The trouble with having an open mind, of course,
is that people will insist on coming along and
trying to put things in it.
- Terry Pratchett

'And he goes around killing people?' said Mort.
He shook his head. 'THERE'S NO JUSTICE.'
Death sighed. NO, he said, THERE'S JUST ME.
- Mort, Terry Pratchett

Every person has the choice between
Good and Evil. Choose Good, and stand
against those who would choose Evil.
- Friedrich Kellner

"If you don't like something, change it. If you can't
change it, change your attitude. Don't complain."
- Maya Angelou

"Better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought
a fool than to open it an remove all doubt."
- Chinese proverb (? maybe Voltaire instead)

A new idea is delicate.
It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn;
it can be stabbed to death by a joke
or worried to death by a frown on the
right person's brow.
- Charles Brower
