 * There are days when I get caught up in being the most notorious convict of all time. In that frame of mind I get off on all the publicity, and I'm pleased when some fool writes and offers to 'off some pigs' for me. I've had girls come to visit me with their babies in their arms and say, 'Charlie, I'd do anything in the world for you. I'm raising my baby in your image.' Those letters and visits used to delight me, but that's just my individual sickness. What sickness is it that keeps sending me kids and followers? It's your world out there that does it. I don't solicit my mail or ask anyone to come and visit me. Yet the mail continues to arrive and your pretty little flowers of innocence keep showing up at the gate. Could this be because I'm a pussy? But currently I don't care, I'm 81 years old and being stuck in here is no fair.

 * Money is a game. It's only real to people who work for it.

 * The United States has been sold out by people who really don't care for anything but money.

 * If anybody cares, they're considered crazy. I've been fifteen years in the nut ward for trying to stop the trees from being cut down.

 * I don't think you people want to know what I know. You wouldn't like it.
 * Why?
 * Because it's not very nice.
 * Why?
 * Because the people that you let run your lives aren't very nice, the people that govern you, the people that tell you what to do, they're not good people.

 * As interviewed by Nuel Emmons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMl0ZcEfuw0&t=714

 * (And they take you to Strawberry Fields) where nothing is real but the medication and the numbness and then they cut their wrists and write 'I love you God' all over the walls and hang themselves on the ventilators.

 * Believe me, if I started murdering people, there'd be none of you left.

 * Hitler was a tuned in guy.

 * I am dismayed at the readers who lap up the lies and believe them like the Bible, but I have to hand it to the guys who created the image.... I really shouldn't blame the readers 'cause I kind of get caught up in the stories myself. But when I start believing I might really possess all the powers attributed to me and I try to work a whammy on my prison guard — he or she shuts the prison door in my face. Back to reality. I realize I am only what I've always been: a half-assed nothing."

 * I don't ask other men's opinions. I have my own.

 * I have X'd myself from your world... You have created the monster. I am not of you, from you, nor do I condone your unjust attitude toward things, animals, and people that you do not try to understand...I stand opposed to what you do and have done in the past...You make fun of god and have murdered the world in the name of Jesus Christ...My faith in me is stronger than all of your armies, governments, gas chambers, or anything you may want to do to me. I know what I have done. Your courtroom is man's game. Love is my judge...

 * I know and understand you are much more than what I think you are, but first I must deal with you the way I think you even if that's only my own thinking and not you.

 * I may have implied on several occasions to several different people that I may have been Jesus Christ, but I haven't decided yet what I am or who I am.

 * I play music. People are affected by the music I play. That doesn't mean I direct traffic, that I put a knife in someone's hand and tell them to go kill somebody,

 * I told them that anything they do for their brothers and sisters is good if they do it with a good thought...

 * I'm a hobo ... a derelict ... a bum. I'm an open boxcar and a bottle of wine ... and a straightrazor if you get too close!
 * When asked the question, "Who is Charles Manson?"; Variant: I'm a boxcar and a jug of wine ... and a straight razor if you get too close.

 * I'm not your executioner. I'm not your devil and I'm not your God. I'm Charles Manson.

 * If you spit in my face, and smack me in the mouth, and throw me in solitary confinement for nothing, what do you think's gonna happen when I get out of here?

 * Look down at me and you see a fool; look up at me and you see a god; look straight at me and you see yourself.

 * Mr. and Mrs. America — you are wrong. I am not the king of the jews nor am I a hippie cult leader. I am what you have made of me and the mad dog devil killer fiend leper is a reflection of your society. . . Whatever the outcome of this madness that you call a fair trial or Christian justice, you can know this: In my mind's eye my thoughts light fires in your cities.

 * My disappointment is that so many of you are so gullible, that you eat everything you are fed. Even the "system" lends to the madness. Your world requires the California Board of Parole to call me before them for release consideration. On my recent appearances they have had the room full of TV cameras so that everyone can go through their act of justice and efficiency for anyone that wants to watch. But it's a game with two sides, theirs and mine. They know they aren't about to let me out. And to make them feel good about their foregone conclusion, I play the fool for them and their cameras. And even if they should say, 'Okay, Manson, you can go home', I'd have to ask, Go where? You gave me this cell when I was 12 years old. I've become as much a part of the cells as the bars on the windows and doors. This is my home.

 * My eyes are cameras. My mind is tuned to more television channels than exist in your world. And it suffers no censorship. Through it, I have a world and the universe as my own. So...know that only a body is in prison. At my will, I walk your streets and am right out there among you.

 * My relationship to music is completely subliminal, it just flows through me.

 * No sense makes sense.

 * Remorse for what? You people have done everything in the world to me. Doesn't that give me equal right?

 * Sanity is a little box.

 * So for you people who are filled with fear that I might someday be released: breathe easy, I don't see it happening.

 * The music group I had was called 'The Family Jams'. And all the girls sang in the music group, and all the boys played in the music group. It had nothing to do with the occult. It was a music group.

 * The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.

 * The world of madness is a lot bigger than the world of sane,

 * There are days when I get caught up in being the most notorious convict of all time. In that frame of mind I get off on all the publicity, and I'm pleased when some fool writes and offers to 'off some pigs' for me. I've had girls come to visit me with their babies in their arms and say, 'Charlie, I'd do anything in the world for you. I'm raising my baby in your image.' Those letters and visits used to delight me, but that's just my individual sickness. What sickness is it that keeps sending me kids and followers? It's your world out there that does it. I don't solicit my mail or ask anyone to come and visit me. Yet the mail continues to arrive and your pretty little flowers of innocence keep showing up at the gate.

 * There were these two kids — everybody thought I was cruel because one day he (the youngest boy) fell in a three foot ditch. There was a lot of bushes, the slope was three or four feet above the ditch. Down there it was muddy and he was crying. Others standing around said, "Help him out", but I didn't. I said, "Watch". About twenty minutes passed or so and he stopped crying and started to climb out on his own. And the second time he tried to climb out he fell back down, but kept on climbing out more. Finally when he made it, climbed out, he was really tired, and stood in front of me and smiled. I pushed him back in the ditch again.

 * We're not in Wonderland anymore, Alice.

 * Where does the garbage go? As we have tins and garbage alongside the road, and oil slicks in the water, so you have people, and I am one of your garbage people.

 * Why are the children doing what they're doing? Why does a child reach up and kill his mom and dad and murder his two little sisters and then cut his throat?

 * Women today are not satisfied. ... They want men, but all they find are little boys.

About Charles Manson

 * Thanks Chaz!
 * Axl Rose

 * While I was working on Downward Spiral, I was living in the house where Sharon Tate was killed. Then one day I met her sister. It was a random thing, just a brief encounter. And she said: "Are you exploiting my sister's death by living in her house?" For the first time, the whole thing kind of slapped me in the face. I said, "No, it's just sort of my own interest in American folklore. I'm in this place where a weird part of history occurred." I guess it never really struck me before, but it did then. She lost her sister from a senseless, ignorant situation that I don't want to support. When she was talking to me, I realized for the first time, "What if it was my sister?" I thought, "Fuck Charlie Manson." I went home and cried that night. It made me see there's another side to things, you know?
 * Trent Reznor

Inadequately sourced

 * You can try to kill me a million times more but you cannot kill soul. Truth was, is, and will always be. You have beaten me, broken my neck, knocked my teeth out. You've drugged me for years, dragging me up and down prison hallways, laying my head on every chopping block you've got in this state, chained me, burnt me, but you cannot defeat me. All you can do is destroy yourselves with your own judgments.
 * Parole hearing (1986)

 * From behind the time locks of courtrooms and from the worlds of darkness, I did let loose devils and demons with the power of scorpions to torment.
 * Parole hearing statement (1986)

 * I accept this decision. That's cool. What I'd like for you to do in your own minds personally, everybody that has a personal mind of their own, could possibly consider that the longer that you let this conviction stand, and this little Helter Skelter scheme of the District Attorney to give his particular reality over into the play, that's going to be the reality that they're perpetuating. That's not the reality that I'm perpetuating. I'm not saying that I wasn't involved. I'm saying that I did not break man's law nor did I break God's law. Consider that in the judgments that you have for yourselves. Good day. Thank you.
 * Response upon being denied parole (1997)

 * Note for the record. In the all that was said about me, it was not me saying it, and if you see a false prophet, it is only a reflection of your judgments, for in truth, it is motions, not words, that speak for the Manson family. We each have our own worlds and judgments. I have no judgments outside of what you all have set for yourselves. I'm content wherever I am. Whatever you do or say does not touch my inner circle. I have peace within myself. Peace of mind.
 * Parole hearing statement

 * Used to be being crazy meant something. Nowadays, everybody's crazy
 * TV interview

 * I am a mechanical man, a mechanical man/ And I do the best I can.
 * Song lyric

 * Utter confusion/ Live on in your illusion/ That won't wear out
 * Song lyric

 * I never thought I was normal, never tried to be normal. Normal runs in that little rut down there. I don’t know nothing about being normal. I‘ve been in jail all my life, man. I lived on the handball court. This guy raised me up. All the men in the joint raised me up, told me what to do, what was right and wrong, told me where to sit down, where to stand up, I just did whatever I was told. You know, and I got to the end of it and I just turned around and said "Wow, far out."
 * Interview with Tom Snyder (1981)

 * Well, we’re our own prisons. We're each our own wardens and we do our own times. We get stuck in our own little trips and we kind a judge ourselves the way we do. You know, I can’t judge uh, nobody else, best thing I can do is try to judge myself and live with that. See, what other people do is not really my affair, unless they approach me with it, and want me to do something about it, uh, then I’ll uh take into consideration what has to be done. But other than that I just uh, try to do my number, and do my time.
 * Interview with Tom Snyder (1981)

 * [On what he feels he is expected to say] Consider it, I'll tell you like this: I'm going to chop up some more of you mother-fuckers. I'm going to kill as many of you as I can. I'm going to pile you up to the sky. I figure about fifty million of you.
 * Interview with Geraldo Rivera

 * Geraldo: How do you feel about the fact that you're going to spend the rest of your life here? Manson: The rest of my life where? Geraldo: Right here. Manson: You guys have been living a thousand illusions, man. The rest of my life where?" Geraldo: In prison." Manson: In prison? What prison? You got a prison in your mind? You see what I'm saying? You're in prison, son. You're the one that's in jail because you think there is such a thing as a prison. I'm sitting on the ground and a guy comes up and draws a line and he says "You're in prison". I say "Oh, I'm in prison?" and he puts up a big gate and says "You can't get out". I say "Oh, I can't get out?" and he says "Yes", then he dresses people up and walks them back and forth and has them say "We're keeping you locked up" and I say "Oh you are? I didn't have anything else to do anyway."
 * Interview with Geraldo Rivera

 * We should have suicide parlors where, if someone wants to die, they should be allowed to die. If someone wants to use drugs they should be allowed to use drugs. How can someone else say "You can't do what you want to do"?
 * Interview with Geraldo Rivera

 * I don't deal with women I got to tell what to do. They know what to do.
 * Interview with Geraldo Rivera

 * Mr. and Mrs. America - You are wrong. I am not the king of Jews nor am I a hippie cult leader. I am what you made of me and the mad dog devil killer fiend leper is a reflection of your society ... Whatever the outcome of this madness that you call a fair trial or Christian justice, you can know this: In my mind's eye my thoughts light fires in your cities.
 * Statement issued by Charles Manson after his conviction for the Tate-LaBianca murders

Testimony during his trial for murder [not on the witness stand at trial, however; he never took the stand]

 * These children that come at you with knives they are your children at all times. You taught them all they know about this world. I didn't teach them, you did. I just tried to help them stand up when they were too weak.

 * My father is the jailhouse. My father is your system.... I am only what you made me. I am only a reflection of you.

 * Some called me Christ. In prison my name was a number. Some now want a sadistic fiend, and so they see me as that. So be it. Guilty. Not guilty. They are only words. You can do anything you want with me, but you cannot touch me because I am only my love.

 * You are going to use this courtroom to kill me? I am going to fight for my life one way or another. You should let me do it with words.

 * It's all your fear. You look for something to project it on, and you pick out a little old scroungy nobody that eats out of a garbage can, and that nobody wants, that was kicked out of the penitentiary, that has been dragged through every hellhole that you can think of, and you drag him and put him in a courtroom.

 * In fact, it makes me mad when someone kills snakes or dogs or cats or horses. I don't even like to eat meat — that is how much I am against killing....

 * I will have you removed if you don't stop. I have a little system of my own.
 * Said to judge during trial

 * Dead in your mind or dead in my mind?
 * When asked by the prosecution whether he was dead

 * Most of the people at the ranch that you call 'The Family' were just people that you did not want, people that were alongside the road, that their parents had kicked them out or they did not want to go to Juvenile Hall, so I did the best I could and I took them up on my garbage dump and I told them this: that in love there is no wrong.

 * I was working at cleaning up my house, something that Nixon should've been doing. He should have been on the road picking up his children, but he wasn't. He was in the White House, sending them off to war...

 * But I know this: that in your hearts and your own souls, you are as much responsible for the Vietnam war as I am for killing these people.

 * You eat meat and you kill things that are better than you are, and then you say how bad, and even killers, your children are. You made your children what they are....

 * I have done my best to get along in your world and now you want to kill me, and I look at you, and then I say to myself, you want to kill me? Ha! I'm already dead, have been all my life. I've spent twenty-three years in tombs that you built.

 * If I could get angry at you, I would try to kill every one of you. If that's guilt, I accept it.

 * You expect to break me? Impossible! You broke me years ago. You killed me years ago...

 * If you put me in the penitentiary, that means nothing because you kicked me out of the last one. I didn't ask to get released. I liked it in there because I like myself.

 * Is it a conspiracy that the music is telling the youth to rise up against the establishment because the establishment is rapidly destroying things? Is that a conspiracy? The music speaks to you every day, but you are too deaf, dumb, and blind to even listen to the music. . . It is not my conspiracy. It is not my music. I hear what it relates. It says "Rise," it says "Kill." Why blame it on me? I didn't write the music.

 * I can't judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.

 * I can't dislike you, but I will say this to you: you haven't got long before you are all going to kill yourselves, because you are all crazy. And you can project it back at me ... but I am only what lives inside each and every one of you.

 * I don't think like you people. You people put importance on your lives. Well, my life has never been important to anyone...

 * I'm not sorry, this is what you deserve.

 * I have killed no one and I have ordered no one to be killed.

Revolver (film)

Revolver is a 2005 film centered on a revenge-seeking confidence trickster whose weapon is a universal formula that guarantees victory to its user, when applied to any game or confidence trick. This is the third feature film by Ritchie which is centered on crime and professional criminals.

 * ''Written and directed by Guy Ritchie.

Your mind will not accept a game this big (taglines)

Jake Green

 * There is something about yourself that you don't know. Something that you will deny even exists, until it's too late to do anything about it. It's the only reason you get up in the morning. The only reason you suffer the shitty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please, think I'm special. We share an addiction. We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip-hip-hoo-fuckin' rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on you crazy diamond, because we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others.
 * One thing I've learned in the last seven years: in every game and con there's always an opponent, and there's always a victim. The trick is to know when you're the latter, so you can become the former.
 * [In an elevator] Now I've got to spend the next two minutes, shaking... and sweating... like a crack whore clucking for a fix... Should have taken the stairs... cause it's getting very... very tight in here.
 * Oh, I know you're still there... cause I can feel you dying. I can hear you tapping me... for a little nutrition. Now who's looking for a fix? It gets a little tight in here, do you? Well, you're not wrong... cause the walls are moving in. No food here. Not today, sunshine. My eyes are open and the restaurant's closed. Jog on. Slide off. Find someone else to fill your pipe. Someone, who won't see you coming... or know, when you're there.
 * Why are they dragging this on? They could just clean me out in one hit. They want me to suffer. These twisted bastards are making me pay. Pay for my own pain. Hands down, that's the most radical concept I have ever heard of......and a part of me dies everytime I think about it. I told myself if this is the last round, they'll have to tear me out, piece by piece, but this I can't take. They've found a weakness. Caught me fair and square, cross-haired, blind-folded, one foot in the grave and two hands on the coffin. I'm cooked, well done, stick a fork in me and see if I bleed. I'm stuck in a trance...somewhere between hell and a hard place...in a gear that doesn't exist, and all I want now...is a little peace.

Macha

 * So how exactly did this one manage to disarm and overpower a four-time national bodybuilding champion? Drag him half a block, throw him over six-foot wall, and then fed him to his own gun?
 * Why don't you just fucking rape me, Paul?
 * You got a big mouth, on small head “Sunshine”!

Avi

 * The greatest con, that he ever pulled... was making you believe... that he is you.

Quote Request
In the movie, I remember a sequence where Picard is fighting off Romulans while Data tries to open the doors to the shuttlebay. Data comments on the language of the controls, and Picard says something like, "While I find that very interesting Mr. Data, we really need that door open." Can someone authenticate and expand this to include the preceding dialogue (Data's) and post it in the article? Thanks! -- Tuvok ^ Talk  04:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Brian J. Mistler is an American writer and philosopher.

George W. Bush and Osama bin Laden Are Dancing Together (2003)
George W. Bush and Osama bin Laden Are Dancing Together: Interdependent Group Polarization in the Case of September 11

 * The problem with all bivalent notions is that they collapse without their polar opposite. When we define our ‘self’ against the ‘other’, we come to need the other. And, when, in the absence of a true opposite, one is contrived, our conception of ourselves becomes as distorted as our concept of the other. Ultimately this process of defining ourselves against the ‘other’ only serves to strengthen the other’s position.

 * I suggest the importance of developing common identity in overcoming the negative consequences of polarization.

 * Like a dance, conflict escalation generally requires the participation of both parties.

Esperanza
This is supposed to be an en:Wikiquote branch of the Esperanza wiki-project, whose goals (according to w:Wikipedia:Esperanza, generalized) are "to be a place Wikimedians can turn to for hope, help, and reassurance". I've only had the most trivial interactions with WP's project, but I can see four important points: Wikiquote hardly needs new social networking projects to distract from its purpose. We spend enough time deleting edits and articles from newbies who think we're "MySpace for Quotations". Now an editor brand-new to Wikimedia in general has nominated himself "President" of Wikiquote:Esperanza. While one can appreciate his enthusiasm, I'm afraid it's totally misplaced and has nothing to do with Wikiquote's goal of creating an accurate, well-sourced compendium of quotations from notable people and creative works. And we don't have any bandwith from experienced editors to establish and maintain such a controversial project, anyway. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 20:10, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Membership is open to people with "about" 150+ edits and 2 weeks' experience; i.e., someone who's gotten some basic experience with Wikimedia project editing.
 * WP:ESP has an elected council. It is not an ad hoc WikiProject.
 * 1) The creator of this current page, User:Sir James Paul, not only doesn't have any of these qualifications here, and indeed has engaged in several kinds of newbie editing mistakes (like unformatted quote article creation and adding his own quotes to a WQ article), but also fails to meet WP:ESP's membership requirements as well, as he only has about 110 edits and 8 days' experience there.
 * 2) The whole idea of Esperanza is under review (see w:Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Esperanza) because it is being used as a social network instead of a Wikimedia-purposed assistance project, siphoning effort away from actual project work.

 * Vote closed: Result: Delete. Fys. “Ta fys aym”. 12:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 20:10, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Strong KeepTo start off with I am a member of Esperanza on BOTH wikipedia's. I am very familar with how it works. I also want to make something that is not 100% similar to the ones on wikipedia. It is not the exact same project. The only thing that is different is that it has a president and vice president, everthing else is the same. I have asked people from wikipedia's Esperanza to come and help me so I will have people who the guy would consider creadable. This project is not a social network, its a group of people who are trying to make wikiquote a more friendly place. I pray that you will keep it.--Sir James Paul 20:34, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
 * w:User:Sir james paul added his own name to w:Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members. If he was formally approved as a member before doing this, then WP:ESP doesn't follow its own incredibly modest guidelines. If he merely added his name, then WP:ESP isn't adequately checking those guidelines. Either way, there's something wrong with the project. I'm not saying anyone should engage in wiki-lawyering, but it's a fundamentally foolish thing to allow people with inadequate understanding of the problems and stresses of an activity to dole out advice and support to regular practioners. And newcomers already have w:Wikipedia:New contributors' help page there, as well as Village pump here. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 22:06, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I believe that, whatever the purpose of this project, its tendency would in practice be towards turning WQ into a mere chatroom. Antiquary 22:13, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I echo everything that has been said about Sir James Paul's good intentions. However, I do not see the point of Esperanza. I have never joined it on Wikipedia and my experience of it there is that it does little except constantly have elections: and elections (which are something of a specialist subject of mine) do little to advance unity and much to increase competition. The whole group of Wikiquote editors should be welcoming and encouraging of new participants, not just the members of a project. We want new editors to think of what they can do to improve our quote collection, not further an internal project. Delete. Fys. “Ta fys aym”. 22:15, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Outside Comment - Due to Sir John Paul's and my (w:simple:User:PullToOpen) experiences at simple.wikipedia, it is clear that he wants to be in charge of something. My guess is he just picked a project at random and started a group that seemed successful on english (and exists on simple, but isn't really doing much). Look, I would just delete this and move on. I am sorry, Sir John Paul, but this really shouldn't be here. I would vote delete, but this comment is my only edit on this project, and probably will be for a while. PullToOpen 00:49, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Outside comment I've been told by several ex-esperanza coordinators that the original organisation on en.wikipedia is currently in a fairly sub-optimal state. It's probably not a good idea to spread the concept further until the bugs have been taken out. 80.126.238.189 00:56, 20 November 2006 (UTC) / en:Kim Bruning

 * This is different than Esperanza on wikipedia. It does not reapeat the same mistakes that the wikipedia Esperanza does. The administrator who is trying to get this deleted does not know much about any of the Esperanzas.--Sir James Paul 03:40, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment: The following was posted by a Wikipedia Esperanzan in response to a complaint I lodged on the WP Esperanza MfD talk page. I have copied it here, changing only the wiki links to point to the original WP pages. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 10:22, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Firstly, this was never discussed nor approved by anyone on the Wikipedia Esperanza. This user did it entirely by himself.  He never discussed it on Wikiquote, is obviously not a strong member of their community, and screwed up big time. I'm sorry this happened.  Nextly, Esperanza is undergoing severe changes on Wikipedia, so it was dumb to do this before all the changes were made.  Personally, I see no use for a wikiquote Esperanza; but that's your call, not mine.  I only do a very small amount of Wikiquote work, only for Dragonlance.  I do not consider myself part of your community, so it's not my decision.  Please accept my apologies on behalf of Esperanza.  Just for the record, if you'd like to check out how Esperanza on Wikipedia is shaping up, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/Overhaul for some info.   Dooms  Day349  01:49, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. ~ UDScott 14:09, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. We don't really have the numbers that would be needed to sustain such an effort even if we decided to move forward, and really, I don't believe that any sort of "lack of community" is a problem here, at least not in the sense that wasting effort on community-building would yield gains in the number of active editors. —LrdChaos (talk) 15:29, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * 'Delete Wikiquote does not suffer from the edit warring and in-fighting that led some people to believe that Esperanza was needed over there. Thus it is entirely futile for it to exist here. Dev920 16:53, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Esperanza looks to be merely a distraction from our work here. - InvisibleSun 19:08, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

 * All Esperanza is, is a group of editors who want wikiquote to be a friendly place. IT IS NOT LIKE THE ESPERANZA ON WIKIPEDIA. Your only job as a member is to be friendly. JeffQ knows nothing about the wikiquote version of Esperanza. It is not the same as wikipedia esperanza. Thanks.--Sir James Paul 20:20, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * James, I don't see how you can say that the Wikiquote Esperanza is different from the Wikipedia Esperanza because there basically isn't a Wikiquote Esperanza. Sure, there's the page we're discussing now, but a single page does not a project, or a community, make. I also don't see what substantial difference there would be between your proposed Esperanza and the Wikipedia one; your page seems to copy the text of the w:Wikipedia:Esperanza page, and if you're starting from the same set of guidelines and principles, isn't it reasonable to expect that the end result will be similar? I also think that, everything else aside, a goal of "20 members" and a "9 member[]" council is far too ambitious for any subproject at Wikiquote; I would be surprised if you would be able to find 20 currently-active Wikiquote editors who meet the criteria for membership. Wikiquote is not nearly as large or as active as Wikipedia, and I would hypothesize that we have a significantly smaller ratio of registered editors to anonymous editors than Wikipedia does. —LrdChaos (talk) 20:30, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per arguments above. -- Robert 03:56, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

 * JeffQ does not know anything about wikiquote Esperanza. This Esperanza is not like that Esperanza on wikipedia. This project is a group of editors who agree to follow a set of rules. Some of wich are to work hard, be kind, and stay away from edit wars. This whole thing is a big misunderstanding.--Sir James Paul 16:08, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
 * James, those are basically the guidelines for Wikimedia projects anyway. Also, you are still claiming that people "know nothing" about the Wikiquote Esperanza, that it's different from Wikipedia's, and that people just aren't seeing that. I mentioned this above, but I'll say it again: people don't understand Wikiquote Esperanza because there is no Wikiquote Esperanza. For any project to succeed here, it needs to have some support from the community; at a minimum, it needs to be accepted the community, or else is has no standing as a project and is just a series of pages in a wiki. So far, the overwhelming consensus is not accepting your proposed project, and so all you have are a few pages in a wiki. —LrdChaos (talk) 16:30, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per all above. (Should this be closed per WP:SNOW?)
 * Wikiquote has no equivalent of WP:SNOW and hasn't really observed it in practice. Unlike WP, we have a fixed minimum consideration time (largely due to the small, infrequently editing community), and have had no community call for early termination of VfDs except in the case of clear speedy-deletion situations (which are still fairly new in practice). It's probably best to let this run its course. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 00:42, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

 * The goal of Esperanza is to make wwikiquote a better place. Esperanza members will do this by doing three thing, by reverting vandalism and keep it from happening, being friendly to other editors, and by working hard. Esperanza will encourage these things by giving out rewards. Esperanza will reward you for the following things, reverting vandalism, being kind, working hard, and will also reward the best article. The people/article names will be on the Esperanza page. Giving out rewards will bost confidence in editors and help them feel welcomed. It is false when Jeffq says that wikiquote Esperanza is just like the Esperanza on wikipedia, it is also false that wikiquote:Esperanza does not exist.--Sir James Paul 18:04, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
 * but is there an epidemic of vandalism and unfriendliness in Wikiquote that makes the existence of Esperanza necessary? methinks this is a solution without a problem. Unbelievable 18:10, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
 * James, you say that "it is […] false that wikiquote:Esperanza does not exist." While I grant that, at the current time, a page titled Esperanza does exist, that does not mean that the project does. As I said, there is more to a project that simply having a page in a wiki. Right now, it's a project with one member (you) and thus far unanimous opposition from the community. I think that you need to take a step back and take a long look at Wikipedia and Wikiquote, and note the significant differences between the two. For one thing, Wikiquote is much smaller than Wikipedia, and so there's a certain sense of community that simply develops out of that. For example, I can name most, if not all, of the widely active editors at Wikiquote, and I could probably count them all on one hand. Compare this to Wikipedia, where there are hundreds, if not thousands, of widely active contribtors. (By "widely active", I mean editors who involve themselves in several parts of the site, as opposed to lots of work to a very small number of pages, most of which are related to each other.) On Wikiquote, as opposed to Wikipedia, it's nearly impossible to become "lost in the crowd", as it were. It's possible to load Special:Recentchanges, then come back an hour later and refresh the page, and see some of the same edits on that page, as compared to Wikipedia, which is currently showing 21 seconds worth of activity in 50 edits. I also disagree that any sort of "reward" system is needed. For one thing, I feel that people work best when the work itself is its own reward, rather than being motivated by something like a reward (whether it be a barnstar or a salary). That said, I acknowledge that there are a lot of people who feel differently, and there is certainly no shortage of people who are willing to perform some task solely for the promise of a reward. However, considering that Wikiquote, like Wikipedia, is a strictly-volunteer project, there aren't many rewards that can be offered that are an incentive to do good work; one's desire for a barnstar isn't likely to be a significantly motivating factor in their work on Wikipedia, for instance. Rather, rewards of that type help to serve as recognition of good work, when it's done. Again, differences between Wikiquote and Wikipedia make this a different beast all together. I would say that for those of us who are presently active on Wikiquote, we're doing what we do ("reverting vandalism, being kind, working hard") because we like the mission of Wikiquote and we would like to make that succeed.  I, for one, don't need to be "rewarded" with an image of a star on my user page for the work I do. I think that this also goes back to the "Wikipedia large, Wikiquote small" issue I raised above. Since Wikiquote is so much smaller, it's much easier for people to see who's consistently doing good work. I do hope that you're reading my responses, James, because I haven't seen you reply to any of my points yet. For all your claims that we don't understand Esperanza, you haven't addressed any of the points that I've seen myself or anyone else raise about it; you just once again claim that we don't understand. Perhaps if you tried to tell us why we're wrong, or what we're missing, people would be more receptive to what you have to say. —LrdChaos (talk) 18:40, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you that we do not have problems with vandalism, people being unfriendly, and people being lazzy yet but if we have wikiquote Esperanza these problems will not happen as quick. Another thing is that Esperanza will not only give people awards for furthering these causes but will also terminate the membership of people who vandaliz, are rude/blocked, and who are not active. These people will also go on a list. If a lot of members join this it will send a powerful message to rude members, vandals, and people who are lazzy. Another thing is that all I am is the interm president. Once we are able to have a election the members will vote for who they want as president and vice president.--Sir James Paul 19:06, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Trust me - the existence of Esperanza does not and will not deter vandalism or laziness. Vandals will vandalize, and lazy people will continue to be lazy whether or not there is a page at Esperanza. --24.29.141.11 01:12, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

The goal of wikiquote:Esperanza is to make wikiquote the best it can be. All members of Esperanza agree to revert vandalism and keep it from becoming a problem, to be friendly to everyone, and to work hard. We will encourage reverting vandalism, being friendly, and working hard by giving out monthly rewards and by putting the people who got them on the site. We will also do the same for the best article. This will make the members feel welcomed at wikiquote wich is important because thay are less apt to work hard if they do not feel welcomed. Once we get 5 members we will hold a election for president and vice president. Esperanza will not only help wikiquote but it will also give a good example to the Esperanza on wikipedia and if they take this ones example and make there Esperanza more like ours then that will improve wikiquote. Esperanza will keep problems like vandalism and edit wars from becoming major problems in wikiquote. To find out more ask me on my talk page. Thanks and god bless.--Sir James Paul 19:14, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

This week we are not just voting on Esperanza but we are also voting on the future of Esperanza. If you vote not to make Esperanza a project on wikiquote you really will not see any changes right away but a few years down the rode we will have more members, that will mean that we will have more unfriendly users, more vandalism, and more inactive users. If you vote to make Esperanza a project at wikiquote we will have less problems in the future. You may not need a Esperanza now but if you vote to make it a project then our problems will not be as bad. If you want major problems then do not make this a project, but if you want the status quo then vote to make Esperanza a project.--Sir James Paul 19:23, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Wikiquote doesn't HAVE any vandalism or unfriendly users. And even if it does, Esperanza won't help against that. You said "All members of Esperanza agree to revert vandalism and keep it from becoming a problem, to be friendly to everyone, and to work hard." Everyone on Wikiquote does that anyway. Flooding Wikiquote with ubiquitous "e"s won't change a thing. Dev920 08:22, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

On wikiquote:Esperanza I am just the interm president, and if people vote to keep Esperanza I will have a election for president and vice president. I can not pick the vice president, the members have to vote for him, if I picked him then I would be breaking the charter. The mission of Esperanza is to make wikiquote more friendly, fight vandalism and keep it from becoming a problem, and make the number of articles grow and to make the quality of the articles better.--Sir James Paul 19:25, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

 * outside commentI agree with Sir James Paul when he says that this will keep wikiquote from having problems in the future. ~

 * This IP address is obviously Sir James Paul logged out. Only edits are nominating Sir James Paul for president, changing votes on this page to keep, and trying to extend the closing date. This is ridiculous. Archer7 22:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Wikiquote administrators are neither collectively nor individually naifs and such a suggestion is therefore not one which has not already occurred to me. However, we do 'assume good faith'. If a stern warning stops a user disrupting, and friendly guidance helps them contribute constructively, then so much the better. We only block if we absolutely have to.

This comes frrom the wikipedia simple english Esperanza talk page.I think Esperanza contributes very much to the wikipedia."" The rest of the quote talks about barnstars and is irrevelent. This was by Life of Brian. --Sir James Paul 14:52, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * You may need to reread that sentance.. it says "Wikipedia" not "Wikiquote".. Wikiquote is to small to maintain a project like Esperanza, there is also no need for an "Esperanza" here - It failed at Wikipedia and it will fail here - Where already seeing corruption with its 1 "member" declaring him self "President". They can barely maintain an esperanza at simple wikipedia.. what amkes you think you could maintain one here? People already revert vandalism so no silly project such as a CVU is required for that.. there is already a community here.. and people don't need "rewards, a.k.a barnstars" for there work to be recognized here. MatthewFenton 16:47, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

 * And the user 'The life of brian' has actually said to you that he doesn't like the idea of Esperanza on Wikiquote. Archer7 20:02, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza/Charter
Another creation of, who won't let any advice or logic get in the way of his need to run an Esperanza project. He can't even be bothered to use correct namespaces and titles — I had to move this page from The Charter of Esperanza, which was inappropriately created in the article namespace. (If I didn't think he was just a naive user, I'd swear he's going through a list of Wikimedia policies and practices to see how many he can violate in as little time as possible.) The same arguments presented in WQ:VFD apply here as well, but I didn't want to add another page to that nomination because there has been a lot of activity there, and I felt it would be misleading to tack this on this late.

We try to present articles in the form they were nominated, or as they are fixed during the discussion. It's mostly irrelevant in this case, but leaving it in place is still best for the discussion, especially as it has a note to make it clear it is not official Wikiquote policy. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 08:05, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Kramer vs. Kramer

Kramer vs. Kramer is a 1979 film about a divorce and its impact on everyone involved, including the couple's young son. It received five Academy Awards at the 52nd Academy Awards in 1980, in the categories of Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
 * Directed and written by Robert Benton, adapted from the novel by Avery Corman.

Ted Kramer

 * [having lunch with his boss] So the other morning, I'm at the refrigerator... you know, getting Billy ready for school. So I'm just in my underwear and he notices I've lost weight. And he comes in and pats me. He comes up to here... [touches his stomach]... and he says "Daddy, you've really lost a lot of weight", he looks up at me and he says "And it's all gone to your nose." [laughs] He was so cute. You know?

 * [in court] There's a lot of things I didn't understand, a lot of things I'd do different if I could. Just like I think there's a lot of things you wish you could change, but we can't. Some things once they're done can't be undone. My wife, my ex-wife, says that she loves Billy, and I believe she does, but I don't think that's the issue here. If I understand it correctly, what means the most here is what's best for our son. What's best for Billy. My wife used to always say to me: 'Why can't a woman have the same ambitions as a man?' I think you're right. And maybe I've learned that much. But by the same token, I'd like to know, what law is it that says that a woman is a better parent simply by virtue of her sex? You know, I've had a lot of time to think about what it is it that makes somebody a good parent? You know, it has to do with constancy, it has to do with patience, it has to do with listening to him. It has to do with pretending to listen to him when you can't even listen anymore. It has to do with love, like, like, like she was saying. And I don't know where it's written that it says that a woman has a corner on that market, that, that a man has any less of those emotions than a woman does.  Billy has a home with me. I've made it the best I could. It's not perfect. I'm not a perfect parent. Sometimes I don't have enough patience because I forget that he's a little kid. But I'm there. We get up in the morning and then we eat breakfast, and he talks to me and then we go to school. And at night, we have dinner together and we talk then and I read to him. And, and we built a life together and we love each other. If you destroy that, it may be irreparable. Joanna, don't do that, please. Don't do it twice to him.

Dialogue

 * Joanna Kramer: I love you, Billy.
 * Billy Kramer: I love you too, Mommy.

 * Ted Kramer: For the last six months I've been spitting blood to get this agency one of the biggest account it's ever had. And at five o'clock this afternoon, we got the account. At eight o'clock, I am walking home with the vice president and tells me I'll be the next creative director of this department. I come through this door to share with my wife one of the five best days of my life, and she looks at me and tells me she doesn't want to live with me anymore!. Can't you understand what she's done to me?
 * Margaret Phelps: Yeah, She loused up one of the five best days of your life.
 * Ted Kramer: You're terrific. Boy, you're.... thanks very much, really. Sisterhood.

 * Ted Kramer: Margaret, I just need to know something. Did you set my wife up to this?
 * Margaret Phelps: No, I did not put Joanna up to this.
 * Ted Kramer: Give her a little pep talk, maybe?
 * Margaret Phelps: Joanna is a very unhappy woman and it took a lot of courage for her to walk out of here.
 * Ted Kramer: Really. How much courage does it take to walk out on your kid?

 * Billy Kramer: When's mommy coming back?
 * Ted Kramer: I don't know, Billy, soon.
 * Billy Kramer: How soon?
 * Ted Kramer: Soon.
 * Billy Kramer: Will she pick me up after school?
 * Ted Kramer: Probably. And if she doesn't I will.
 * Billy Kramer: What if you forget?
 * Ted Kramer: I won't forget.
 * Billy Kramer: What if you get run over by a truck and get killed?
 * Ted Kramer: Then Mommy will pick you up.

 * [Phyllis, naked, leaves the bedroom to use the bathroom. She runs into Billy, who is en route to the same place]
 * Billy Kramer, Phyllis Bernard: [simultaneously] Hi.
 * Billy Kramer: What's your name?
 * Phyllis Bernard: I'm Phyllis Bernard.
 * Billy Kramer: Who?
 * Phyllis Bernard: I'm a friend... uh, business associate of your father's... dad.
 * Ted Kramer: [In the bedroom] Oh, Jesus.
 * Billy Kramer: Do you like fried chicken?
 * Phyllis Bernard: Fried chicken? Very much.
 * Billy Kramer: So do I.
 * Phyllis Bernard: Uhm... well, it's really... It's been nice seeing you and...
 * Billy Kramer: Bye.
 * Phyllis Bernard: Bye.
 * [Phyllis comes back to the bedroom]
 * Phyllis Bernard: Kramer, I just met your son.

 * [Ted and Billy are having dinner]
 * Ted Kramer: How was school today?
 * Billy Kramer: Same as usual.
 * Ted Kramer: Hey, I see the Knicks finally won a game, what do you know?
 * Billy Kramer: I don't care.
 * Ted Kramer: What do you mean?
 * Billy Kramer: I like Boston.
 * Ted Kramer: Boston? Why do you like Boston?
 * Billy Kramer: 'Cause Mommy's from Boston.

 * Ted Kramer: [while Billy brings ice cream to the table] Now you listen to me! Don't be smart now. You go right back and put that back until you finish your dinner... I'm warning you, you take one bite out of that and you're in big trouble. Don't... Hey! Don't you dare... Don't you dare do that. You hear me? Hey! Stop-- Hold it right there! You put that ice cream in your mouth and you are in very, very, very big trouble! Don't you dare go anywhere beyond that... Put it down right now. I am not going to say it again. I am not going to say it again!
 * [Billy eats ice cream]
 * Ted Kramer: [loses his temper, gets up from the chair to snatch Billy up and cart him toward his bedroom as punishment] I had enough!
 * Billy Kramer: [shrieking] Ow! You're hurting me! [kicks Ted]
 * Ted Kramer: [raging madly] OW! Don't you kick me!
 * Billy Kramer: I hate you!
 * [Ted kicks the door open as they reach the bedroom]
 * Ted Kramer: [furious] Well, you're no bargain either, pal! You are a spoiled, rotten little brat and I'll tell you right now... [unceremoniously dumps him on the bed]
 * Billy Kramer: [Yelling furiously] I HATE YOU!!!
 * Ted Kramer: [still Mad, ignoring Billy's rant] AND I HATE YOU BACK, YOU LITTLE SHIT!!! [storms out of the room]
 * Billy Kramer: [crying] I WANT MY MOMMY!!!!
 * Ted Kramer: [heartlessly] I'm all you got. [slams the door]
 * Billy Kramer: [does a tantrum] I want my mommy!

 * Billy Kramer: Daddy?
 * Ted Kramer: Yeah?
 * Billy Kramer: I'm sorry.
 * Ted Kramer: I'm sorry too. I want you to go to sleep because it's really late.
 * Billy Kramer: Daddy?
 * Ted Kramer: Now what is it?
 * Billy Kramer: Are you going away?
 * Ted Kramer: No. I'm staying here with you. You can't get rid of me that easy.
 * Billy Kramer: That's why Mommy left, isn't it? Because I was bad?
 * Ted Kramer: Is that what you think? No. That's not it, Billy. Your mom loves you very much... and the reason she left has nothing to do with you. I don't know if this will make sense, but I'll try to explain it to you. I think the reason why Mommy left... was because for a long time... I kept trying to make her be a certain kind of person. A certain kind of wife that I thought she was supposed to be. And she just wasn't like that. She was... She just wasn't like that. I think that she tried for so long to make me happy... and when she couldn't, she tried to talk to me about it. But I wasn't listening. I was too busy, too wrapped up... just thinking about myself. And I thought that anytime I was happy, she was happy. But I think underneath she was very sad. Mommy stayed here longer than she wanted because she loves you so much. And the reason why Mommy couldn't stay anymore... was because she couldn't stand me. She didn't leave because of you. She left because of me. Go to sleep now because it's really late, okay? Good night. Sleep tight.
 * Billy Kramer: Don't let the bedbugs bite.
 * Ted Kramer: See you in the morning light.
 * Billy Kramer: Daddy?
 * Ted Kramer: Yeah?
 * Billy Kramer: I love you.
 * Ted Kramer: I love you too.

 * [Joanna returns to New York]
 * Joanna Kramer: All my life I've felt like...somebody's wife or somebody's mother, somebody's daughter. Even all the time we were together I never knew who I was. And that's why I had to go away. And in California, I think I found myself. I got myself a job. I got myself a therapist, a really good one. And I feel better about myself than I ever have in my whole life. I learned a great deal about myself.
 * Ted Kramer: Such as?... No, really, I'd really like to know what you learned.
 * Joanna Kramer: Well, I've learned that I love my little boy. And that I'm capable of taking care of him.
 * Ted Kramer: What do you mean?
 * Joanna Kramer: I want my son.
 * Ted Kramer: You can't have him
 * Joanna Kramer: Don't get defensive. Don't try to bully me.
 * Ted Kramer: I'm not getting defensive. Who walked out 15 months ago?
 * Joanna Kramer: I don't care. I'm still his mother.
 * Ted Kramer: Yeah, from 300 miles away. And because you sent post cards gives you the right to come back?
 * Joanna Kramer: I never stopped wanting him.
 * Ted Kramer: What makes you sure he wants you?
 * Joanna Kramer: What makes you sure he doesn't want me?
 * Ted Kramer: Okay look. We're gonna sit here and bat this back and forth. It's like old times.
 * Joanna Kramer: You can't deny me...
 * Ted Kramer: Don't tell me what I can or cannot do! Don't talk to me that way!
 * Joanna Kramer: I anticipated this.
 * Ted Kramer: Okey look, I don't want to hear this. Do what you have to. I'll do what I have to.
 * Joanna Kramer: Fine... I am very sorry about this.
 * Ted Kramer: Okey, just do what you have to do.

 * [Ted Kramer hires a lawyer]
 * Ted Kramer: I don't know the legal jargon for it, but I think it's "desertion." I don't mean to tell you your job, but I think I have an open-and-shut case.
 * John Shaunessy: Well, at first Mr. Kramer, there's no such thing as an open-and- shut case where custody is involved. I'll bet your ex-wife has already found a lawyer who's advised her to move back to establish residency. The burden is on us to prove that your ex-wife is an unfit mother. That means I'll have to play rough. If I play rough, you can bet they will too. Can you take that?
 * Ted Kramer: Yes.
 * John Shaunessy: And it's going to cost you $15,000.

 * [Ted Kramer gets fired]
 * Ted Kramer: You're firing me?
 * Jim O'Connor: Yeah, I'm letting you go, yes.
 * Ted Kramer: Why?
 * Jim O'Connor: Now, look, Ted, this is a very painful thing for me. You don't know how badly I feel,. I've been getting a lot of pressure from the guys upstairs, and there wasn't anything else I could do. I thought a lot about this and it's really better this way. If I took your stripes... if I put you on a schlock account, you'd hate it, and me for doing it. This way it's a clean break. And believe me, that's the best thing.
 * Ted Kramer: You know my wife is fighting me for custody?. You know that we're going to court?. Do you know what my chances are if I'm out of a job?.
 * Jim O'Connor: Look, I understand that you're upset...
 * Ted Kramer: I don't want to beg, but I'm asking you, please, as a friend. Ah?... I'm asking you.
 * Jim O'Connor: You're an extremely bright guy. You've got a hell of a talent. You're gonna land on your feet. You're gonna survive...Teddy, look. I know you may be short on cash. No big hurry about paying this back.
 * Ted Kramer: Shame on you.

 * Joanna Kramer: I woke up this morning, kept thinking about Billy and I-I was thinking about him waking up in his room with his little clouds all around that I painted. And I thought I should have painted clouds downtown, because then he would think that he was waking up at home. I came here to take my son home. And I realized he already is home. Oh, I love him very much. [Joanna and Ted hug] I'm not gonna take him with me. Can I go up and talk to him?...
 * Ted Kramer: Listen why don't you go upstairs and see him and I'll wait here.
 * Joanna Kramer: [wipes the tears from her eyes and pats her hair] How do I look?
 * Ted Kramer: You look terrific.

Warcraft is a series of computer games, novels, and an announced movie. As the name implies, the Warcraft universe largely revolves around conflict.

Reign of Chaos (2002)

 * We never paid any heed to the ancient prophecies...like fools we clung to the old hatreds...and fought as we had for generations. Until the day the sky rained fire, and a new enemy came upon us. We stand now, upon the brink of destruction, for the reign of chaos has come at last.
 * The Prophet, opening cinematic

 * This kingdom shall fall, and from the ashes shall arise a new order that will shake the very foundations of the world!
 * Arthas, after stabbing King Terenas

 * To arms, my brethren! To arms, brave orcs and humans! Twilight falls, and the enemy awaits.
 * Malfurion Stormrage, before the final battle against Archimonde

The Frozen Throne (2003)

 * Betrayer...in truth, it was I who was betrayed. Still, I am hunted. Still, I am hated. Now, my blind eyes see what others cannot. That sometimes the hand of fate must be forced!
 * Illidan Stormrage, opening cinematic

Unsorted

 * Noble countrymen, evil is upon us. Darkness has befallen our shores. Rise and slay thy enemies… strike, strike so others shall live. The meek shall not fade into the night… live my brethren, live.
 * King Terenas

 * The beginning of wisdom is the statement 'I do not know.' The person who cannot make that statement is one who will never learn anything. And I have prided myself on my ability to learn.
 * Thrall
 * We don't go do stupid things when somebody yells, 'For the Horde'.

Jeane Kirkpatrick

Jeane Jordan Kirkpatrick (November 19, 1926 – December 7, 2006) was an American conservative political scientist and member of the neoconservative movement. After serving as Ronald Reagan's foreign policy adviser in his 1980 campaign, she was nominated as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and was the first woman to hold this position.

Quotes

 * Americans need to face the truth about themselves, no matter how pleasant it is.
 * As quoted in "America in the World" (3 August 2020), by Jay Nordlinger, National Review

Dictatorships and Double Standards (1979)

 * "Dictatorships and Double Standards" (November 1979), Commentary, New York

 * Traditional autocrats leave in place existing allocations of wealth, power, status, and other re- sources which in most traditional societies favor an affluent few and maintain masses in poverty. But they worship traditional gods and observe traditional taboos. They do not disturb the habitual rhythms of work and leisure, habitual places of residence, habitual patterns of family and personal relations. Because the miseries of traditional life are familiar, they are bearable to ordinary people who, growing up in the society, learn to cope, as children born to untouchables in India acquire the skills and attitudes necessary for survival in the miserable roles they are destined to fill.

 * Vietnam presumably taught us that the United States could not serve as the world’s policeman; it should also have taught us the dangers of trying to be the world’s midwife to democracy when the birth is scheduled to take place under conditions of guerrilla war.
 * As quoted in The Columbia World of Quotations (1996)

 * No idea holds greater sway in the minds of educated Americans that the belief that it is possible to democratize governments anytime and anywhere under any circumstances.
 * As quoted in The Economist (23 December 2006), p. 131

 * The speed with which armies collapse, bureaucracies abdicate, and social structures dissolve once the autocrat is removed frequently surprises American Policy makers.
 * As quoted in The Economist (23 December 2006), p. 131

 * Decades, if not centuries are normally required for people to acquire the necessary disciplines and habits [for democracy]. In Britain, the road [to democratic government] took seven centuries to traverse.
 * As quoted in The Economist (23 December 2006), p. 131

1980s

 * And now, the American people, proud of our country, proud of our freedom, proud of ourselves, will reject the San Francisco Democrats and send Ronald Reagan back to the White House.
 * Address to the 1984 Republican National Convention (1984), Dallas

 * When our Marines, sent to Lebanon on a multinational peacekeeping mission with the consent of the United States Congress, were murdered in their sleep, the "blame America first crowd" didn't blame the terrorists who murdered the Marines, they blamed the United States. But then, they always blame America first. ...  The American people know better.
 * Address to the 1984 Republican National Convention (1984), Dallas

 * When Marxist dictators shoot their way into power in Central America, the San Francisco Democrats don't blame the guerrillas and their Soviet allies. They blame United States policies of 100 years ago. But then they always blame America first.
 * As quoted in The Washington Times (15 May 2006)

 * Neither nature, experience, nor probability informs these lists of "entitlements", which are subject to no constraints except those of the mind and appetite of their authors.
 * About a report of the Human Rights Commission in Geneva, which she termed "a letter to Santa Claus", Legitimacy and Force (1988), p. 130, as quoted in A Human Rights Approach to Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes, by Peter L. Pellett

 * Russia is playing chess, while we are playing Monopoly. The only question is whether they will checkmate us before we bankrupt them.
 * Speech given during the 1988 Barrick Lecture Series, at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas

Quotes about Kirkpatrick

 * Jean Kirkpatrick [is] the chief sadist-in-residence of the Reagan Administration
 * Noam Chomsky, The Empire and Ourselves, A Solidarity Pamphlet (April 9, 1986)

 * The right to free speech./Jeanne Kirkpatrick walks out when students hiss./She has the right to free speech/any time/anywhere/because she defends/U.S. imperialism./But Merle Woo?/Merle Woo gets fired/from the classroom./She speaks about democracy./For students, staff and faculty. Against censorship./For a Third World College. Against cultural genocide./For lesbians and gays. Against heterosexism./For the possibility of all our voices,/in all languages, singing out.
 * Nellie Wong "Have Head, Have Tail"

Amanda Palmer

Amanda MacKinnon Gaiman Palmer (born 30 April 1976), also known as Amanda Fucking Palmer, is the lead singer, keyboardist, and songwriter of the Brechtian punk cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls, the duo Evelyn Evelyn, as well as a solo performer and impresario. She was married to writer Neil Gaiman.

Quotes

 * I write a lot, but it's not all fantastic. There's plenty of terrible crap. We work on a few things at a time, let some things fall away, make changes. We certainly have enough for the next album, which could take at least another year to come out.
 * Interview in Only Angels Have Wings (April 2004)

 * Interviewer Barb H: Your sound is quite refreshing, did it come naturally? AP: As natural as the day you were born, my love.
 * Interview in Only Angels Have Wings (April 2004)

 * It makes me very sad when I find out that people who never hear our music think that we are really about image and not about substance. … I can understand why you might get that impression if you've never heard the band's music and see a photo of a guy and a girl dressed up in crazy costumes and think, "I don't need to pay attention to that — why do they need to wear those crazy clothes?" I think that's why we've constantly toured. Our live show is so intense and so substantive and emotional that it's sort of the price we have to pay for being so flamboyant — we have to prove ourselves as a rock band.
 * As quoted in "Getting Real With Amanda Palmer" at AfterEllen (18 July 2007)

 * I'm bisexual, but it's not the sort of thing I spent a lot of time thinking about … I've slept with girls; I've slept with guys, so I guess that's what they call it! I'm not anti trying to use language to simplify our lives.
 * As quoted in "Getting Real With Amanda Palmer" at AfterEllen (18 July 2007)

 * Rock needs theater, rock is theater. We just go through different eras of guilty admission about this. Having risen with The Dresden Dolls in the heyday of The Strokes and The White Stripes, everyone was looking at us as completely misfit theater dorks. But it’s really encouraging to see a more theater-dork wave of bands like The Scissor Sisters, Antony & The Johnsons, CocoRosie, Patrick Wolf and even Arcade Fire and Decembrists becoming popular. The dress-up freaks are coming back, and it’s wonderful to watch.
 * As quoted in "Amanda Palmer Freaks Out With Evelyn Evelyn" by Scott Thill in WIRED (29 March 2010)

 * I really like Neil a whole, whole, whole lot, and I really do not want to marry Kevin Smith, even a little. Do you remember the Trojan War, dude? I’m just saying. Can you imagine what a world war between a Neil Gaiman army and a Kevin Smith army would actually look like? Their fans are serious. I predict there would be lots of very high-fallutin’, toilet-based name-calling, confusing many. And possibly foam swords swinging at hockey sticks. Actually, that’s bullshit. There’s no way anybody would leave their Twitter feeds for long enough to pull out a foam sword or a hockey stick. Maybe it’ll be the world’s first full-on digital war and people will just head over to Second Life to duke it out. I hope Neil’s army wins.
 * On a humorous twitter courtship by Kevin Smith, as quoted in "Amanda Palmer Freaks Out With Evelyn Evelyn" by Scott Thill in WIRED (29 March 2010)

 * i am a herd of cats and a drunk shepherd with alzheimer’s all at once. i am the walrus.
 * "EL FUCKING NIÑO, in which i post no pictures of pirates" at AFP : Amanda Palmer's blog

Lyrics

 * Nothing is crueller than children who come from good homes.
 * "Night Recconaissance" Live (2006)

 * A turn, a screw, a pull, a twist, the drug that makes you prettiest.
 * "June is Busting Out All Over" Live (Date unknown)

 * I'm not gonna live my life on one side of an ampersand.
 * "Ampersand" Live (2006)

 * you're rich in love you're great bed you'll see the world you'll knock 'em dead and all the thick books that you've read will count for nothing in the end
 * "Straight" Live (2004)

I'm just so glad to hear laughter around me.'''
 * '''I still get laughed at but it doesn't bother me,
 * Do You Swear to Tell the Truth the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth So Help Your Black Ass (2010)

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 DarknessLord. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name DarknessLord~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.
