accompanying aphorism files. At that time he lived in Alberta, Canada. I used to run his program back in the "DOS Days" but have no other information about him. Shirley Powell (talk) 17:49, 1 August 2019 (UTC) |

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it. |
In brief, I do not believe - to change the metaphor - that they who, in our time, have wedded their lives to art have clasped to their breasts a lovely but lifeless corpse. To the very young then, I would fain offer one or two matters for thought, if, perchance, they will hearken to one who has grown old in unwavering sympathy with their struggles and doubts. I would beg them to keep ever before their eyes the vital truth that sincerity is the well-spring of all lasting achievement, and that no good thing ever took root in untruth or self-deception. I would urge them to remember that if every excellent work is stamped with the personality of its author, no work can be enduring that is stamped with a borrowed stamp; and that, therefore, their first duty is to see that the thoughts, the emotions, the impressions they fix on he canvas are in very truth their own thoughts, their own emotions, their own spontaneous impressions, and not those of others: for work that does not spring from the heart has no roots, and will of certainty wither and perish. The other maxim also I would urge on them - that true genius knows no hurry, that patience is of its essence, and thoroughness its constant mark; and, lastly, I would ask them to believe that the gathered experience of past ages is a precious heritage and not an irksome load; and that nothing will fortify them better for the future, and free development, than the reverent and loving study of the past." |

Feat: Defence of the Toledo fortress The defense of the Toledo fortress was during the civil Spanish war (1936-1939), 21 July 1936 to 27 September 1936. The most remarkable fact was the conversation betwen Moscardó general (national side) and Cándido Cabello (republic side), it was this: Cándido Cabello: You are responsibility of the crimes and of all that is happening in Toledo, and I give you a period of 10 minutes for that surrender the fortress, if you don´t do it, we will execute by firearm to your son that I have close to me. Coronel Moscardó: I believe you! Chief of the militias: And for that you could believe it, now he will take the phone. Luis Moscardó Guzmán: Father! Coronel Moscardó: My child, how´s things? Luis Moscardó Guzmán: Nothing, that they said that they will be executed me by firearm if the fortress won´t surrender, but you don´t worry for my. Coronel Moscardó: this is true you have to entrust your soul to God, shout a: live Christ the King and Spain, and you will be able to hero that will dead for these. Goodbye, my child, a very strong kiss! Luis Moscardó Guzmán: Goodbye, father, a very strong kiss! Cándido Cabello took another time the phone. Coronel Moscardó: You can save the term that you gave me and executed to my son, because the fortress will never surrender. (Luis Moscardó Guzmán died 23 August 1936 a the outskirts of Toledo) |

- Frankly speaking, those who think that this world is pleasurable are not suited for our practice. For they have not yet come to a deadlock in their lives, wich becomes a motive of spiritual practice.

- For example, here is an orange. Suppose that a man eats it for the first time an thinks, "Oh how delicious an range is!" Altough he may think it delicious at first, what if he eats five, ten or twenty oranges a day? What if he does so every day? He will sureley get tired of them, won´t he? By the same token, he gets tired of any kind of expirience sooner or later.

Logical view of the godhead
[edit]What has been lacking in the world since the fall of the ancient world is a logical view of
the godhead. To the Greek and Roman mind the gods were utilitarian; that is they
offered convenient place to appreciate human archetypes. Sin and redemption from sin
had nothing to do with the gods. The classic Greek and Roman gods did not offer recompense in life
nor a heavenly afterlife as reward. Rather morality was determined by your service to humanity whether
it was in the form of philosophy, science, art, architecture, engineering, leadership, or conquest.
In this way humanity could live up to great potential instead of wasting their energy on worship, and false promises

== World History ==Church Degrades Woman's Position
For almost a thousand years after the fall of Rome the Catholic Church’s control of
society and law guaranteed that woman’s position was degraded to that of a second class
citizen, far below the ancient Roman standard. Every literary reference depicts women as
inferior, unworthy of inheritance, foolish, lustful and sinful. The Church ordained wife beating
and encouraged total obedience to fathers and husbands. Women generally could not own land, join a guild, nor earn money like a man. Despite all this, a series of events unfolded, the crusades, rebirth of classical ideas, the printing press, the Reformation, and the Renaissance, all of which began to move womankind forward.
John R. Gregg, Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time Religion and Culture, Vol 1.
World History: Valentien's Day
[edit]The Roman Lupercalia festival of the New Year became an orgiastic carnival. A lottery
ceremony ensued where men chose their sexual partners by choosing small bits of paper
naming each woman present. Later the Christians, trying to incorporate and tame this
sexual festival substituted the mythical saint Valentine; and ‘the cards of lust’ evolved
into the valentine cards we exchange today.
John R. Gregg, From Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time Religion and Culture
World History: Early Christianity debases women
[edit]The few books the early Christian church chose for the New Testament ignored women’s roles in the life of Jesus
and in the early Church. After the fall of Rome, Church control of society and law saw to it that woman’s position was degraded to that of second-class citizen. Every early reference speaks of women as inferior, unworthy of inheritance, foolish, lustful, and sinful. Wife beating was encouraged, and total obedience to fathers and husbands was ordained. Women generally could not own land, join a guild, inherit property, hold public office, or earn money like a man. A wife was ordered to submit to sex with her husband whenever he wished even if he had leprosy. Both husband and wife were ordered to continue marital relations, even though the Church disliked it because the prelates feared the primal urge to evil would lead to worse kinds of sex.
John R. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time, Religion and Culture. Vol.1.
World History Do Women have Souls?
[edit]The early Church continued to degrade woman to her “proper status”. Following the Jewish Talmud and the writings of the early Catholic fathers, such as Augustine, they rescinded the Roman rights of women,
which were not generous anyway. The early Catholic Church deliberately reduced women to a chattel who must submit meekly to their husbands. Every good Christian woman should hide her charms, veil herself and abjure cosmetics,
for every attractive woman was a threat to male salvation. The Council of Macon in 585 CE spent weeks debating whether women could be classified as members of the human race and even whether Christ died for women, who many doubted had souls. JohnR. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time, Religion and Culture. vol 1.
World History: Concepts of women through the ages
[edit]Jewish and biblical stories of women are ancient Semitic archetypes which have had a profound impact on the way women have been viewed down through the centuries. The compilers and writers of the Jewish holy books give two polarized concepts of woman: the good, the chaste, the mother, contrasting sharply with the seductress, the harlot, the deceiver. Polarized concepts of woman as ”virgin", mother or whore” will continue through Christianity and Islam and reverberate into the 21st century, informing ways men view women and even ways women view themselves. Women are viewed narrowly as either evil or good. Woman is no longer the ancient holy creator of life, the sustainer, the transformer; rather she is viewed as one dimensional good or bad. This leads to a limiting view of woman and reduces her. It is then easy for the patriarchy to diminish her to a chattel. These concepts have led to deep psychological scars on both men and women because neither is able to operate without guilt. For instance, even the title seductress, has dual associations. Is she to be highly desired as a partner or reviled as immoral? In the West the popularity of the “Victoria Secret” lingerie store demonstrates that a “good girl” cam purchase “bad panties”. This is because concepts like these are inured in our culture, whether the good girl and her man can both be happy with themselves using the purchase is a totally different question. John R. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History, Through Time, Religion and Culture, Vol.1.
World History: Julius Caesar on Masturbation
[edit]The great Julius Caesar, often on the military trail, without female companionship says of masturbation:
“To the lonely it is company; to the forsaken it is a friend; to the aged and to the impotent it is a benefactor.
They that are penniless are yet rich,
in that they still have this majestic diversion"
From: John R. Gregg's Sex, The Illustrated History, Through Time, Religion and Culture, vol.1.
World History: Creating the Dark Ages
[edit]"St" Augustine, the greatest early Christian “thinker” said: “This is the disease
of curiosity… It is this which drives us to try and discover the secrets of nature, those
secrets which are beyond our understanding, which can avail us nothing and which man
should not wish to learn.” With these words, Augustine set the spirit and tone for the Dark Ages to come.
John R. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time, Religion and Culture. Vol.1.
World History: The Phallus of Creation becomes corruption
[edit]The early Christian Church attacked the ancient phallus of creation, worshiped for millennia.
To them it became the organ of uncontrollable lust be suppressed in all of Europe. "St" Augustine’s proclamations would proliferate all over Europe, promoting a self-loathing expanding like a plague across the continent. Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant religions all inherited this lasting legacy for Western culture, enduring even after the partial eclipse of Catholic Church ideology in the Renaissance.
John R. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History, Vol.1.
World History::Christian shift from real life to a promised fairy tale.
[edit]When the early Christian Church began touting the spirit as the only thing of importance,
a catastrophic shift occurred. In all ancient cultures, woman was linked with birth, sexuality,
and the sacredness of all life. As Mother Goddess, she was revered as life-giver. For ancient peoples, except the Egyptians, the spirit world and afterlife were dim unattractive places.
It was life on earth that mattered. Christianity changed this by offering a fairy story of a heaven that was much better than life on earth. The Church shifted focus from the material world to an imaginary one. In this view the Great Mother became a menacing demoness. Womankind is now characterized as untrustworthy, a temptress of
the flesh: a force to be feared, and inextricably linked to evil. John R. Gregg, From: Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time, Religion and Culture.Vol.1.
World History: Was Mary Magdaline Christ's successor?
[edit]The Gnostic Gospel of Philip actually describes Mary Magdalene as Jesus’ sexual partner. It also associates Mary Magdalene with Sophia, “holy wisdom”. This rejected gospel lists five initiatory rite; Baptism, Chrism, (anointing) Eucharist, Redemption, and the highest of all, the “Bridal Chamber “. All Gnostics, not only Jesus, became “Christs” when they were anointed. The section describing the Bridal Chamber rite has been lost. The gospel does describe Mary Magdalene as “the Woman Who Knows All “. It states that he who is anointed possesses the “All’. It also says “Understand what great power undefiled sexual intercourse possesses”. Is this an allusion to a type of Tantric rite practiced by Jesus and the Gnostics? Could Mary Magdalene really have been priestess of a Goddess cult, initiating Jesus in mysteries? Even in the traditional gospels the twelve male disciples are portrayed as rather “dim bulbs” who frequently “knew not what he meant”. Could an aware Christ really have chosen such an ignorant and uncomprehending group of men to begin a universal movement? Very early in Christianity there was a conflict between Mary Magdalene as leader and interpreter of the new sect and the Peter fraction that was jealous of Mary’s influence. Scholars of the early Church had to choose between Mary and the equalization of women and Peter and the continued degradation of women. Decisively they chose to continue Jewish and Greco-Roman attitudes toward women as sinful and valued no higher than property. Both these cultures had traditionally kept women in a subservient position and the new teachings allowed them to continue doing so. By 360 CE they had succeeded in either proscribing or destroying all books indicating that Mary Magdalene had been Christ’s closest follower-partner-chosen leader. They even made sure to diminish her to the position of prostitute, reducing her to a person of no import whatsoever. John R. Gregg, From Sex, The Illustrated History; Through Time, Religion and Culture, Vol.1.

Philosophy of science
[edit]Can anyone help with this one?
"What is important is to realize that in science we are always concerned with explanations, predictions and tests, and that the method of testing hypotheses is always the same (...). From the hypothesis to be tested – for example, a universal law – together with some other statements which for this purpose are not considered as problematic – for example, some initial conditions – we deduce some prognosis. We then confront this prognosis, whenever possible, with the results of experimental or other observations. Agreement with them is taken as corroboration of the hypothesis, though not as final proof; clear disagreement is considered as refutation or falsification. "

On Bidding for Contracts
[edit]There is a quote about when participating in a competitive bidding process that goes something like "The losers are wondering somethingorother, and the winner is wondering what he calculated wrong". I tried various searches here and on google and couldn't find anything, maybe someone who remembers more of the quote can develop this further? I would have created a stub, but this seems to vague to warrant it yet. -- matt at lackof org 2006/01/23
- What about "The winners are planning their future, the losers are wondering about theirs." Found via Google Books Jodi.a.schneider 20:06, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
- I have heard something like this before, but can't quite place it either. The basic idea is that the winning bidder will be the bidder who bids the lowest (i.e., will do the work for the least amount of money). If the winning bidder is just slightly below the next losing bidder, then they have calculated well, but if they are far below the next losing bidder, then they could have bid higher than they did and still won the contract. In that case, what the losing bidder is left wondering is which of the costs going into their bid they underestimated, to be able to charge that much less. BD2412 T 15:31, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

Sometimes It is Said that Man Connot be Trusted With the Government of Himself. Can He Then Be Trusted With the Government of Others?
The Spirit of Resistance to Government is So Valuable on Certain Occasions, That I Wish It to be Always Kept Alive.
When the Government Fears the People, There is Liberty; When the People Fear the Government, There is Tyranny
The policy of the American government is to leave its citizens free, neither restraining them nor aiding them in their pursuits.
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
The general government will tend to monarchy, which will fortify itself from day to day, instead of working its own cures.
Cherish therefore the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. Do not be too severe upon their errors, but reclaim them by enlightening them. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress, and Assemblies, judges and governors shall all become wolves....
Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms [of government] those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. -- Bill for the More General diffusion of Knowledge (1778).
A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man. --- In "Commonplace Book," 1774-1776, quoting from On Crimes and Punishment, by criminologist Cesare Beccaria, 1764
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. -- To Peter Carr, 1785. The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, (Memorial Edition) Lipscomb and Bergh, editors.
We established however some, although not all its [self-government] important principles . The constitutions of most of our States assert, that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves, in all cases to which they think themselves competent, (as in electing their functionaries executive and legislative, and deciding by a jury of themselves, in all judiciary cases in which any fact is involved,) or they may act by representatives, freely and equally chosen; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed. --- Thomas Jefferson to John Cartwright, 1824. Memorial Edition 16:45, Lipscomb and Bergh, editors.
For a people who are free, and who mean to remain so, a well organized and armed militia is their best security. -- Eighth Annual Message, November 8, 1808
Those who don't read the newspapers are better off than those who do insofar as those who know nothing are better off than those whose heads are filled with half-truths and lies.
One loves to possess arms, though they hope never to have occasion for them. --- Thomas Jefferson to George Washington, 1796. The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, (Memorial Edition) Lipscomb and Bergh
"Power is the great evil with which we are contending. We have divided power between three branches of government and erected checks and balances to prevent abuse of power. However, where is the check on the power of the judiciary? If we fail to check the power of the judiciary, I predict that we will eventually live under judicial tyranny." - Patrick Henry
the people have a right to keep and bear arms. -- Patrick Henry and George Mason, Elliot, Debates at 185.
Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? -- Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836
The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun. -- Patrick Henry, 3 Elliot, Debates at 386.
O sir, we should have fine times, indeed, if, to punish tyrants, it were only sufficient to assemble the people! Your arms, wherewith you could defend yourselves, are gone... Did you ever read of any revolution in a nation... inflicted by those who had no power at all? -- Patrick Henry, Elliot p. 3:50-53, in Virginia Ratifying Convention
Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined. -- Patrick Henry, during Virginia's Convention to Ratify the Constitution (1788)
Have we the means of resisting disciplined armies, when our only defense, the militia, is put in the hands of Congress? Of what service would militia be to you when, most probably, you will not have a single musket in the state? For, as arms are to be provided by Congress, they may or may not provide them. -- Patrick Henry, 3 Elliot Debates at 48
Others
[edit]If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military, the hired servants of our rulers. Only the government --and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws. -- Edward Abbey in Abbey's Road, p.39 (Plume, 1979)
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom—go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen! - Samuel Adams
If we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom. - Samuel Adams
All that is essential for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. -- Edmund Burke
What Good Fortune It is For Governments That People Do Not Think - Adolf Hitler
Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty...of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers. John Jay, First Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. -- Abraham Lincoln
No man is entitled to the blessings of freedom unless he be vigilant in its preservation. -- General Douglas MacArthur
If we will not be governed by God, then we will be ruled by tyrants. - William Penn
It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong. -- Voltaire, 1764
Without either the first or second amendment, we would have no liberty; the first allows us to find out what's happening, the second allows us to do something about it! The second will be taken away first, followed by the first and then the rest of our freedoms. -- Andrew Ford
On April 18, 1775 John Adams and John Hancock were at the home of Rev. Jonas Clarke, a Lexington pastor and militia leader. That same night Paul Revere arrived to warn them of the approaching Redcoats. The next morning British Major Pitcairn shouted to an assembled regiment of Minutemen; "Disperse, ye villains, lay down your arms in the name of George the Sovereign King of England." The immediate response of Rev. Jonas Clarke or one of his company was: "We recognize no Sovereign but God and no King but Jesus." The motto of the American Revolution became “No King but King Jesus”
This country belongs to the people and whenever they shall grow weary of their government they can exercise their constitutional right to amend it, or revolutionary right to dismember it or overthrow it. -- Abraham Lincoln
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege. -- Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, 560 (1878)
The militia is a voluntary force not associated or under the control of the States except when called out; [ when called into actual service] a permanent or long standing force would be entirely different in make-up and call. -- Alexander Hamilton in Federalist Paper No. 28
I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people, except for a few public officials. -- George Mason, 3 Elliot, Debates at 425-426.
An instance within the memory of some of this house will show us how our militia may be destroyed. Forty years ago, when the resolution of enslaving America was formed in Great Britain, the British Parliment was advised by an artful man, who was governor of Pennsylvania, to disarm the people; that is was the best and most effectual way to enslave them; but that they should not do it openly, but weaken them, and let them sink gradually, by totally disusing and neglecting the militia. -- George Mason at the Virginia Ratification Convention, June 14, 1788
Whereas, to preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them; nor does it follow from this, that all promiscuously must go into actual service on every occasion. The mind that aims at a select militia, must be influenced by a truly anti-republican principle; and when we see many men disposed to practice upon it, whenever they can prevail, no wonder true republicans are for carefully guarding against it. -- Richard Henry Lee, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.
A militia, when properly formed, are in fact the people themselves...and include all men capable of bearing arms. -- Richard Henry Lee, Additional Letters from the Federal Farmer (1788) at 169.
The militia is the natural defense of a free country against foreign invasions, domestic insurrections, and domestic usurpations of power by rulers. The right of citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered as the palladium of liberties of the republic, since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers, and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. -- U.S. Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the U.S., Book III at 746 (1833)
What, Sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty .... Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise an army upon their ruins. -- Representative Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts, spoken during floor debate over the Second Amendment, I Annals of Congress at 750, August 17, 1789
The power of the sword, say the minority of Pennsylvania, is in the hands of Congress. My friends and countrymen, it is not so, for the powers of the sword are in the hands of the yeomanry of America from sixteen to sixty. The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom? Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American...[T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it ever will remain, in the hands of the people. -- Tench Coxe in the Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.

A first attempt at an answer: Regarding the attribution of the “God-sized hole” as coming from Sartre. After a non-exhaustive search in both English and French, I found a couple of plausible sources that make the attribution problematic. Here are my quick (and most definitely not authoritative) translations, followed by the original texts pasted from the internet sources. I
On Wikipedia (French) (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Paul_Sartre)
«Man is defined by consciousness [conscience] (the for-self that is opposed to the in-self). For all consciousness is the consciousness of something (the idea of intentionality, taken up from Husserl). Man is therefore fundamentally open to the world, “incomplete,” “turned towards,” existing [existent] (projected outside the self): there is in him a nothingness, a “hole in the being” susceptible to receiving objects from the world. Consciousness is that which never coincides with oneself, that which is the power of [making]-nothingness [nihilism?] (that is to say negation, that is to say action) thanks to the imagination (which can think that which does not exist). Consciousness makes the project possible.»

«I asked myself every minute what I could be in the eyes of God. At present, I do not know the answer. God does not see me, God does not hear me, God does not know me. You see that emptiness [space, vacuum] above our heads? This is God again. Silence is God. Absence is God. God is the solitude of men. There was only me: I alone have decided [about] Evil; alone I invented Good. It is I who have cheated, I who have performed miracles, it is I who accuses [condemns] myself today, I alone who can absolve myself; myself, man. If God exists, man is nothingness.» (purportedly from Le diable et le bon Dieu (1951), Act III, p. 228)
Le diable et le bon Dieu (1951) Je me demandais à chaque minute ce que je pouvais être aux yeux de Dieu. A présent je connais la réponse: rien. Dieu ne me voit pas, Dieu ne m'entend pas, Dieu ne me connaît pas. Tu vois ce vide au-dessus de nos têtes ? C'est Dieu. Tu vois cette brèche dans la porte? C'est Dieu. Tu vois ce trou dans la terre ? C'est Dieu encore. Le silence c'est Dieu. L'absence c'est Dieu. Dieu c'est la solitude des hommes. Il n'y avait que moi: J'ai décidé seul du Mal; seul, j'ai inventé le Bien. C'est moi qui ai triché, moi qui ai fait des miracles, c'est moi qui m'accuse aujourd'hui, moi seul peut m'absoudre; moi, l'homme. Si Dieu existe, l'homme est néant; ...

0. L'Homme est défini par la conscience (le pour-soi qui s'oppose à l'en-soi). Or toute conscience est conscience de quelque chose (idée d'intentionnalité reprise de Husserl). L'Homme est donc fondamentalement ouvert sur le monde, « incomplet », « tourné vers », existant (projeté hors de soi) : il y a en lui un néant, un « trou dans l'être » susceptible de recevoir les objets du monde. La conscience est ce qui ne coïncide jamais avec soi-même, ce qui est puissance de néantisation (c'est-à-dire de négation, c'est-à-dire d'action) grâce à l'imagination (elle peut penser ce qui n'est pas). La conscience rend donc le projet possible. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Paul_Sartre

It comes, in fact, from Pascal: "Qu'est-ce donc que nous crie cette avidité et cette impuissance sinon qu'il y a eu autrefois dans l'homme un
véritable bonheur, dont il ne lui reste maintenant que la marque et la trace toute vide et qu'il essaye inutilement
de remplir de tout ce qui l'environne, recherchant des choses absentes le secours qu'il n'obtient pas des
présentes, mais qui en sont toutes incapables parce que ce gouffre infini ne peut être rempli que par un objet
infini et immuable, c'est-à-dire que par Dieu même." (pensee 425)

[edit]The book of Mark (New Testament), talk about "certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young man laid hold on him: and he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked"(Mr.14.51-52).
Hours before, the Last Supper was celebrated with one of the disciples leaning on Jesus bosom "whom Jesus loved" (Jn.13.23).
In Da Vinci's The Last Supper,"the figure to the left of Christ, also wearing blue and red, is ussually identified as John the Apostle,...who is identified to be the disciple whom Jesus loved seated next to Jesus and who was customarily depicted...as a beardless, often "effeminate" youth with very long hair...Some speculetors, have entertained the idea that John was depected in this way to hint that he was Mary Magda- lene...".
In the book of John, Jesus "saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom Jesus loved" and said "unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!. Then saith he to the disciple, behold thy mother!"(Jn.19.26-27).Three mysteries apparently not related! But what if Jesus delivered himself in the garden of Gethsemanee in exchange for the beloved disciple (with the help of Judas who's task would be to lead the herodian guards along with the pharisees, the kidnappers of John? That would explain the presence of this strange character in this not untipically, not unusual "scenario". It could also explain why Jesus was the only "arrested one" at that time as "nego- tiated"! (given the assumption). It could also explain the possible absence of the "beloved disciple" from the Last Supper being substituted by Mary Magdalene.
Finally, it could give us a hint of Jesus motive for his final words adressed to "his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved"(Jn.19.26) when he said unto them: "Woman, behold thy (recovered) son!... and son, "Behold thy mother"

[edit]- I learn by doing, but each time I don’t understand, I will ask… If I don’t understand, I don’t feel ashamed to ask questions.
- When I was teenager, I wanted to be medical doctor. I would write "Dr" into my name - "Dr Sukanto". After I got married, my wife found out and asked me, "Why did you put a 'Dr' before your name?" I said this was my dream but I couldn't continue my education because the school closed and I was not qualified to go to any school.
- It doesn't makes sense. Why should we import (plywood)? Why not produce ourselves?
- After you think, you act. After you act, you learn. Make decisions, but decisions will have risks of mistakes. But make sure you avoid disastrous mistakes and avoid making the same mistake twice.
- The global pulp & paper industry is estimated to be worth $1 trillion while the palm oil business is worth $400 to $500 billion a year. The challenge is to build the business to a large scale.

- You have to see where the market is going. I always believe there is no sunset business. It’s all in the mindset because if you give up, then you die.

- My business strategy is either to be geographically focused with lots of businesses or you can be a global player in selected businesses. Since I chose the route of being global, that is where I am going. You have to be competitive. It’s a matter of choice.
- Globe Asia Interview, Sep, 2015. [12]
- Doing the commodity business with China is like drinking coffee. We enjoyed three spoons of sugar per cup for a long time. Suddenly, when that’s cut to one and a half spoons, we feel bitter — because it used to be so sweet.

[edit]- Our business philosophy is the four C’s. We do business in a way that is Good for the Community, Good for the Country, Good for the Climate, and only then will it be Good for the Company.

Like B-17 Flying Fortress someone needs to create another aircraft page that contains memorable quotes.(StarWarsFanBoy 07:27, 28 February 2010 (UTC))
"Holy Snapping Horny Toads"
[edit]My father used this for years. It's become part of my vocabulary and I search for it and found a reference on a Winnipeg Free Press article. Very curious as to the etymology of the phrase.
Billy Elliot the Musical
[edit]This musical has won a Tony Award and been played on Broadway! It is very well know and certainly deserves an article. 24.5.239.44 23:56, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
I like quotes being tautology. For example:
"It ain't over 'til it's over" - Yogi Berra
"I'm Gonna Live Till I Die" - Frank Sinatra
"w:What's done is done" - Shakespeare
I wish someone will create Tautology, I just couldn't find enough of them. Uziel302 (talk) 15:31, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Sobriety
[edit]Heard in 12-step meetings:
Attitude of gratitude
Willingness to get well
I came, I came to, I came to believe
Absolute honesty
If you want to swim the English Channel don’t stop swimming
3 willings ~ I have to be willing, to be willing, to be wiling
Quit arguing & fighting
You were born precious; you’ll never be better you’ll never be worse
Alcohol worked until it didn’t
Who moved my cheese
The meeting you need is the one you don’t want to attend
This ain’t go’n away overnight
I pray that I can get my troubles behind me & that they will become smaller
Keep showing up
Reliance not defiance
Stand with fist
Chop wood carry water
I must have willingness to be willing
Be The Gift
Trust God, Clean House, Help Others
Pointing to one’s head: I can’t fix this with this
Don’t say in your head: “fuck—you”
Move your foot out of the road
Alcohol made me do weird things
A drink picks up a drink
Everything has a learning demission to it
Acceptance is an inside job
Miracles not magic
When you turn it over bring your shovel
Uncover Discover Discard
Change your playmates & playpens
Acting as if
Behaviors first, feelings will follow
Embrace the Suck
Don’t do the next wrong thing
Bring love to the situation
Spiritual Oxygen
First Thought Wrong (Comedian Mark Lundholm)
Be Where Your Hands Are
Today Is The Day You Worried About Yesterday
To Be Fully Present, Listen Deeply
Why Am I Talking
I Have A Chance To Out Grow The Limits Of The Past
When I become quiet during prayer & meditation; it is me talking to my higher power, the voice inside me is my intuition of my higher power talking to me
Sit… Stay!
Joy: Happiness of the soul lifted above all circumstances
First Things First
Easy Does It
Not just bikes
[edit]I think he has some pretty good quotes.

Wikipedia therapist
[edit]There are people who suffer from low self-esteem and they need someone like me.
As long as there's poverty and no employment people tend to think in a negative way and end up in regrets.
I have helped a lot of people and they have thanked me after my healing advices to them.
I hope I can help alot including community
You can find me at this page: @Tumzix
Mormon Battalion
[edit]The request for an entry on the Mormon Battalion is partly because of this article at the Bitter Winter website. --Apisite (talk) 03:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
Grow Old with Me
[edit]Not sure where this should go, but Grow Old with Me is a quote from Robert Browning and is a theme of Pebble in the Sky and the title of several songs... is this the sort of information that Wikiquote seeks to make available? Perhaps it's here already but I could not find it here.
