Quotations Meme

Saturday night at 11:00 p.m. sounds like a lovely time to succumb to the Quotations Meme (ganked from rimrunnner).

Go here and look through random quotes until you find 5 that reflect who you are or what you believe. Repost in your journal and tag 5 friends.

"I was born an American; I will live an American; I shall die an American." Daniel Webster (1782 - 1852)

"The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all." H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)

"My mind to me a kingdom is,
Such present joys therein I find,
That it excels all other bliss." Sir Edward Dyer

"Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people." W.C. Fields

"There are some people who will argue whether the flames are blue
or green, when the real question is that their arse is on fire." Unknown, a la the Internet

And yes, I cheated on the last one.
