h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Life and love are life and love,
a bunch of violets is a bunch of
violets, and to drag in the idea of
a point is to ruin everything.
Live and let live, love and let love,
flower and fade, and follow the natural
curve, which flows on, pointless.


A quote from D.H.Lawrence

"I can wait a long, long time before I hear another love song..."

The Sisters of Mercy, 'Some Kind of Stranger'

Another good quote is

He who knows others is
wise.
He who knows himself is
enlightened.

Tao te Ching

"Women are the greatest torture devise for man ever created."

peace.

Women were born wthout a
sense of humour...so they
could love men and not
laugh at them

Hear Hear!!! That they are The KID

Women were born without a sense of logic...
So men can love them, but not expect them
to behave like men.

I forget who said it as well, but as I recall she married last year, an event that gave us the headline in the Grauniad of "Fish Gets Bicycle".

Whoops, failed to turn the page.

<<"Women are the greatest torture devise for man ever created.">>

Not in my case-
but dull, unimaginative misogony is something I would rate fairly highly as torturous.

"Women are the poetic incarnation of hope"

"There's nothing like revenge for getting back at people."

"Never insult a man unless you've walked 100m in his shoes, coz then ur 100m away and you've got his shoes"

"Rugby is played by men with odd shaped balls" (Sorry old, but I love it)

"Quoting one is plagiarism. Quoting many is research."

"My husband and I divorced over religious differences. He thought he was God, and I didn't."

It takes your enemy and your friend, working together, to hurt you to the heart; the one to slander you, and the other to get the news to you.


Mark Twain

What a man says drunk he has thought sober. -Flemish proverb

War is God's way of teaching Americans geography. -Ambrose Bierce, writer (1842-1914)

one fitting for our times...

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."

-Theodore Roosevelt

>>Oh really? Well, seeing how "Favorite" is quicker and easier and nicer than "Favourite", I don't really see the problem...<<

Frankly I'm shocked. You Americans come in here, you take our women and our jobs, and then you have the nerve to take the 'u' out of our words.

...and here are some quotes:


"Not playing to win is like sleeping with your sister: Sure she's a great piece of skirt with a blouseful of goodies, but it's just illegal."

- Charlie Sheen, Hot Shots


"Pathetic?! He's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?"

- Gareth, The Office (I doubt this is word perfect but you get the gist)

"Paris is less pretty when not in spring,
but spring is not less pretty when not in Paris"

That was a great poke at us Americans there Wesley. Liked the Charlie Sheen quote. My favourite I'd Say, Well Cherio. The KID.

Pompous women to Winston Churchill : Mr.Churchill, you are drunk!

Winston Churchill to pompous women: Madam, you are ugly, but in the morning I shall be sober.

Okay, who wants to say that one for the fourth time then
