Not exactly 'cool' qutoes, but some really top shelf-buffoon from Ye Olde Orange one-

(Part 1)

-"What a crowd, what a turnout." —Trump to victims and survivors of Hurricane Harvey in Texas, August 29, 2017

-'I think I am actually humble. I think I’m much more humble than you would understand.'

-'My father gave me a small loan of a million dollars.'

-(On Puerto Rico) 'This is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water.'

-Well, the one thing I would say–and I say this to people–I never realized how big it was. Everything’s so (unintelligible) like, you know, the orders are so massive. I was talking to–Number one, there’s great responsibility. When it came time to, as an example, send out the 59 missiles, the Tomahawks in Syria, I’m saying to myself, “You know, this is more than just like, 79 (sic) missiles. This is death that’s involved,” because people could have been killed!

-The financial cost of everything is so massive, every agency. This is thousands of times bigger, the United States, than the biggest company in the world. … It’s massive! And every agency is, like, bigger than any company. So, you know, I really just see the bigness of it all.

“For in politics, as in religion, it is equally absurd to aim at making proselytes by fire and sword. Heresies in either can rarely be cured by persecution.”

― Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers

Dealing weed and riding motorcycles; both will cause a person to be constantly alert as to others' intentions or movements... if they wish to remain in the game.

-Nothing- has made me a more defensive driver, anticipating others' moves, like riding a motorcycle cross-country. Been doing it since I was 16, though my last cross-country ride was nearly 18 years ago now.. maybe 16-17; can't recall.

Given any horizon on the highway, asking one's self in re. to those present in that horizon's view, "What's the goofiest move one of these folks might make?" it's alarming how often the speculative answer pre-defines reality to come.

“Wilderness, wilderness...We scarcely know what we mean by the term, though the sound of it draws all whose nerves and emotions have not been irreparably stunned, deadened, numbed by the caterwauling of commerce, the sweating scramble for profit and domination.”
― Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire


"The only difference between a cult and a religion is the amount of real estate they own."
