It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.

Can't find the one I was trying to remember, but here are a couple:

Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.
Plato
Greek author & philosopher in Athens (427 BC - 347 BC)

There will be no end to the troubles of states, or of humanity itself, till philosophers become kings in this world, or till those we now call kings and rulers really and truly become philosophers, and political power and philosophy thus come into the same hands.
Plato

man will never be free till the last king is strangled with the intestines of the last priest -diderot
only when the last tree is gone and the last fish has been caught will we realise that we cannot eat money- native american proverb

It is good that war is so terrible, else we would grow fond of it.

Whenever you have an efficient government you have a dictatorship.
- Harry S Truman

[Havok]

Two of my favorites:

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." ~ John Stuart Mill (1868)

"By the help of history, a young man may, in some measure, acquire the experience of old age. In reading what has been done, he is apprised of what he has to do; the more he is informed of what is past, the better he will know how to conduct himself for the future." -Lord Chesterfield

[Lazerus]

" Today young men on acid realize all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration..
That we are all one consicouness experiencing itself subjectively.
There is no such thing as death,
Life is only a dream and we are just an imagination of ourselves"
Maynard James Keenan

[Mel'Kaven]

"Forest have you found Jesus?"

"Well, I didnt' know we was sup'osed to be lookin' for him, sir."

[Moleman]

One of my all time favorite quotes from John Cleese, I can relate!





“It's not the despair, I can take the despair. It's the hope I can't stand.”

[Caia]

Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.
--George Carlin

[MegaMan]

"Naturally, the common people don't want war, neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship. ... voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."
-Hermann Goering

[gothicorpunk]

“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!” ...rocky!
