[Juggernaut 11,054]

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

 

If ye love wealth better than liberty,

the tranquility of servitude

better than the animating contest of freedom,

go home from us in peace.

We ask not your counsels or your arms.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.

May your chains set lightly upon you,

and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

How can God reward a man greatly unless he was wounded him deeply.

[Mullet Man 2,114]

How can God reward a man greatly unless he was wounded him deeply.

I'm reminded of battered wife syndrome, by that quote.

[XD45 7,124]

 

No, they won't see this coming...

-Malcom Reynolds-

 

Yeah, well what you plan and what actually happens ain't ever exactly been similar!

-Jayne Cobb-

Malcom and Jayne do have a way with words.  Now I gotta watch the whole series again.  And the movie.

 

 

I've always loved these quotes, and they're conveniently packaged together.

 

I've killed women and children. I've killed everything that walks or crawls at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you done to Ned.

 

It's a helluva thing, killin' a man. You take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have.

 

We all got it comin' kid.

 

Well, he should have armed himself if he's going to decorate his saloon with my friend.

 

You better bury Ned right; and don't go cuttin' up... nor otherwise harm no whores, or I'll come back and kill every one of you sons-a-bitches.

 

All right now, I'm comin' out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna kill him. Any sumbitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife. All his friends. Burn his damn house down.

 

 

I suppose you know, Bob, if I ever see you again I'm just going to start shooting and figure it was self-defense.

 

Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed.  A man who will keep his head and not get rattled under fire, like as not, he'll kill ya. It ain't so easy to shoot a man anyhow, especially if the son-of-a-bitch is shootin' back at you.

 

Alright Gentlemen. He's got one barrel left. And when he fires that, take out your pistols and shoot him down like the mangy scoundrel he is!

 

I don't deserve this...to die like this. I was building a house

Deserve's got nothin' to do with it.

I'll see you in hell William Munny.

....Yeah...

Quoting W. Tozer reminds you of battered wife syndrome?

[XD45 7,124]

"Goddamnit, I'd piss on a spark plug if I thought it'd do any good!"

 

"The sheriff is near?"

 

"It's merely a flesh wound!"

 

And of course...

 

"AK-47.  When you absolutely positively have to kill every motherfucker in the room."

 

And one for Juggs.

 

"I'm the Juggernaught, Bitch!"

 

And for Wolfie.

Yeah, Unforgiven was full of great quotes.

 

The Schofield Kid: That was the first one.

Will Munny: First one what?

The Schofield Kid: First one I ever killed.

Will Munny: Yeah?

The Schofield Kid: You know how I said I shot five men? It weren't true. That Mexican that come at me with a knife, I just busted his leg with a shovel. I didn't kill him or nothing, neither.

Will Munny: Well, you sure killed the hell outta that fella today.

 

 

Goodfellas was good too.

Tyler Durden: You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.

 

Tyler Durden: Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.

 

Narrator: [while brutally beating Angel Face] I felt like putting a bullet between the eyes of every Panda that wouldn't screw to save its species. I wanted to open the dump valves on oil tankers and smother all the French beaches I'd never see. I wanted to breathe smoke.

 

Tyler Durden: Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.

In honor of Halloween...  Zombie Thread! 

 

 

January 27, 1838
   At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth in their military chests; with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in the trial of a thousand years.
   At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

 

Abraham Lincoln
