Here are my picks:

"How do I keep some big mean mother hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind? The Answer is a gun. And if that don't work, Use more gun."
-The Engineer, Team Fortress 2


"Not by speeches and decisions of majorities will the greatest problems of the time be decided - that was the mistake of 1848-49 - but by iron and blood."-Otto Von Bismarck

The rights of neutrality will only be respected when they are defended by an adequate power. A nation, despicable by its weakness, forfeits even the privilege of being neutral.

Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 11, 1787

Every nation ought to endeavor to possess within itself all the essentials of a national supply- Alexander Hamilton

In the jungle town where the sun beats down to the rage of man and beast
The English garb of the English sahib mearly gets a bit more creased.
In Bangkok at 12 o'clock they foam at the mouth and run
But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun.

"We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
~Tennyson

"TANSTAAFL" (There an'it no such thing as a free lunch) RE: entropy. "You can't win, you can't break even and you can't quit the game"Dum Vivimus, Vivamus" (While we are alive, let uas live!) "Taxes are never levied for the benifit of the taxed". All, or most of them are from books by Robert A. Heinlein. For some more good one go to "The Notebooks of Lazerous Long".
