Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence.: Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
...no man of genuinely superior intelligence has ever been an actor. Even supposing a young man of appreciable mental powers to be lured upon the stage, as philosophers are occasionally lured into bordellos, his mind would be inevitably and almost immediately destroyed by the gaudy nonsense issuing from his mouth every night.: H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
Mayonnaise: One of the sauces which serve the French in place of a state religion.: Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914), The Devil's Dictionary
An apology for the devil: it must be remembered that we have heard one side of the case. God has written all the books.: Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902)
God created sex. Priests created marriage.: Voltaire (1694 - 1778)
The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals and 362 admonishments to heterosexuals. That doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals. It's just that they need more supervision.: Lynn Lavner - as published in PFLAG
It is [the] belief in absolutes, I would hazard, that is the great enemy today of the life of the mind. This may seem a rash proposition. The fashion of the time is to denounce relativism as the root of all evil. But history suggests that the damage done to humanity by the relativist is far less than the damage done by the absolutist - by the fellow who, as Mr. Dooley once put it, "does what he thinks th' Lord wud do if He only knew th' facts in th' case.": Arthur Schlesinger Jr.
.... You ask, What is our policy? I will say; "It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy." You ask, What is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory - victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.: Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965), 1940, in his first address as the newly appointed Prime Minister.
Take the diplomacy out of war and the thing would fall flat in a week.: Will Rogers (1879 - 1935)
To conquer the enemy without resorting to war is the most desirable. The highest form of generalship is to conquer the enemy by strategy.: Ancient Chinese Warlord
