QUOTES & QUIPS...

[HERNE]

Hoping this new thread will bring forth a few pages of members personal favourites.

I'll kick off with an absolute 'ripper' from the then Governor of California... Ronald Reagan.

"The young man speaking looked like Tarzan, walked like Jane and smelt like Cheetah."

"Of course I am minimising my Tax, and if anyone in this country isn't minimising their tax they want their head read, Because as a government I can tell you your not spending it that well that we should be donating extra."

The great Kerry Packer before a senate hearing.

Here's an apt borrowing from the words of Patrick Henry "Julius Caeser had his Brutus, Charles the First his Cromwell, and Vladimir Putin may profit by their example."

[HERNE]

Treason! Lol.

[Pitty]

From one of my all time favourite actors.

“I'd like to know why well-educated idiots keep apologizing for lazy and complaining people who think the world owes them a living.”
― John Wayne

“Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.”
― John Wayne

“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”
― John Wayne

[HERNE]

Another couple of ‘gems’ from Ron…

”Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world… But the Marines don’t have that problem.”

“If you can’t make them see the light… Make them feel the heat.”

[Sparta]

That's a good one Herne. If you can't make them see the light, let them feel the heat.
Even the Marine one is great.

It's not about how hard you can get hit. It's about how you get hit and keep getting hit and moving forward.

[The Cripple]

My all time favourite, though apparently an urban myth

Bessie Braddock: Winston, you are drunk, and what’s more you are disgustingly drunk.

Winston Churchill: Bessie, my dear, you are ugly, and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly.

[TwoFourThree]

British MP : (in the middle of an long winded address to parliament) The Prime Minister (Churchill) is asleep.

P M. (opening one eye), No, but I wish to Christ I was

[Just Shooting]

A real cowboy has saddle rash.

I wasn't a politician. I had no - no - even thought of being a politician. So, nobody even talked to me about the war. Nobody said, should we do the war, should we not? It's not like now, where every day you're being asked questions about things.
