quotations

Popular t-shirts with a quote people want to believe are going to win this one, I believe.

True or not, this quote will live on.

So we disagree.  I think we can agree on that.

Oh, I agree with you.  Unfortunately, these days knowledge is dumbed down to popular opinion.

Well, at least we know for sure that Columbus discovered America and Al Gore invented the internet.    :wink:

Who said that originally?  ;D

I don’t disagree that the quote will live on, but I think it matters.  It is marketing without substance, based on a lie, and I can’t support that.  But you go ahead. :wink:

“If I had saved all the money I ever spent on beer I’d spend it on beer.” - Majorvices

Now, that’s a REAL quote!

Reminds me of a George Raft quote. Back in the 30s he had more than $10 million. Just before he died he was living in a nursing home and was interviewed by a report who asked what happened.

He said he “spent part of the money on gambling, part for horses, part for booze, and part for women. The rest I spent foolishly.”

Gotta love a person who has his priorities right.

“Beer is a miracle in itself.” - Stephen King

“Now, beer is my friend.” - Charlie Papazian

Twas ever thus. In college I had to read the book “Lies my teacher told me” in one of my classes. It’s really amazing how much of history is popular opinion, and how little is based on fact.

“The truth is determined by those in charge.”  -  John Twelve Hawks, from The Traveller

And it’s always been like that.  After the death of Akhenaten in ancient Egypt, those who followed him tried to erase his existence.  Think of what the “truth” is in Russia and China, let alone North Korea.

This is why its so important to only fight for things you know to be true, youve seen it and verified it, not just been told it. I’d hate to battle over something I was told, then find out it was bs.

“I think we are better off letting people do what they want to do.” Yso191

I’d better get off this forum then.

Oh I meant actually fighting, like drawing blood or dropping napalm.  ARGUING about heresay is what makes the world interesting.

“I have not yet begun to drink!”
John Paul Jones

“I feel sorry for people who don’t drink. When they wake up in the morning, that’s as good as they’re going to feel all day.” - Dean Martin
