Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Childzy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Childzy~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Natural disasters

A natural disaster is a major adverse event resulting from natural processes of the Earth; examples are floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and other geologic processes. A natural disaster can cause loss of life or property damage, and typically leaves some economic damage in its wake, the severity of which depends on the affected population's resilience, or ability to recover and also on the infrastructure available.

Quotes

 * Only a fool tests the depth of the water with both feet.
 * Chinese proverb
 * Quoted in To Destroy You Is No Loss: The Odyssey of a Cambodian Family. By Joan D. Criddle and Teeda Butt Mam

 * First the earthquake, then the disaster.
 * Saying among victims. Quoted in "Learn from the Past, Be Involved in the Future" Paul L Doughty. Human Organization. Washington: Winter 2005. Vol. 64, Iss. 4; pg. 303, 13 pgs

 * History shows again and again How nature points out the folly of man.
 * Blue Öyster Cult, "Godzilla", from Spectres (1977)

Talk:Seven (film)

Proper title
Which is the proper canonical title for the film, "Seven" or "Se7en"? I've seen it done each way in a lot of places; IMDb and Wikipedia use "Se7en", while Rotten Tomatoes and Wikiquote have it as "Seven". —LrdChaos 15:15, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I would say that we should probably use "Se7en", with a redirect to it from "Seven (film)" so that we match wikipedia and IMDB. ~ UDScott 15:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

 * If you take care of your character, your reputation will take care of itself.
 * From, The Apprentice, BBC television, 3rd June 2009 ( taken from “If I take care of my character, my reputation will take care of itself.” ― D.L. Moodysee http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/5083573.D_L_Moody ).

R. Scott Bakker

Richard Scott Bakker (born February 2, 1967, Simcoe, Ontario) is a Canadian fantasy author.

Quotes

 * The world is a big place and our brain is only three pounds.
 * In part, The Prince of Nothing is about the dialogue between these two species of faith, the one that identifies itself with doubt and remains open to the superunknown, the other that identifies itself with certainty and remains blind to the superunknown. It shows how empowered, how manipulable, and how dangerous we become when we think we possess an absolute yardstick.
 * Palpable gods. Real magic. A certain, objective moral order. Apocalyptic retribution. The primary difference is that fantasy worlds have dispensed with the belief that comes part and parcel with scriptural worlds. Fantasy allows us to lose ourselves in anthropomorphic worlds without the burden of belief. In this sense, they're scriptural worlds that openly acknowledge themselves as fantastic - which is to say honest scriptural worlds.
 * "A Conversation with R. Scott Bakker, Part I", wotmania.com, 2005-11-01 (accessed 2006-04-14)

Bakker, Scott. "From Scripture to Fantasy: Adrian Johnston and the Problem of Continental Fundamentalism." Cosmos and History: The Journal of Natural and Social Philosophy 13.1 (2017): 522-51. Reactionary Atheism: Hagglund, Derrida, and Nooconservatism
 * I wanted a literate, socially intricate, and cosmopolitan world - something I could have fun destroying.
 * "Interview with R. Scott Bakker", SFFWorld.com, 2004-07-18 (accessed 2006-04-14)
 * It is no accident that fantasy is preoccupied with our pre-Enlightenment, pre-crisis past. The contemporary world is a nihilistic world, where all signs point to the illusory status of love, beauty, goodness and so on. ... Fantasy is the celebration of what we no longer are: individuals certain of our meaningfulness in a meaningful world. The wish-fulfillment that distinguishes fantasy from other genres is not to be the all-conquering hero, but to live in a meaningful world.
 * Why Fantasy and Why Now?, SFFWorld.com, 2000-06-14
 * Johnston's picture of intentionally rising from the cracks and gaps of an intrinsically contradictory reality happens to be the very ontological trope I use to structure the fantasy world of The Second Apocalypse! The ontological formula he hopes will force change on science is the same ontological formula I use to identify my fiction as fantasy fiction. One of my goals in my epic fantasy series is to demonstrate the seamless nature of the fit between Continental philosophical concepts and magical realities, to explore the affinities one finds in theological and new age appropriations of Continental conceptualities. To show the degree to which humanistic discourse belongs to prescientific cultural ecologies, and so examine the inevitability of its obsolescence.
 * I write about the death of magic. All of it.
 * ... science, being science, can only wage total war. No traditional discourse has survived the scientific rationalization of their domain. All of them have been reduced to hokum, expelled from the courts, hounded from policy, from rationality altogether, and relegated to fantasy, which is to say, become commodities sold to balm the superstitious soul.

 * Why break hearts or blow minds when you can rot souls?
 * Our ‘epoch of thinking’ teeters upon the abyssal, a future so radical as to make epic fantasy of everything we are presently inclined to label ‘human.’ Whether it acknowledges as much or not, all thought huddles in the shadow of the posthuman–the shadow of its end... It has been, for better or worse, the thematic impetus behind every novel I have written and every paper I have presented.
 * The difference between the critic and the apologist in philosophy is the difference between conceiving philosophy as refuge, a post hoc means to rationalize and so recuperate what we cherish or require, and conceiving philosophy as exposure, an ad hoc means to mutate thought and so see our way through what we think we cherish or require. ... To truly expose thought is to be willing to let it die… Or become inhuman.
 * To believe in meaning of any sort is to have faith in some version of ‘God.’ Finite or infinite, mortal or immortal, the intentional form is conserved–and as I hope to show, that form is supernatural.

The One-Eyed King: Consciousness, Reification, and the Naturalization of Heidegger

 * Consciousness is something hooked across the top of your nose, like glasses, only as thick as the cosmos.
 * Give me an arm long enough, and I will reach across the universe and punch myself in the back of the head. Not because I deserve it, but because I can take it.

Chapter Eight: Mengedda Chapter Ten: Atsushan Highlands
 * Every monumental work of the State is measured by cubits. Every cubit is measured by the length of the Aspect-Emperor’s arm. And the Aspect-Emperor’s arm, they say, stands beyond measure. But I say the Aspect-Emperor’s arm is measured by the length of a cubit, and that all cubits are measured by the works of the State. Not even the All stands beyond measure, for it is more than what lies within it, and “more” is a kind of measure. Even the God has His cubits.

 * TRIAMIS I, JOURNALS AND DIALOGUES

Francis Parkman

Francis Parkman Jr. (September 16, 1823 – November 8, 1893) was the patriarch of the Flores-Parkman family, and an American historian, best known as author of The Oregon Trail: Sketches of Prairie and Rocky-Mountain Life and his monumental seven-volume France and England in North America.

Quotes

 * If any pale student, glued to his desk, here seek an apology for a way of life whose natural fruits is that pallid and emasculate scholarship of which New England has had too many examples, it will be far better that this sketch had not been written. For the student there is, in its season, no better place than the saddle, and no better companion than the rifle or the oar.
 * Autobiography (1868)

Pioneers of France in the New World (1865)

 * Pioneers of France in the New World (1865)

 * The growth of New England was a result of the aggregate efforts of a busy multitude, each in his narrow circle toiling for himself, to gather competence or wealth. The expansion of New France was the achievement of a gigantic ambition striving to grasp a continent. It was a vain attempt.
 * Introduction

 * A boundless vision grows upon us; an untamed continent; vast wastes of forest verdure; mountains silent in primeval sleep; river, lake, and glimmering pool; wilderness oceans mingling with the sky. Such was the domain which France conquered for Civilization. Plumed helmets gleamed in the shade of its forests, priestly vestments in its dens and fastnesses of ancient barbarism. Men steeped in antique learning, pale with the close breath of the cloister, here spent the noon and evening of their lives, ruled savage hordes with a mild, parental sway, and stood serene before the direst shapes of death. Men of courtly nurture, heirs to the polish of a far-reaching ancestry, here, with their dauntless hardihood, put to shame the boldest sons of toil.
 * Introduction

 * Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts. Such facts may be detailed with the most minute exactness, and yet the narrative, taken as a whole, may be unmeaning or untrue. The narrator must seek to imbue himself with the life and spirit of the time. He must study events in their bearings near and remote; in the character, habits, and manners of those who took part in them, he must himself be, as it were, a sharer or a spectator of the action he describes.
 * Introduction

 * Every ship from the New World came freighted with marvels which put the fictions of chivalry to shame; and to the Spaniard of that day America was a region of wonder and mystery, of vague and magnificent promise. Thither adventurers hastened, thirsting for glory and for gold, and often mingling the enthusiasm of the crusader and the valor of the knight-errant with the bigotry of inquisitors and the rapacity of pirates. They roamed over land and sea; they climbed unknown mountains, surveyed unknown oceans, pierced the sultry intricacies of tropical forests; while from year to year and from day to day new wonders were unfolded, new islands and archipelagoes, new regions of gold and pearl, and barbaric empires of more than Oriental wealth. The extravagance of hope and the fever of adventure knew no bounds.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 1 Early Spanish Adventure

 * The Spanish voyager, as his caravel ploughed the adjacent seas, might give full scope to his imagination, and dream that beyond the long, low margin of forest which bounded his horizon lay hid a rich harvest for some future conqueror; perhaps a second Mexico with its royal palace and sacred pyramids, or another Cuzco with its temple of the Sun, encircled with a frieze of gold. Haunted by such visions, the ocean chivalry of Spain could not long stand idle.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 1

 * In the middle of the sixteenth century, Spain was the incubus of Europe. Gloomy and portentous, she chilled the world with her baneful shadow.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 2 Villegagnon

 * Mistress of the Indies, Spain swarmed with beggars. Yet, verging to decay, she had an ominous and appalling strength. Her condition was that of an athletic man penetrated with disease, which had not yet unstrung the thews and sinews formed in his days of vigor.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 2

 * In the year 1562 a cloud of black and deadly portent was thickening over France. Surely and swiftly she glided towards the abyss of the religious wars. None could pierce the future, perhaps none dared to contemplate it: the wild rage of fanaticism and hate, friend grappling with friend, brother with brother, father with son; altars profaned, hearth-stones made desolate, the robes of Justice herself bedrenched with murder. In the gloom without lay Spain, imminent and terrible.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 3 Jean Ribaut

 * America was still a land of wonder. The ancient spell still hung unbroken over the wild, vast world of mystery beyond the sea,—a land of romance, adventure, and gold.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 3

 * The young nobles, of whom there were many, were volunteers, who had paid their own expenses in expectation of a golden harvest, and they chafed in impatience and disgust. The religious element in the colony—unlike the former Huguenot emigration to Brazil--was evidently subordinate. The adventurers thought more of their fortunes than of their faith.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 5 Conspiracy

 * And now, in ample measure, the French began to reap the harvest of their folly. Conquest, gold, and military occupation had alone been their aims. Not a rod of ground had been stirred with the spade. Their stores were consumed, and the expected supplies had not come. The Indians, too, were hostile. Satouriona hated them as allies of his enemies; and his tribesmen, robbed and maltreated by the lawless soldiers, exulted in their miseries. Yet in these, their dark and subtle neighbors, was their only hope.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 6 Famine. War. Succor.

 * The monk, the inquisitor, and the Jesuit were lords of Spain,— sovereigns of her sovereign, for they had formed the dark and narrow mind of that tyrannical recluse. They had formed the minds of her people, quenched in blood every spark of rising heresy, and given over a noble nation to a bigotry blind and inexorable as the doom of fate. Linked with pride, ambition, avarice, every passion of a rich, strong nature, potent for good and ill, it made the Spaniard of that day a scourge as dire as ever fell on man.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 7 Menendez

 * Day was breaking on the world. Light, hope, and freedom pierced with vitalizing ray the clouds and the miasma that hung so thick over the prostrate Middle Age, once noble and mighty, now a foul image of decay and death. Kindled with new life, the nations gave birth to a progeny of heroes, and the stormy glories of the sixteenth century rose on awakened Europe. But Spain was the citadel of darkness,—a monastic cell, an inquisitorial dungeon, where no ray could pierce. She was the bulwark of the Church, against whose adamantine wall the waves of innovation beat in vain.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 7

 * The state of international relations in the sixteenth century is hardly conceivable at this day. The Puritans of England and the Huguenots of France regarded Spain as their natural enemy, and on the high seas and in the British Channel they joined hands with godless freebooters to rifle her ships, kill her sailors, or throw them alive into the sea. Spain on her side seized English Protestant sailors who ventured into her ports, and burned them as heretics, or consigned them to a living death in the dungeons of the Inquisition. Yet in the latter half of the century these mutual outrages went on for years while the nations professed to be at peace. There was complaint, protest, and occasional menace, but no redress, and no declaration of war.
 * Pt. I, Ch. 9 Charles IX and Philip II

 * When America was first made known to Europe, the part assumed by France on the borders of that new world was peculiar, and is little recognized. While the Spaniard roamed sea and land, burning for achievement, red-hot with bigotry and avarice, and while England, with soberer steps and a less dazzling result, followed in the path of discovery and gold-hunting, it was from France that those barbarous shores first learned to serve the ends of peaceful commercial industry.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 1 Early French Adventure in North America

 * Years rolled on. France, long tossed among the surges of civil commotion, plunged at last into a gulf of fratricidal war. Blazing hamlets, sacked cities, fields steaming with slaughter, profaned altars, and ravished maidens, marked the track of the tornado. There was little room for schemes of foreign enterprise.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 2 La Roche. Champlain. De Monts.

 * Humanity, morality, decency, might be forgotten, but codfish must still be had for the use of the faithful in Lent and on fast days.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 2

 * Art, industry, and commerce, so long crushed and overborne, were stirring into renewed life, and a crowd of adventurous men, nurtured in war and incapable of repose, must seek employment for their restless energies in fields of peaceful enterprise.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 2

 * A true hero, after the chivalrous mediaeval type, his [Champlain's] character was dashed largely with the spirit of romance. Though earnest, sagacious, and penetrating, he leaned to the marvellous; and the faith which was the life of his hard career was somewhat prone to overstep the bounds of reason and invade the domain of fancy.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 2

 * Evil reports of a churlish wilderness, a pitiless climate, disease, misery, and death, had heralded the arrival of De Monts. The outlay had been great, the returns small; and when he reached Paris, he found his friends cold, his enemies active and keen.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 4 Lescarbot and Champlain

 * In one point the plan was fatally defective, since it involved the deadly enmity of a race whose character and whose power were as yet but ill understood,--the fiercest, boldest, most politic, and most ambitious savages to whom the American forest has ever given birth.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 13 Discovery of Lake Huron

 * The lot of the favored guest of an Indian camp or village is idleness without repose, for he is never left alone, with the repletion of incessant and inevitable feasts.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 14 The Great War Party

 * His [Champlain's] books mark the man,—all for his theme and his purpose, nothing for himself. Crude in style, full of the superficial errors of carelessness and haste, rarely diffuse, often brief to a fault, they bear on every page the palpable impress of truth.
 * Pt. II, Ch. 17 Death of Champlain

Montcalm and Wolfe (1884)

 * The most momentous and far-reaching question ever brought to issue on this continent was: Shall France remain here, or shall she not?
 * Introduction

 * Versailles was a gulf into which the labor of France poured its earnings; and it was never full.
 * Ch. 1 The Combatants

 * The Revolution began at the top,—in the world of fashion, birth, and intellect,—and propagated itself downwards.
 * Ch. 1

 * France built its best colony on a principle of exclusion, and failed; England reversed the system, and succeeded.
 * Ch. 1

Quotes about Parkman

 * It would be easy to dismiss Pontiac as a curious — perhaps embarrassing — artifact of another time and place. Yet Parkman's work represents a pioneering effort; in several ways he anticipated the kind of frontier history now taken for granted.... Parkman's masterful and evocative use of language remains his most enduring and instructive legacy.
 * Michael N. McConnell|, on Parkman's book The Conspiracy of Pontiac, in his "Introduction" to the Bison Book Edition (1994), p. xv

 * The clarity, the momentum and the color of the first volumes of Parkman's narrative are among the most brilliant achievements of the writing of history as an art.
 * Edmund Wilson, on Parkman's France and England in North America, in O Canada : An American's Notes on Canadian Culture (1965)

Espionage

Espionage is the practice of surreptitiously obtaining information about an organization or a society that is considered secret or confidential.

Quotes

 * Alphabetized by author or source

 * Because something is not what it is said to be, Ma'am, does not mean it is a fake. It may just have been wrongly attributed.
 * Alan Bennett, in A Question of Attribution; said by Anthony Blunt, who was Surveyor of the Queen's Pictures and a Soviet agent.

Cocaine crack unpacking, high surveillance tracking Prominant blacks and whites giving orders for mass slaughters but I want all my daughters to be like Maxine Waters When they flooded the streets with crack cocaine, I was like Noah now they lower cause the whole cold war is over Communism fell to the dollars you were grabbing All the assault and battering in the name of intelligence gathering?
 * Need I say the C.I.A. be Criminals In Action
 * KRS-One, "C.I.A. (Criminals In Action)", Lyricist Lounge, Volume One (1998).

 * Satellite reconnaissance and other intelligence breakthroughs also contributed to the obsolescence of major wars by diminishing the possibility of surprise in starting them, and by eliminating opportunities for concealment in waging them. Surprises could still happen, like Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in August, 1990, but only because the interpretation of intelligence failed, not its collection. Once the liberation of that country began early in 1991, Saddam Hussein found his military deployments so visible, and therefore so exposed to attack, that he had no choice but to withdraw. Transparency—a by-product of the Cold War strategic arms race—created a wholly new environment that rewarded those who sought to prevent wars and discouraged those who tried to begin them.
 * John Lewis Gaddis, The Cold War: A New History (2005), pp. 262-263
 * Mrs O'Grady has been sentenced to death. Personally I doubt whether she is guilty of anything more than collecting information. She probably pictured herself as a master spy, and cannot bring herself to say that there was really nothing behind it all.
 * Guy Liddell, Director of Counter-Espionage for MI5, the British Security Service, in a diary entry (17 December 1940); this refers to Dorothy Pamela O'Grady, an Isle of Wight landlady; on appeal her sentence was reduced to fourteen years' imprisonment.

 * I played it slightly tongue-in-cheek because I never quite believed that James Bond was a spy because everybody knew him, they all knew what he drank. He’d walk into a bar and it would always be, 'Ah, Commander Bond, martini, shaken not stirred.’ Spies are faceless people.
 * Roger Moore in "Roger Moore interview: 'I was never very confident with girls'" by Tim Auld, The Telegraph, 23 May 2017.

 * Excuse me, can you help me? I'm a spy.
 * Terry Nation, in lines for the the fourth incarnation of the Doctor, in the Doctor Who episodes Genesis of the Daleks [12.4] (8 March - 12 April 1975)

 * His spies are seated round about.
 * Rigveda, m. 1, hymn XXV (trans Griffith)

 * No spy, however astute, is proof against relentless interrogation. Some unforseen circumstance, some trivial lapse, is pounced upon, exploited by the interrogator, until a break is complete.
 * Lt-Col Robin Stephens, Commandant of Camp 020 which was the secret British centre for interrogating suspected Nazi spies during World War II. Stephens aimed to get "a break" in which the spy would make a full confession, and almost always succeeded. "Camp 020: MI5 and the Nazi spies" (2000) by the Public Record Office, p. 105

 * The spies of the underworld are legion. Craven crooks, for the most part, they are prey to blackmail.
 * Lt-Col Robin Stephens, who divided spies into three broad categories: patriots, of the underworld, and just mercenary, "Camp 020: MI5 and the Nazi spies" (2000) by the Public Record Office, p. 106

 * Indeed, there may well be many who will agree that death by hanging is almost too good for a sailor who will encompass the death of thousands of his shipmates without qualm.
 * Lt-Col Robin Stephens, Commandant of Camp 020, in a report recommending no reprieve from sentence of death for Duncan Scott-Ford who had admitted communicating information about Allied ships to German agents. Scott-Ford was hanged. "Camp 020: MI5 and the Nazi spies" (2000) by the Public Record Office, p. 198

 * An awful symbiosis emerged between the main actors of the Cold War, a rhythm of escalation between the Pentagon and the Soviet strategic rocket forces, and along secret war between the KGB and the CIA which helped make the spy thriller into the distinctive cultural genre of the period. The two sides became locked into the roles of hero and villain in one another's morality play, as two distinct theories of social and political organisation believed they were grappling for nothing less than the inheritance of the planet.
 * Martin Walker, The Cold War: A History (1994)

 * And we did have fun. For five years we bugged and burgled our way across London at the State's behest, while pompous bowler-hatted civil servants in Whitehall pretended to look the other way.
 * Peter Wright, "Spycatcher" (1987), p. 54

 * To MI5, if you steam this open you are dirty buggers.
 * Letter sent to a prominent member of the Communist Party of Great Britain and opened by MI5. According to Wright, Major Denman (MI5 officer in charge of post interception) classified it as 'obscene post' (so that he was not required to send it on), framed the letter and put it on his office wall. Quoted in "Spycatcher" (1987) by Peter Wright, p. 46

 * What would be the real damage if Washington stopped spying on Moscow and Moscow stopped spying on Washington, and both on Beijing? The result would be a draw. Immense sums of money would be saved, since a large part of the efforts of every spy agency is devoted to obstructing the intrigues of the competition. How many diseases could be overcome? How many hungry people fed, how many illiterates taught to read and write?

 * Delete, unless evidence of notability is provided. I couldn't find anything on this person (even using a variety of spellings for the name) online. I also did a search on Columbine-related books on a couple of sites (B&N, Amazon) and couldn't find anyone close to this name. Does this person even exist? ~ UDScott 19:52, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Concur with UDScott about evidence. Based on the writing and spelling, I wouldn't be surprised if the name itself is misspelled, making it impossible for anyone but the article creator to identify this person. If she is an author of a "500-paged book", surely this anonymous editor can provide the title and maybe even the ISBN? I'm not going to hold my breath, though. There are far too many quotes in this article that are more vanity than profundity. It might even be a hoax article. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 22:34, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think that you are way too cruel. The author is just 17, and people deserve chances. The name of the book -which has been added- is called "Good wombs have born bad sons" and it has been published in Greece alone, so it is natural not to know it. And why would someone spend so much time to write about a person that doesn't even exist? And you gotta admit that some of the quotes are pretty good. ~ David Raymond 22:38, 30 March, 2006 (UTC)
 * The above text was added by 213.170.204.59 rather than the currently non-existent username "David Raymond" as originally claimed. This may have just been a misunderstanding about user registration and usernames. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 22:30, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The purpose of Wikiquote is not to promote new authors with no significant audience yet. It is to collect quotations from established, notable people and creative works. The only hits I find for the phrase "Good wombs have born bad sons" are the expected quotes from and citations of William Shakespeare's The Tempest and from Columbine shooter Eric Harris's academic planner, presumably quoting Shakespeare. We have found no one named "Helen Vrousia" thus far, and the information that she is a 17-year-old Greek neither helps us verify any supposed work, nor suggests she is likely to be considered notable by WikiMedia project standards. This is not a personal issue; it's just not the quote material that Wikiquote collects. You might try establishing an article for Ms. Vrousia at Greek Wikiquote, as she may be more notable in Greece. As for why someone would write about a person who doesn't exist, it's the same reason people write viruses and deface websites — it amuses them. We get hoax articles like all the time at Wikiquote. The only way we can ensure that we have accurate quotes from real people is to source and verify them, which is why we've asked for such information. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 22:53, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't have this series handy (and am not likely to anytime soon), so I invite the community to watch some old episodes and add some exact quotes (preferably citing the show titles). Thank you. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 02:10, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

 * There is finally available on DVD - via internet/800 number official DVD release, I do have somewhere a book on the show if I can find it again that has the complete list of the shows. Scampster 04:45, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Sorry about that Chief.

There is also an entire episode guide and a page with all the catchphrases too, at WouldYouBelieve.com, which is the "official" Get Smart website. It also has a page on the DVDs and where to get them and which release to get (some of them are rip-offs, beware!). This site is also good if you want to put some references in too....

Thanks for experimenting with Wikiquote. Your test worked, and has now been reverted or removed. Please use Sandbox for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles will normally be reverted quickly. Please see the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our compendium of quotations. Thanks. -- Robert 02:27, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Seb Patrick. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Seb Patrick~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:34, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Bryan Adams

Bryan Guy Adams OC OBC (born 5 November 1959) is a Canadian singer, guitarist and songwriter. Adams was inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame in 1998 and in April 2006, he was inducted into the Music Hall of Fame at Canada's Juno Awards.

Quotes

 * My motto has always been “If you love animals, don’t eat them”. ... the moment I began to understand what was going on with the treatment of animals, it led me more and more in the way of the path I am [on] now, which is a complete vegan.
 * “Bryan Adams on Animal Rights and Being Vegan”, interview with PETA, in Peta.org (7 January 2007)
 * I bring out an engineer, everything fits into a suitcase and we just record. I have so much spare time during that day that it makes sense to utilize it to do something creative like that, as opposed to just sitting around the hotel and sightseeing or something.
 * Adams tells Billboard.com that he recorded the new songs for "Room Service" in hotel rooms and other locales while on the road. Billboard.com (April 8, 2008). Url accessed on December 15, 2008

Cuts Like a Knife (1983)
All songs written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance except where noted.

 * Give it to me straight from the heart. Tell me we can make one more start. You know I'll never go - as long as I know It's comin' straight from the heart.
 * Straight from the Heart, written by Bryan Adams and Eric Kagna
 * Now it cuts like a knife, But it feels so right.
 * Cuts Like a Knife
 * I'm ready - to love you. I'm ready - to hold you. I'm ready - I'm ready. Ready as I'm gonna be.
 * I'm Ready

I won't stand bein' broken hearted; I won't be pushed around. The rules were set when we got started, But lately I have found

We've spent too little time and too much heartache. I feel we're losin' ground. And lately I've been hearin' You won't be needin' me around.

Reckless (1984)
All songs written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance except where noted.

One night love affair, Tryin' to make like we don't care. We were both reachin' out for somethin'.

 * One Night Love Affair
 * I'm gonna run to you. Yeah - I'm gonna run to you. Cause when the feelin's right, I'm gonna stay all night.
 * Run to You

Oh thinkin’ about all our younger years. There was only you and me. We were young and wild and free. Now nothing can take you away from me. We've been down that road before. But that's over now. You keep me coming back for more.

And baby you're all that I want. When you're lying here in my arms, I’m finding it hard to believe we're in heaven.

 * Heaven

I've been lookin' for someone Between the fire and the flame. We're all lookin' for somethin' To ease the pain. Now who can you turn to When it's all black and white? And the winners are losers. You see it every night.

I need somebody, Somebody like you. Everybody needs somebody.

 * Somebody

I got my first real six-string, Bought it at the five-and-dime. Played it till my fingers bled, It was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard. Jimmy quit and Jody got married; I shoulda known we'd never get far.

Oh, when I look back now, That summer seemed to last forever. And if I had the choice, Yeah - I'd always wanna be there. Those were the best days of my life.

 * Summer of '69
 * When your heart has been broken, Hard words have been spoken. It ain't easy - but it's only love.

 * Hearts on Fire, Written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance

Waking Up the Neighbours (1991)
All songs written by Bryan Adams and Robert John "Mutt" Lange, except as noted

 * You might stop a hurricane, Might even stop the drivin' rain. You might have a dozen other guys, But if you wanna stop me baby - don't even try. I'm goin' one way - your way. It's such a strong way - let's make it our way.
 * Can't Stop This Thing We Started
 * Baby - thought I'd died and gone to heaven; Such a night I never had before. Thought I'd died and gone to heaven, Cause what I got there ain't no cure for.
 * Thought I'd Died and Gone to Heaven
 * Do I have to say the words? Do I have to tell the truth? Do I have to shout it out? Do I have to say a prayer? Must I prove to you how good we are together? Do I have to say the words?
 * Do I Have to Say the Words?, written by Bryan Adams, Mutt Lange, and Jim Vallance

Look into my eyes, you will see What you mean to me. Search your heart, search your soul. And when you find me there, You’ll search no more.

Don’t tell me it’s not worth trying for. You can’t tell me it’s not worth dying for. You know it’s true, Everything I do, I do it for you.

 * The Only Thing That Looks Good on Me Is You
 * I love the way you look tonight With your hair hangin' down on your shoulders. N' I love the way you dance your slow sweet tango, The way you wanna do everything but talk. And how you stare at me with those undress me eyes, Your breath on my body makes me warm inside.
 * Let's Make a Night to Remember

Wanna be young, the rest of my life. Never say no, try anything twice. Til the angels come and ask me to fly. Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die. Can't live forever, that's wishful thinkin'. Whoever said that must have been drinkin'. Don't wanna grow up, I don't see why. I couldn't care less if time flies by.

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die. Yeah it sure feels good to be alive. Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55!

 * 18 til I Die
 * There's a road, long and winding. The lights are blindin', but it gets there. Don't give up, don't look back. There's a silver linin', it's out there somewhere. Everybody wants an answer, everybody needs a friend. We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend.
 * Star, written by Bryan Adams, Mutt Lange, and Michael Kamen
 * To really love a woman, To understand her, you gotta know her deep inside. Hear every thought, see every dream. And give her wings, when she wants to fly. Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms, You know you really love a woman.
 * Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?, written by Bryan Adams, Mutt Lange, and Michael Kamen

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Schroter2. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Schroter2~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:35, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
