--High Flight, John Gillespie Magee Jr.
quote:Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds -- and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of -- wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew.
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
The guy has quite an interesting history.
--Monstrous Regiment excerpt!!!!
quote:It was a pamphlet. It was headed "From the Mothers of Borogravia!!" The mothers of Borogravia were very definite about wanting to send their sons off to war Against the Zlobenian Aggressor!! and used a great many exclamation points to say so. And this was odd, because the mothers in the town had not seemed keen on the idea of their sons going off to war, and positively tried to drag them back. Several copies of the pamphlet seemed to have reached every home, even so. It was very patriotic. That is, it talked about killing foreigners.
by Terry Pratchett, as I'm sure you knew.
Yrs, the Opera Ghost
--The Female Of The Species, Rudyard Kipling
quote:When the Himalayan peasant meets the he-bear in his pride,
He shouts to scare the monster, who will often turn aside.
But the she-bear thus accosted rends the peasant tooth and nail.
For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.
Having read this famous poem, I have only one complaint,
An you thought it would be "Sexist!", take a powder, for it ain't.
'Tis the meter, 'tis the meter--from verse five it goes astray--
And misogyny's excusable, but lack of scansion? Nay!
--Pyramids, Terry Pratchett
quote:'Tsort wasn't built in a day,' he mumbled.
'We do not believe we laid the specifications for that job,' said Dios.
"Hopefully."
--from lyrics (apparently official) to Virgin Steele, House of Atreus Act I
quote:[ALL:]
AH, AH, AH, AH, AHA AH AH AH, ETC.
So how about them topless towers, eh?
That's from Dark Lyrics, isn't it? :p The fans sometimes add something, but considering it's David Dionysus DeFeis, I wouldn't be surprised.
(...he uses multiple exclamation marks and capitalises the first alphabets of words he's emphasising...)
Oh yes, he does. *archivist's sigh and grin* DarkLyrics tent to be typed up from the manuals, from what I've seen. It's a cool site. *has lots of edited saved pages from there*

It all started with Mutty Foo - sorry, Müttly Föe. And then...
quote:Suitov: I luvs my Mutty Foo.
Jaina Jade: Oh my fucking God! *cracks up*
Suitov: He's a very deep character. He has to be, to carry so much responsibility for the world and the Chaos Emeralds and the pyramids and also being the destined one to stop Sauron.
Jaina Jade: Oh Jesus! *dies*
Jaina Jade: ...damn you. http://www.deadjournal.com/users/msree/119013.html
Suitov: And he has special mutated midichlorians, but don't tell anyone, it's a secret plot point.
Jaina Jade: *dies again*
Suitov: He had to have them injected when he was fighting Smith.
Jaina Jade: *redies*
Suitov: There was no other way to save Peter Parker and Kurt Wagner from Voldemort.
Jaina Jade: *can't breathe - laughing too hard*
Suitov: That's before he travelled back in time to cure Geordi LaForge's blindness.
Jaina Jade: It keeps growing! *Ree redies*
Suitov: Which is also when he obtained his soul-bonded shapeshifting Tribble.
Suitov: I'm writing another story about his twin sister.
Jaina Jade: Good gravy.
Suitov: In the third one they find each other again when the world is in great peril, and fight the great Cthulhu with Drizzt Do'Urden, and they have to cross the streams, and they nearly die.
Jaina Jade: *eyepop* Cthulhu! *dies*
Eh, so, it made all of us giggle. *g*
*Chokes on water.*
What can I say, I just like causing spontaneous death and choking. Serpentisortia!
(It's pronounced Moitly Fur, of course. It's not his real name, but he had to change it or the world would have known Darth Maul was his cousin but they fell out when Mutty surpassed him in skill. His real name is twenty words long and its discovery will be a significant plot point. It will also explain why his eyes change colour, and other such loose ends.)
I couldn't decide.

--Lazarus Long, "Time Enough for Love" (Robert A. Heinlein)
quote:Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human. At best he is a tolerable subhuman who has learned to wear shoes, bathe and not make messes in the house.
--Charles R. Darwin
quote:A mathematician is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat which isn't there.
--Albert Einstein
quote:As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.
Today's quote is here. The poem, particularly.
--http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_tape
quote:The "cutting of red tape" is a popular promise of politicians, especially those on the right of the political spectrum. A number of legislatures have pondered or passed Red Tape Reduction Acts including Ontario, California, and Missouri. The Ontario Progressive Conservative Party government even created a permanent Red Tape Commission that must review all new regulations.
Am I the only one to see the irony there? *cackle*
