(That the arrested man has blasphemed against God is proof that he does not know Him. That he has insulted me, I forgive him. But since he has insulted a member of a noble council, he must therefore be punished as an example and shall be brought to Spandau Prison for half an hour.")
- Frederick the Great
"The cemeteries are full of indispensable men."
- Charles de Gaulle

Then Samson said,
"With a donkey's jawbone
I have made donkeys of them.
With a donkey's jawbone
I have killed a thousand men."
Read "donkey" as "ass" and it sounds much better.
That Bible!

A few:
"The Way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death." - Musashi Miyamoto, Go Rin No Sho
"Do not fail
to learn from
the pure voice of an ever-flowing mountain stream
splashing over the rocks."
- Ueshiba Morihei, The Art of Peace
"Life is like unto a long journey with a heavy burden. Let thy step be slow and steady, that thou stumble not. Persuade thyself that imperfection and inconvenience are the natural lot of mortals, and there will be no room for discontent, neither for despair. When ambitious desires arise in thy heart, recall the days of extremity thou has past through. Forbearance is the root of quietness and assurance forever. Look upon the wrath of the enemy. If thou knowest only what it is to conquer, and knowest not what it is like to be defeated, woe unto thee; it will fare ill with thee. Find fault with thyself rather than with others."
- Tokugawa Ieyasu
Elie Wiesel:
- “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
- “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
Unknown sources:
- "Everyday all people judge all other people. The question is whether we judge wisely."
- "When you have wisdom that another person knows that he needs, you give it freely. But when the other person doesn't yet know that he needs your wisdom, you keep it to yourself. Food only looks good to a hungry man."
- "... you don't grow up until you stop worrying about other people's purposes or lack of them and find the purposes you believe in for yourself."
And of course,
"**** you, you rotting stench of a ****." - anonymous
