Favourite quote? In my sig:)

Although it was a toss-up between that and this one:
"Minds are like parachutes, they only operate when they are open".

"Government: If you refuse to pay unjust taxes, your property will be confiscated. If you attempt to defend your property, you will be arrested. If you resist arrest, you will be clubbed. If you defend yourself against clubbing, you will be shot dead. These procedures are known as the Rule of Law."
-Edward Abbey

Now i could think of a bunch of quotes, but only one comes to mind right now, and I have no idea who originally said it. Hell id be surprised if anyone knows where it came from, but I first heard it years and years ago, and have found myself repeating it often enough through the years since i first heard it.

"You can wish in one hand and crap* in the other; see which one fills up first".
- author unknown.



*crap, synonym for 4 letter explenative that starts with an S and ends with a T the forum mods don't like us to use.
** I've sometimes substituted "wish" for "Pray" when i thought it appropriate.

"Destiny's powerful hand has made the bed of my future, and it's up to me to lie in it. I am destined to be a superhero. To right wrongs, and to pound two-fisted justice into the hearts of evildoers everywhere. And you don't fight destiny. No sir. And, you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future, or you get all... scratchy." - the Tick

Actually "Wolfpack" ie the Novalogic game was never actually released on the C64 it made it's appearance on the Amiga!!!:haha:

There was a budget arcade/strategy game called "Wulfpack" on the C64 but I'm not sure it was ever released outside the UK.

You really want to know what I want? You really want to know the truth? I
want my people to reclaim their rightful place in the galaxy. I want to see
the Centauri stretch forth their hand again, and command the stars! I-I want
a rebirth of glory, a renaissance of power. I want to stop running through my
life like a man late for an appointment, afraid to– to look back, or to look
forward. I want us to be what we used to BE! I want…I want it all back, the
way that it was!
- Londo Mollari (Babylon 5)
