Topic: A Self Evident Truth


Phil:  "A dictionary is actually a thesaurus."

Paul:  "Will you still feed me, will you still need me, when I'm sixty four."

William Shakespeare:  "That to be heaven Anne hath a way; She hath a way."

Robert Graves:  "A remarkable thing about Shakespeare is that he is really very good in spite of all the people who say he is very good."

Phil:  "I'm not a big fan of profanity. There are just too many commonly unused words in the dictionary.  To wit, psychobabble's co-dependency in denial augurs an extrasomatic mephitic paranoiac phenomenon in abeyance to eventuation or other superfluous loathsome malapropos denouements."

Arthur C. Clarke:  "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

Robert H Goddard:  It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow.

Howard Hughes:  “I'm not a paranoid deranged millionaire. Goddamit, I'm a billionaire.”

Richard Nixon: "Why would I want to talk to David Frost?"

Swifty Lazar: "I've got half a million dollars."

Richard Nixon: "Really?"

Phil:  "Knowledge is power.*
*subject to updates without notice"

Nicolas Copernicus:  "At rest, however, in the middle of everything is the sun."

Arthur C. Clarke:  "Every revolutionary idea seems to evoke three stages of reaction. They may be summed up by the phrases: 1- It's completely impossible. 2- It's possible, but it's not worth doing. 3- I said it was a good idea all along."

Nicolas Copernicus:  "Finally we shall place the Sun himself at the center of the Universe."

Phil:  "I'm not a gynecologist, but I would look into that."

Will Rogers:  "It isn't what we don't know that gives us trouble, it's what we know that ain't so."

Phil:  "Intelligent life on Earth?  I don't know!"

Albert Einstein:  "If we knew what we were doing it wouldn't be called research, would it?"

Yogi Berra:  "You can observe a lot just by watching."

Dr. Carl Sagan: “Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”

Mark Twain: “It is wiser to find out than to suppose”

Arthur C Clarke:  "Perhaps, as some wit remarked, the best proof that there is Intelligent Life in Outer Space is the fact it hasn't come here. Well, it can't hide forever - one day we will overhear it."

Phil:  "Honesty?  Tell me a secret you don't want me to know.  That's honesty!"
