Quelques Citations Aléatoires

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who are hungry and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

- Dwight Eisenhower WWII US military leader, later President

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

- Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759

Fighting for peace is like f*cking for celibacy.

- Unknown wall somewhere

Ainsi pourquoi le nom?

As I have been asked numerous times about my name, I suppose I ought to give the reason, if only to save me time in the future. The truth is that the desk that my computer sits on is grey. Its made of two grey steel filing cabinets with a bloody great big steel top linking the two together. Actually to be fair the top is covered in black plastic, but I'm sure you will all agree that calling myself "GrisAvecLeBureauSupérieurEnPlastiqueNoir" is rather silly

1One thing I do want to point out though is that the correct spelling of my nickname is BureauGris not Bureau Gris. The lack of a space is vitally important2. OK I can't remember why it is vitally important, I just know that it issmiley - smiley2Acidbath tends to call me "Desky" which is OK from him as he is a local boy.
