And there was thunder, thunder
over Thunder Road
Thunder was his engine
and white lightnin' was his load
Moonshine, moonshine
for the Devil's thirst
the G-men swore they'd get him
but the devil got him first
Charles Hankey

- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
