Everything that came out of Oscar Wilde's mouth.

"America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. "

"I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying. "

"when people show you who they are, believe them" -Maya Angelou

"For the first half of geological time our ancestors were bacteria." - Richard Dawkins

and phish....

I feed from the bottom, you feed from the top
I live upon morsels you happen to drop
And coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup
If nothing comes down then I'm forced to swim up
On the way upwards, the colors come back
But all along the bottom is blue, grey, and black
The darkness is cold and perception goes wrong
And the night seems to go on incredibly long
So I ask you why if I'm swimming by,
Don't you see anything you'd like to try?

I've always been a fan of the highly quotable Indira Gandhi:

All my games were political games; I was, like Joan of Arc, perpetually being burned at the stake.

If I die a violent death, as some fear and a few are plotting, I know that the violence will be in the thought and the action of the assassins, not in my dying.

There exists no politician in India daring enough to attempt to explain to the masses that cows can be eaten.

People tend to forget their duties but remember their rights.

when someone blushes, doesn't that mean "yes"?

You are the music while the music lasts-T.S Eliot

There is no such thing as a homosexual or a heterosexual person. There are only homo- or heterosexual acts. Most people are a mixture of impulses if not practices-Gore Vidal

Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet-Plato

In order to know virtue, we must first acquaint ourselves with vice-Marquis De Sade

She did what she felt she had to. I was commenting primarily on her quotability, not her political prowess, but I don't hate the woman. And she'll always be respected in India for doing the absolute most that can be asked of any Indian statesperson: winning a war against Pakistan.

Nehru's daughter, Oxford dropout, led India several times, harsh on rebellious minorities, led India to victory over Pakistan when Bangladesh was breaking away, was shot by her bodyguard. Unlucky. Children were Sanjay (died in plane crash) and Rajiv (assassinated also)... married a Zoroastrian, which is fucking awesome. I think.

Depends on your point of view. Are you a barely reconstituted ideologue? From which side of the spectrum? Lefties dislike her, I think. Sikhs dislike her, usually. I think she did good and bad. The best thing was obviously inspiring Morrissey's lyrics, which I am certain I was, like Joan of Arc, perpetually being burned at the stake must have done. Something on Maladjusted? Rings a bell...

i think i might be right-wing. or at least that's what the only quiz told me. but just with the big things.

if left-wing people hate her i'm assuming she was, like, all fascist & shit? ilike an indian hitler or something? 'm actually surprised i've never heard of her. the middle east/asia was my thing for awhile.

sorry for borting in my own thread guys. but questions need answers~

She wasn't a fascist. But she had strongwoman tendencies and they don't like that. She was more from the "a strong woman is needed to hold together a country of nearly a billion people, with rival religions and shit" school.

this is my favourite quote ever ... sorry it's a bit long from the velveteen rabbit:

"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."

"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"

"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."

and this one by phillip pullman, also:

Thou shall not is easily forgotten but Once upon a time lasts forever.
