Lol, these are some quotes from a song I have on a mix CD of mine (I think I got it from Erik...)

"Our kids are crazy
they can't sit still
Let's put 'em in the army
and teach 'em to kill."

"The crime rates goin'up!
What do ya do?
I have a gun
And so do you.
You shoot me
And I shoot you.
You shoot me
And I shoot you."


Lol, its great.

I like the first 2, but that last 2 I'm not so sure about...

I think a person should live outside of society for part of their life, because it helps them to learn more about themselves, and less about what they're "supposed" to be. Of course, that may be my whole anti-culture or whatnot thing...

As for the second one... I dunno... I believe it to some extent, but not at the same time. A major contention I have with the present system is that need for sacrafice in order to reach the "greater good", which is national suprimacy and power, etc. Therefore, I don't think that sacraficeing your life is a very good idea, as it uses some of the former administrations tactics etc, not to mention the whole dying for the cause thing is slightly over-rated and just another glorious war propoganda bullshit tactic.
At the same time, I can easily see myself sacraficing my life for the prospect of my loved ones having the opportunity to live in such a society... And, not to sound selfish, but there are very very few things I'm willing to die for so for me to think "Yeah, ok I guess I would" is rather extreme for me...

Make sense?

On Aristotle he was just stating that the greatest achievement is human self-sufficient onto himself, which defines complete freedom.

As for MLKJ's quote, it is extreme. He was after all a martyr, I think of it as more of a reminder too know what you really value in life and be prepared to defend it, be it for you, family or others.

Yes i love that one, i cant beleave i didnt remember it
an interesting one i came across in the book im studying (montana 194 cool .
"rules are made for the rulemakers"
This quote was probably intended to be diferent to the way i interpreted because the "persona" seems to think the law needs to be enforced with as much strength as posible.

"Finding that no religionis based on facts and cannot therefore be true, I began to reflect what must be the condition of mankind trained from infancy to believe in error."
"The only miracle in Christianity is how someone could swallow that s**t."
"Its interesting the speculate how it developed that in two of the most anti-feminist instituitions, the church and the law court, the men are wearing the dresses."
"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword" (Jesus, Mathew 10:34)

haha, I just saw this tonight when I was looking for that Jello Biafra link in the other thread, and I found this quote:

"I don't see why people are so upset about cloning sheep. American television networks have been doing that to their audiences for years. I'm hoping that the cloning apparatus will be taken away from scientists and corporations and handed over to the darker side of the art world. Imagine the gene splicing that could be done by Survival Research Labs. And anything a sheep farmer could do with cloning, Gwar could do far better. I also think it might be the next step for rebellious teenagers. Maybe the way to shock Mom with her tummy tuck and breast implants and Dad with his pectoral implants is to sneak down to the doctor and have devil horns implanted in your head. Maybe a long Clockwork Orange nose, too. Now that even Republican secretaries have piercings, it's the next step. After that comes creative gene splicing. Imagine people getting inspired by old movies and deciding to graft Rosie Grier's head onto their own shoulders."
