    How does that one finish? Or start...
    if you can keep your head when all about you
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
    If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
    But make allowance for their doubting too,
    If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
    Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
    Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
    And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

    :D

    ha, well thats the part of the poem i quoted. :P
    i'll give you the whole poem in hope itll satisfiy you!

    And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
    If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
    If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
    If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
    And treat those two impostors just the same;
    If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
    Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
    And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
    If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
    And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breath a word about your loss;
    If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
    To serve your turn long after they are gone,
    And so hold on when there is nothing in you
    Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
    If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
    Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
    If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
    If all men count with you, but none too much,
    If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
    Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
    And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!

    Pleased?

    Is there something to learn? Or something to see?
    Because nothing to lose; is not nothing to be.

    Haven't you heard the messages?
    Haven't you read the passages?

    There's a ghost who is going to haunt me for all my life.
    I'll be he never touches you.

    I guess the difference is, between us three,
    They make our open books awful hard to read.

    Maybe I've been painting you with all the wrong brushes too
    Maybe you really know what too much is, well, well maybe you do.




    I just think they're great lyrics (and a great song)

    My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

    God darnit, Mr. Lamarr, you use your tongue prettier than a twenty dollar whore.




    What did you expect? "Welcome, sonny"? "Make yourself at home"? "Marry my daughter"? You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West.

    You know... morons.

    Peter (after Lois tells him he's childish): "If I'm a child that means you're a pedophile, and I'll be damned if i'm going stand here and take this from a pervert."

    Peter: Ok, here's another riddle. A woman has two children. A homicidal murderer tells her she can only keep one. Which one does she let him kill?
    Brian: That's... that's not a riddle. That's ... that's just terrible.
    Peter: Wrong, the ugly one
