And I Quote...

[QBall1970]

"... The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved..."​

- Confucius

As always... you're entitled to your viewpoint. I happen to disagree, but what's the point in debating this subject?

Here's a few quotes from other famous musicians that I respect:

"... When you strum a guitar you have everything - rhythm, bass, lead and melody."
- David Gilmore of Pink Floyd

"... When I heard "Pride and Joy" by Stevie Ray Vaughn on the radio, I just said "Hallelujah" .. he was just so good and strong and he would not be denied... he single handedly brought guitar and blues oriented music back to the marketplace."
- Dickey Betts of the Allman Brothers Band

"... Whatever your standing in life, the most important thing is behaving in ways that help other people. It's the same with music. I am a servant of the music ... and if I get caught up in ego, I'll lose everything .. it'll burn and that's a guarantee."
- Eric Clapton

Stevie Ray - wherever you are, may you rest in peace.

And I Quote...

"I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals. "
Sir Winston Churchill
:hatsoff:
And I Quote...again from Churchill

"Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events." :bowdown:

So, what do u know. History does repeat itself after all

-- Look upon the wrath of the enemy. If thou knowest only what it is to conquer, and knowest not what it is to be defeated, woe unto thee; it will fare ill with thee.

"Are you guys fucking kidding me? Alright then, I'll do it...but you assholes owe me big time!"

Colin Powell overheard talking to Rumsfeld in the UN Green Room, minutes before Powell's infamous presentation of evidence that Saddam was a real threat. At least Hitler condemned and accused a neighboring country... :tongue:

Love the American people, hate the posse misleading them, that's all.
