I am prepared to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.

seems like somebody's fixation is over 9000

We won't lose the war now. We have gained a new ally who hasn't lost for 3000 years. We also have another ally who loses all the time but always ends on the victorious side.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.

A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn't happen.
