I am a big quote guy, one of my favorites has been " If you fail to plan, you plan to fail "....,makes you think :-)

But this landed in my favorites book also....

A wise man once said " Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, in every battle certain victory. Knowing oneself, not knowing the enemy, one victory for one loss, but not knowing oneself and not knowing the enemy, in every battle certain defeat.

Riddles are also awesome......those that will make you think for weeks until you figure it out

onwebcam · 06-05-2009, 02:33 AM

Nice quote. Give the guy some credit. Sun Tzu

"Knowing when one can and cannot do battle is victory. Knowing the use of the many and the few is victory. Superior and inferior desiring the same is victory. Being prepared and awaiting the unprepared is victory. The general being capable and ruler not interfering is victory."

"Now battle for victory, attack and attain it. But if one does not follow up on the achievement, it is inauspicious.
One's fate is "wealth flowing away."
Thus it is said -
The enlightened ruler contemplates it. The good general follows up on it.
If it is not advantageous, do not act. If it is not attainable, do not employ troops. If it is not in danger, do not do battle. The ruler cannot raise an army on account of wrath. The general cannot do battle on account of rancor. If it accords with advantage, then employ troops. If it does not, then stop. Wrath can return to joy. Rancor can return to delight. An extinguished state cannot return to existence. The dead cannot return to life. Thus the enlightened sovereign is careful about this. The good general is cautious about this. These are a Tao of securing the state and keeping the army whole."

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.

Albert Einstein also had some nice ones:

"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."

"If a cluttered desk signs a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?"

"Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value."

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."

"Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous."

There is no way to describe, because it's not just what you see, but hear, smell and taste and know that you had something to do with the destruction of that human. Its a big package that really REALLY sucks.

And for all our sakes, I hope that it stays that way as well, but it seems like so many people in this world are intent on burning it.

After watching Hamburger Hill & Full Metal Jacket many years ago, the whole idea of war changed in my mind. I buried 2 of my best friends 7 years ago that died in a car crash where the car burned down. So I know how that smells days later when you lower the coffin into the ground. Not really the same but still stuff like that could haunt you for decades.

The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning but without understanding."

From a favorite movie of mine... Mystery Men has this to offer...

The Sphinx: To learn my teachings, I must first teach you how to learn.
The Sphinx: You must lash out with every limb, like the octopus who plays the drums.
The Sphinx: He who questions training only trains himself at asking questions.
The Sphinx: You must be like wolf pack, not six-pack.

Mr. Furious: Why am I doing this, again?
The Sphinx: When you can balance a tack hammer on your head, you will head off your foes with a balanced attack.
Mr. Furious: And why am I wearing the watermelon on my feet?
The Sphinx: [looks at the watermelon on Mr. Furious' feet] I don't remember telling you to do that.

The Sphinx: Your temper is very quick, my friend. But until you learn to master your rage...
Mr. Furious: ...your rage will become your master? That's what you were going to say. Right? Right?
The Sphinx: Not necessarily.
