And not let the self sink down
For the self's only friend is the self
And the self is the self's one enemy."

edit: because I cant read, apparently.
A loving dedication to the message board on the internet that is
'the one'
'one'...
HTGTH:
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely, and have more objective people than anywhere else on earth.
Rough winds do shake the boards with darling posters that dont shut up
And in the summer, I shall check you thrice everyday.
Sometimes too hot the eyes of The Admin shine down upon us
And oft' his blond complexion dimm'd due to flame wars and insults.
But it will never fade, nor shall Death wander in its shade!
So long as Gunners can breathe and have fingers to type (never mind a brain)
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
ok, ok so it's not in iambic pentameter and it aint 14 lines long, sheesh. I tried.
Without further ado, here is my contribution to the quote thread:
The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.
--? H. L. Mencken

That was very clever and thoughtful of you random.
Here's a quote that I really like:

Okay...this is paraphrased, but it's a good lesson on lying with numbers and statistics:
"If the temperature goes up ten degrees between 7 am and 9 am, you could extrapolate that everyone will be burned to a crisp by 8 pm. That's if you ignore the rotation of the earth.
Extrapolation is the last refuge of a groundless argument."

A kiss, when all is said, what is it?
A rosy dot placed on the "i" in loving;
'Tis a secret told to the mouth instead of to the ear.

The decision to kiss for the first time is the
most crucial in any love story. It changes the
relationship of two people much more strongly
than even the final surrender; because this kiss
already has within it that surrender.

Appearances can be deceiving - I can look like this sometimes:
A feeling of absurdity.
The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth.
At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.

Give me a kiss, add to that kiss a score;
Then to that twenty, add a hundred more:
A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million.
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Let's kiss afresh, as when we first begun.
- Robert Herrick

To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?"
