They said it

Remember the old stickybuffalo site, and how at one point it featured random selections from a database of quotes which someone had found interesting for one reason or another? Well, it did. (Unless history and/or my memory are misbehaving again.)

I’ve got my own quotes database, or at any rate a text file. I’m a big digital saver… I guess it’s better than hoarding physcal objects, unless one really wants to be on TV… anyway. Here are some selections to ornament stickybuffalo for a few days:

“I am going to sue the ass of those guys at Motorola. At the last minute, they f*cked us up. They told us we would have 1Ghz G4′s, and days before Macworld, the fuckers told us there was a defect which would cause them to fail above 900Mhz.” – Steve Jobs

“In Iran, we continue to see a government that represses its people, pursues weapons of mass destruction and supports terror.” – George W. Bush (with, naturally, no sense of irony whatsoever)

“Take that, sir. By God, sir, you shall more of this yet!”– George Morgan, while striking another man with an umbrella

“When you’re an anarchist and an atheist [there are no holidays].” – Larry Giblock

“Do not come here to ‘retire’ or to groove out on the scenery. The energy can burn the flesh right off your bones, and you may never be the same.” – J.H. Farr, writing from Taos, NM

“Why assume that getting on your knees and praying is the best way to win [God's] favours? No one else likes a kiss-ass, so why should He?” – Sam Jordison, author of Sod That!

“Sadly, I found that as an acid dealer I was complete rubbish. I was taking far too much of my own product and I couldn’t really keep the business side of things straight at all, then, very summarily got expelled.” – Alan Moore

“You give me a waterboard, Dick Cheney and one hour, and I’ll have him confess to the Sharon Tate murders.” – Jesse Ventura

“I know lots of stupid people who went to Ivy League schools.” – Karl Rove (I think this could have been quote of the year, let alone quote of the day)
