Great storms announce themselves with a simple breeze, Captain, and a single rebel spark can ignite the fires of rebellion.

ROTFL UWW!!! :D

I love this one:
Cleese: "I need a license for my pet fish 'eric'"
Palin: "There's no such thing as a fish license"
Cleese: "Yes there is! I got one for my pet cat 'eric' as well"
Palin: "There's no such thing as a cat license either"
Cleese: "Well, what's this then?"
Palin: "That's a dog license with the word 'dog' crossed out and 'cat' written in in crayon"
CLeese: "So? I have to protect myself from the Cat Detector Van. It can pick up a purr at 500 yards!"
Palin: 'You're a looney"
...

When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.

A good many young writers make the mistake of enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope, big enough for the manuscript to come back in. This is too much of a temptation to the editor.
--Ring Lardner


Oh, so that's what I was doing wrong! :)

Laughing at our mistakes can lengthen our own life. Laughing at someone else's can shorten it.

Hold your fire,
Keep it burning bright
Hold the flame 'til the dream ignites
A spirit with a vision is a dream
With a mission

I hear their passionate music
Read the words that touch my heart
I gaze at their feverish pictures
The secrets that set them apart

When I feel the powerful visions
Their fire has made alive
I wish I had that instinct
I wish I had that drive

Spirits fly on dangerous missions
Imaginations on fire
Focused high on soaring ambitions
Consumed in a single desire

In the grip of a nameless possession
A slave to the drive of obsession
A spirit with a vision is a dream
With a mission.

I watch their images flicker
Bringing light to a lifeless screen
I walk through their beautiful buildings
And I wish I had their dreams
But dreams don't need to have motion
To keep their spark alive
Obsession has to have action
Pride turns on the drive

It's cold comfort
To the ones without it
To know how they struggled
How they suffered about it
If their lives were exotic and strange
They would likely have gladly exchanged them
For something a little more plain
Maybe something a little more sane

We each pay a fabulous price
For our visions of paradise
But a spirit with a vision is a dream
With a mission.

Rush, "Mission"
