Martin Luther:  Hier steh' ich, ich kann nicht anders.  (Here I stand, I can do no other.)  Said at the Diet of Worms.  It's not funny until you realise that Luther suffered from very serious haemorrhoids.

To quote a very famous and outspoken atheist:

"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unplesant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomeniacle, sado-masochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."

I read that in "the God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins, and when my jaw came back up off the floor, I laughed so hard it hurt.

"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."

NUTS!

It is by the fortune of God that, in this country, we have three benefits: freedom of speech, freedom of thought, and the wisdom never to use either.

After all this talk of anarchy I thought I'd add one of Napoleon's quotes that I stumbled across:

"Among those who dislike oppression are many who like to oppress."

Anarchism is for mature people...

That is a really good one.
Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.
