Glad to have inspired this one Peter... Great lines!
I think one-liners are often better than a degree in philosphy!
"Stamp out and eradicate superfluous redundancy!" - someone I can't remember :)
Great quotes... esp. the last one!
"Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved."
:) Excellent choices!
Wise and interesting quotes.
Good quotes!
Nice work.
