Some interesting words of wisdom
I was checking the quote from von Schiller which I suggest as the new motto of our country, and which appears on this page, I found some other interesting quotes on http://www.quotationspage.com.
It's simply amazing what foresight past thinkers had in predicting the problems of our age, for example, on our current "president," GWB:
- There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
- Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. - Elbert Hubbard
And how did we come to be blessed with such a "leader"?
- Get all the fools on your side and you can be elected to anything. - Frank Dane
Finally, may I make a suggestion for a new and far more fitting national anthem. Everyone always complains the current one is so hard to sing, and it must be, because when some one sings it at a public gathering, they usually make it an agonizing experience for the audience. The following fits the American ethos so much better, anyway:
The best things in life are freebut you can keep them for the birds and bees,
just give me Money [that's what I want]...
Your lovin' gives me a thrill
But your lovin' don't pay my bills
Just give me Money...
Money don't get everything, it's true
But what it don't get, I can't use
So give me money...
Why SHOULD God bless America?
