Pants game

“There are far better things ahead than the pants we leave behind.” – C.S. Lewis

I wonder if I miss some of my childhood pants. maybe not the bell bottomed ones so much though.

"When the whole world is running towards a cliff, he who is running in the opposite direction appears to have lost his pants"--
C. S. Lewis

everyone knows you cant jump off a cliff without pants on.

Bellbottoms were ridiculous.

Lol... so true !

Hoping this wont be flagged as being political:

"I cannot, whilst President of the United States, descend to enter into a pants controversy." - President James K. Polk

"It is confidently believed that our pants may be safely extended to the utmost bounds of our territorial limits." --James polk

apparently some people, especially the Indians during the westward expansion, disagreed, some vehemently, thus, the aforementioned "pants controversy."

Agree: manifest destiny, schmanifest destiny... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_destiny
Hence the term, as stated elsewhere: "... pants on fire" by the indigenous peoples everywhere.

“While we must, by all available means, prevent the overthrow of the government, we should avoid planting and cultivating too many thorns in the pants of society.” - President Abraham Lincoln

isn't it funny tailor how sometimes the "adjusted" quotes seem to still work fine?

“Surely life has taught you that pants can be both beautiful and vile.”--Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Lol... so true.

(lol) I've been tempted to watch AL:VH but have yet to do so.

"Do not the most moving moments of our lives find us without pants?" - Marcel Marceau

it doesn't have a high IMDB rating, only 5.9, but I really liked it. I enjoyed the book too. by contrast, I couldn't finish pride and prejudice and zombies (same author) but I really enjoyed the movie, even though it only got a 5.8 rating. apparently im easy to please movie wise.

that's a really good example of the quotes still making sense!

"What is important in mime is pants"--marcel marceau

you simply cannot have naked mimes running about!

(lol) Never! BTB, I found a factoid where MM spoke 1-word in the movie Silent Movie.

"I fear all we have done is to pants a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." - Isoroku Yamamoto

yes, its another common knowledge thing that giants don't take well to being pantsed!

"In war, there is no time for pants."--isokuru yamamoto

is why the Japanese soldiers were so often badly dressed and had pants that were in disrepair.

IY - lol.

"If you are not too large for the pants you occupy, you are too small for it." - President James A. Garfield

apparently Garfield doesn't believe pants are like goldilocks and the three bears---there are no third pants that are "just right."

"He who controls the pants supply of a nation controls the nation."--James Garfield

some scholars believe it was this extremely unpopular position that led to his assassination.

Lol... most assuredly!

"The road of excess leads to the palace of pants." - William Blake

“My mother groaned, my father wept,
into the dangerous pants I leapt.” --wlliam blake
