"The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ takes the slums out of the people and then they take themselves out of the slums. Christ changes men, who then changes their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature." ~ Ezra Taft Benson
neo, that was really funny!!!

"It is better to die on your feet than live on your knees."
I don't know who said that, though.
Every man has reminiscences which he would not tell to everyone, but only to his friends. He has other matters in his mind which he would not reveal even to his friends, but only to himself, and that in secret. But there are other things which a man is afraid to tell even to himself, and every decent man has a number of such things stored away in his mind. The more decent he is, the greater the number of such things in his mind.

It was said by Emiliano Zapata, a Mexican revolutionary (Chiapas). Do you know who was he? But this sentence is attributed also to Che Guevara (he's well-known, I think you know who was he) and to Dolores Ibarruri ("La Pasionaria", who was a revolutionary woman that fought against the Fascism in Civil War, in Spain (1936-1939) ). I don't know if you know who was she. She's not very well-known outside Spain or here.Originally Posted by Matt the Man

So I think it was originally from Emiliano Zapata, but the other two people said this as well. It's a nice sentence and also were the people who said that.So now you know who was the person who said it!!

The valiant never taste of death but once."

look at the end of the page
At thunder and tempest, At the world's coldheartedness,
During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.
To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.

I read that! cheeky, isn't it?
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

Heike Marie;
Humanity i love you because you
are perpetually putting the secret of
life in your pants and forgetting
it's there and sitting down
on it
[ee cummings]
Good one, good choice, Heike Marie! If there were a contest to determine who contributed the most with quotable epigrams and aphorisms, Wilde would win it easily.
I don't have a favourite quote. Had a real hard time choosing from a vast array of them to post here... At the moment, this is one of my favourites:
"Every exit is an entrance somewhere else" - Tom Stoppard
As well as the one written below this sentence
"Now is the very witching time of night when churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out contagion to this world" - Hamlet
