 Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules or took a few liberties with our female party guests -- we did. But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg ... isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do what you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America! Gentlemen!

Albert Einstein or Ben Franklin (not sure which):

"The largest difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits."

Unknown:

"Tact is for those not witty enough to be sarcastic."

"If I could control my anger, I would destroy you with it."

"It is better to have loved and lost than to live with the psycho the rest of your life."

The first quote is Einstein. Also, take out the work "largest" from the actual quote.

"There have been joys too great to be described in words, and there have been griefs upon which I have not dared to dwell; and with these in mind I say: Climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are nought without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste; look well to each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end."

Everybody knows who said that!

"You know there is an easier way around the side..." -anonymous hiker

"If at first you dont succeed, skydiving is not for you" -I dont know who

"You know, Westmoreland made all of us officers write our own obituaries during Tet, when we thought The Cong were gonna end it all right there. And, once we clued into the fact that life is finite, the thought of losing it didn't scare us anymore. The end comes no matter what, the only thing that matters is how do you wanna go out, on your feet or on your knees? I bring that lesson to this job. I act, knowing that someday this job will end, no matter what. You should do the same." -FBI Director James Grace from "The Kingdom"

I think that last quote is really cool and applies to anything life threatening, but I like it a lot considering my goal of joining the Army Special Forces after I graduate.

I wasnt sure if epoch's post was sarcastic, but I decided to assume that he is a nice guy and that he was being supportive rather than an asshole
