You can add my vote to MadGutts' and Simon's quotes about idiocy. In addition, here are some of my own favorites, in no particular order. (Author unknown unless otherwise specified.)

"People who think things are impossible should get out of the way of the people who are doing them."

"We're all mad here." -The Cheshire Cat "Alice in Wonderland"

"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man." -Geroge Bernard Shaw

"Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem."

"As for me, all I know is that I know nothing." -Socrates

"All that you have learned is in fact just learned and not necessarily true." (Currently in my sig, but added here as a permanent record.)

I'm sure there's more too, but that's all I can think of at the moment. :)

"An eye for an eye makes the World blind"

Author?

"Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,

Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time."

John Donne (The Sun Rising)

"An hundred years should go to praise

Thine eyes and on thy forehead gaze;

Two hundred to adore each breast,

But thirty thousand to the rest. "

Andrew Marvell (To His Coy Mistress)

"Here at least We shall be free; th’ Almighty hath not built Here for his envy, will not drive us hence: Here we may reign secure, and in my choice To reign is worth ambition though in Hell: Better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heav’n"

John Milton (Paradise Lost (Satan's Speech))

And so in the military----

Knowing the other and knowing oneself,

In one hundred battles no danger.

Not knowning the other and knowing oneself,

One victory for one loss.

Not knowing the other and not knowing oneself,

In every battle certain defeat.[Chapter 3] Sun Tzu
