Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

The modern age has been characterized by a Promethean spirit, a restless energy that preys on speed records and shortcuts, unmindful of the past, uncaring of the future, existing only for the moment and the quick fix. The earthly rhythms that characterize a more pastoral way of life have been shunted aside to make room for the fast track of an urbanized existence. Lost in a sea of perpetual technological transition, modern man and woman find themselves increasingly alienated from the ecological choreography of the planet.: Jeremy Rifkin
No, I haven't read the New Testament, but I read the Old Testament and liked it very, very much.: One sheperd to another in a New Yorker cartoon
Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.: Honore de Balzac (1799 - 1850)
I like to think of us as Clearasil on the face of the nation. Jim Morrison would have said that if he was smart, but he's dead.: Lou Reed on his band
Life is either always a tight-rope or a featherbed. Give me a tight-rope.: Edith Wharton (1862 - 1937)
The Ten Commandments contain 297 words, the Bill of Rights 463 words, and Lincoln's Gettysburg Address 266 words. A recent federal directive regulating the price of cabbage contains 26,911 words.: According to an article in the New York Times
People may like what third-party candidates say, because often they are the only ones saying anything, but they usually won't vote for someone who doesn't have a chance. Since third-party candidates are not in the news, they are considered to be not really in the race; and since they are not in the race, this justifies treating them as if they are not news.: Michael Parenti
We had parties that Nero would have been ashamed to attend: Ronnie Hawkins
The most annoying trait of Right-Wing Outlaws in general is a lazy incuriosity about the real world. They know their lines, they're sure who the good guys and the bad guys are. Therefore they view the passing world as a kind of animated "Bartlett's Quotations" - that is, as handy source material with which to illustrate, rather than challenge, preconceived views.: James Fallows
Some luck lies in not getting what you thought you wanted but getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you known.: Garrison Keillor (1942 - )
