Brother Bear

Brother Bear is a 2003 American animated musical fantasy comedy-drama film from Walt Disney Pictures about an Inupiat boy who pursues a Alaskan brown bear in revenge for a battle that he provoked in which his oldest brother is killed. He tracks down the bear and kills it, but the Spirits, angered by this needless death, change the boy into a bear himself to gain perspective.
 * Directed by Aaron Blaise and Robert Walker. Written by Tab Murphy, Lorne Cameron, David Hoselton, Steve Bencich and Ron J. Friedman.

Nature Calls.

Dialogue

 * Kenai: Yeah, I'll probably get like a sabertooth tiger for bravery or strength or greatness. You know, something that fits me.
 * Denahi: How about a mammoth for your fat head? Just make sure you get that basket tied up.
 * Kenai: Don't worry. No stupid bear's gonna get anywhere near this fish.
 * Denahi: Just tie it up.
 * Kenai: [under his breath] "Just tie it up."
 * Man: She's back! Hey, everybody! Tanana's back!
 * Sitka: Come on!
 * Child: Come on, Kenai, let's go!
 * Kenai: Come on, come on.
 * Child: Tanana's got your rock! Come on!
 * [Kenai quickly ties up the basket and runs off, only for the basket to fall and break]

 * [After Kenai recieves his totem]
 * Denahi: There he is.
 * Kenai: [moans in annoyance] Ohh.
 * Denahi: Ha ha! Come here, loverboy.
 * Kenai: Uhh. Leave me alone.
 * Denahi: Aw, Kenai, wait.
 * Kenai: Uhh.
 * Denahi: I'm sorry.
 * Kenai: What?
 * Denahi: Your totem: I think it's really great.
 * Kenai: You do?
 * Denahi: Yeah. And I made you something.
 * Kenai: [smiling] Really?
 * Denahi: [throws flowers on Kenai's head] Now when you skip around loving everybody, you'll smell so sweet.
 * [Kenai pushes the flowers back to Denahi]
 * Sitka: Well, isn't this nice? Instead of fighting, you're giving each other flowers.
 * Denahi: Yeah, isn't it lovely? He's so in touch with his totem already.
 * Kenai: Uhh!
 * Sitka: Hey, dog breath, go take care of the fish.
 * Denahi: Sure. Kenai loves me, he loves me not. Kenai loves me, he loves me not. Kenai loves me, he loves me not. [Kenai picks up a rock and preps to throw it at Denahi]
 * Sitka: [grabs Kenai's hand before he throws the rock] Kenai.
 * Kenai: Someday I'm gonna just-- He's just such a--
 * Sitka: Hey, bonehead. Just because his totem is wisdom doesn't mean he's wise. I mean, look at him.
 * Denahi: Kenai loves me, he loves me not. Kenai loves me, he loves me not. [accidentally steps on a dog's tail and the dog yelps and barks] Hey! Whoa!
 * People: Hi, Denahi.
 * Denahi: Oh, hi. Heh-heh. [the dog growls and bites his butt, offscreen] Aah! [Kenai and Sitka cringe] Let go!
 * Kenai: Yeah. I guess the spirits messed up on both of our totems.
 * Sitka: You know, I felt the same way when Tanana gave me mine.
 * Kenai: Get out of here.
 * Sitka: No, really. I said, "The Eagle of Guidance? What does that mean?" [chuckles] But now that I'm older, I know it's about being a leader, and keeping an eye on you two.
 * Kenai: I just want to get my handprint on that wall.
 * Sitka: Just be patient, Kenai. When you live by your totem, you will.
 * Kenai: Really?
 * Sitka: Guarantee it. [he and Kenai high-five]
 * Kenai: But come on, the Bear of Love? I mean a bear doesn't love anyone they don't think, they don't feel, I mean they're-- [people chatter at the fish trail] They're thieves.
 * Denahi: You didn't tie it off, did you?
 * Kenai: Uh-- [chuckles nervously]
 * Denahi: You should've got the totem of pinheads!
 * Sitka: Knock it off. We'll just make another basket.
 * Denahi: We? Oh, no. No. It took me 2 weeks to make that basket. You get lover-boy to do it. [Kenai scowls] He's the one that's messing things up all the time. Typical Kenai.
 * Kenai: [holding a spear] All right. I'll go get your basket.
 * Sitka: Kenai, wait. Kenai!
 * Denahi: [Sitka looks at him angrily] [confused] What?

 * Kenai: [kicking tree branches out of anger; Kenai hears a growl, and sees a bear. He throws a rock near the bear, catching its attention. He throws another rock at the bear's head]
 * Sitka: [offscreen] Kenai! [the bear roars angrily] Kenai! Where'd he go?
 * Denahi: If we're lucky, far away. Huh.
 * [Kenai screams, as he dangles over the edge of a glacier]
 * Denahi: Kenai! ''[he and Sitka run to him]
 * Kenai: Sitka, no! You got to get out of here!
 * Sitka: What?
 * Kenai: The bear! Look behind you! ''[the bear roars viciously]
 * Sitka: [alarmed] Aah!
 * [While the bear roars, Denahi throws a rock at the bear]
 * Denahi: Hey, bear, come on! [the bear turns to him] Over here! Come on, bear! Come this way!
 * Kenai: Uhh. [Roaring; Sitka pulls Kenai up, and runs to hold off the bear. The ice fractures, and Denahi falls in.]''
 * Denahi: Aah!
 * Kenai: [running over] Denahi! Uhh! Hold on! Come on, pull!
 * Denahi: Uhh!
 * [The bear knocks Sitka over as he pants. The bear approaches Kenai and Denahi]
 * Kenai: [struggling to pull Denahi up] Unh!
 * [Sitka sees the ice begin to crack and stabs the ice with his spear, causing the ice to crack more, and the bear moans in alarm]
 * Kenai: [alarmed] Sitka. Sitka! [the ice breaks apart and the bear and Sitka fall in the water]
 * Denahi: Sitka?
 * [the bear comes out of the water, and walks back to the land. It roars and runs off. Kenai and Denahi jump into the water to search for Sitka]
 * Kenai: Come on! Sitka!
 * Denahi: Sitka!
 * Kenai: Sitka. Sitka!
 * Denahi: Sitka!
 * Kenai: Sitka, where are you?!
 * Denahi: [gasps in alarm] Kenai!
 * [Kenai finds the hood of Sitka's top floating in the water]
 * Kenai: [sadly] No. [desperately] Sitka! Sitka! Help us find you! Sitka! Sitka, where are you?! Sitka!

 * [After Sitka's funeral pyre, Kenai approaches Denahi, wielding two spears]
 * Kenai: Are you ready?
 * Denahi: For what?
 * Kenai: We're going after the bear. [Throws Denahi a spear, and he catches it]
 * Denahi: [slight pause] I know how you're feeling, but... but killing that bear is wrong. [he drops the spear]
 * Kenai: [dumbfounded] Wrong? Our brother is dead, and it's because of that monster.
 * Denahi: I don't blame the bear, Kenai.
 * [Kenai seems hurt at Denahi's words. Denahi turns away]
 * Kenai: [scowling] I see.
 * Denahi: [trying to grab the spear from Kenai] Killing that bear won't make you a man.
 * Kenai: [getting defensive] Oh, now you're trying to be wise!
 * Denahi: I'm trying to follow my totem, why can't you do the same?!
 * Kenai: [stammering] You really think love has anything to do with being a man?! A man wouldn't just sit here and do nothing.

 * [Denahi sees Kenai's clothes ripped, and he thinks Kenai died]
 * Denahi: [in thought] I don't blame the bear, Kenai.
 * [Denahi stands up and walks away.]
 * Kenai: [in thought] A man wouldn't just sit here and do nothing.

 * Tuke: What are they getting worked up about?
 * Rutt: Gee, I don't know. Maybe the goose pooped on 'em, eh?
 * [Both Moose laughs]
 * Tuke: [panicking] Oh, gee. I think they're looking over here. Let's beat it. This way. [runs to his left]
 * Rutt: [panicking] No, no, no, this way. [runs to his right]
 * [Then both banged and got each other's antlers stuck]
 * Tuke: Oh, thank you very much.
 * Rutt: J-Just stay still and--
 * Kenai: [runs toward them] Hey, you two!
 * [Both Moose gasps]
 * Tuke: Head down. Head down!
 * [Both get their heads down for cover under the tree log]
 * Rutt: [whispers] Oh, gee! I think they seen us! Now what?
 * Tuke: [whispers] Act like we're not here.
 * Rutt: Oh. Ah, we're not here!
 * Tuke: Shh! [whispers] What are you doing, eh?!
 * Rutt: [whispers] Will you said to--
 * Tuke: [whispers] Don't say anything.
 * Rutt: [still whispers] Okay!
 * Tuke: [still whispers] I said, "Don't say anything"!
 * Kenai: Um, excuse me.
 * [The startled Mooses fell back screaming]
 * Tuke: Please don't eat us!
 * Rutt: You wouldn't like us, eh. We're really gamey.
 * Tuke: Ya... eat hoof-for-brains over there.
 * Rutt: Oh nice, eh. Pine-cone breath!
 * Tuke: Crusty tail!
 * Rutt: Twig legs!
 * Tuke: Big nose! [Rutt gasps] ... sorry.
 * Rutt: You went too far that time.
 * Tuke: Okay, I'm sorry.
 * Kenai: Guys.
 * Tuke: Besides, yours is bigger than mine.
 * Kenai: [move the antlers off the side] I'm not eating anybody.
 * Tuke: [calmly] Oh, whew! [laughs] That's mighty decent of you, eh.
 * Rutt: Yeah. Hey, my name's Rutt. This my brother, Tuke.
 * Tuke: How's it going, bear?
 * Kenai: [scoffs] Don't call me that.
 * Tuke: Oh, sorry, [stammers] Mr. Bear?
 * Kenai: No! I mean, I'm not a bear. I hate bears.
 * Rutt: Well, gee, eh, you're one big beaver. [laughs]
 * Tuke: No kidding?
 * Kenai: [about the spirits] Do either of you know where the lights touch the earth?
 * Rutt: Yee...ahh... No. Uh, no. Sorry, bear, or beaver.
 * Kenai: I'm not a beaver. I'm a bear. No, I mean, I'm not a bear. I'm a man!
 * [Tuke spits out, laughs surprised]
 * Rutt: Excuse me?
 * Kenai: I was transformed into a bear, magically. I was lifted into the sky by my brother.
 * Tuke: Uh-huh. [turns to Rutt, fake cough] You're crazy!
 * Rutt: Gesundheit.
 * Tuke: [fake cough] No, a fruitcake!
 * Rutt: Are you, okay?
 * Tuke: [fake cough] No, that bear over there! He's crazy!
 * Kenai: [angrily] I am NOT crazy!
 * Tuke: Well, who ever said you were? We understand.
 * Kenai: You do?
 * Tuke: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well-- Well, you see, we're not moose, either.
 * Rutt: We're-- We're not?
 * Tuke: No. Heh. We're like, uh... We're like squirrels. Yeah.
 * Rutt: Oh. Oh, yeah! Beauty, eh? Well, yeah, well, he... he's actually the squirrel. I'm-- I'm more of a pure-bred wolverine. Look at these cuspids. Rrrr!
 * Tuke: Give him a little room.
 * Kenai: [groans] Why am I even talking to a couple of dumb moose?
 * Tuke: No, we're squirrels, eh?
 * Rutt: Wolverine.
 * Kenai: I'll find it myself.
 * Rutt: Oh, I wouldn't go that way.
 * Tuke: Why not, eh?
 * Rutt: Uh, well, there was a reason.
 * Tuke: Well you brought it up.
 * Rutt: I'm trying to, but you're talking--
 * [Kenai shouts is caught in a snare, grunting and the moose watch him bounce around with the rope of the tree]
 * Tuke: So, you think of it yet? [leaves]
 * Rutt: Well, uh, no, but it's driving me nuts, too, eh? [leaves]

 * Koda: [looking at his reflection through ice] Skinny! Fat! Skinny! Fat!
 * Kenai: Hey, I've got a mountain to get to. Come on, kid.
 * Koda: I told you before. My name's Koda. Say it with me. Ko-da!
 * Kenai: Are you sure your mom didn't ditch you, Ko-duh?
 * Koda: Hmph.

 * [Koda tries to tell Kenai a story]
 * Kenai: [interrupting] Oh it sounds great, you should save it!
 * Koda: You think so?
 * Kenai: Oh, yeah. For your friends.

 * Koda: Mom says the spirits make all the magical changes in the world, like how the leaves change color, or how the moon changes shape, or tadpoles change into frogs--
 * Kenai: Yeah, I get it. You know, for a change, maybe they could just leave things alone.
 * Koda: What do you mean?
 * Kenai: My brother's a spirit, and if it wasn't for him, I... I wouldn't be here.
 * Koda: You have a brother up there? What happened to him?
 * Kenai: He was killed by a b-- By a monster.
 * Koda: What's your brother's name?
 * Kenai: Sitka.
 * Koda: Thanks, Sitka. If it weren't for you, I would have never met Kenai. I always wanted a brother.

 * Koda: I'm sorry we're lost, OK? Even though it's pretty much your fault.
 * Kenai: My fault?! Ugh! That's it.
 * Koda: Just remember, if it weren't for me, you'd still be hanging upside down right now.
 * Kenai: Better than being stuck in the middle of nowhere with you and your blabbing mouth. [angrily mocking Koda] "I'm lost. I can't find my mommy. Will you take me to the salmon run?" [angrily yells at Koda] Why don't you just grow up?
 * Koda: Fine. I'll just go on my own, then.
 * Kenai: Fine. Go ahead.
 * Koda: Fine.
 * Kenai: Fine.
 * Koda: Fine.

 * Ram 1: It's go time! [locks horns with the other ram]
 * Ram 2: You wanna go?!
 * Ram 1: Yeah.
 * Ram 2: Well, bring it on!
 * Ram 1: Horns up!
 * Ram 2: [sees Kenai and Koda] Whoa, whoa, hold up.
 * Kenai: Excuse me!
 * Ram 2: What do you want?! [echoes] What was that? Who was that?
 * Ram 1: Uh, just a minute, bear. [to the sky] HEY, SHUT UP! [echoes] NO, YOU SHUT UP! [echoes]
 * Ram 2: [to the sky] No, you shut up! [echoes]
 * Ram 1: HEY, WILL YOU SHUT UP?! [echoes] JUST SHUT UP!!! [echoes]
 * Koda: Heh. I think their horns are screwed on too tight. [he and Kenai laugh]

 * Kenai: Koda, there's...something I ought to-- You know that story you told me last night?
 * Koda: Yeah.
 * Kenai: Well, I have a story to tell you.
 * Koda: Really? What's it about?
 * Kenai: Well, it's kind of about a man and kind of about a bear. But mostly, it's about a monster. A monster who did something very bad...
 * Phil Collins: [singing] Everywhere I turn, I hurt someone. But there's nothing I can say to change the things I've done. I'd do anything within my power, I'd give everything I've got. But the path I seek is hidden from me now.
 * Kenai: [on the verge of tears] Koda? I’ve done something very wrong.
 * Phil Collins: [singing] Brother bear, I’ve let you down.
 * Koda: [sounding scared] I don’t like this story.
 * Phil Collins: [singing] You trusted me, believed in me, and I let you down.
 * Kenai: [sadly and quietly] Your mother’s not coming.
 * [Koda looks down and up with tears in his eyes]
 * Koda: [crying] No... no!! [starts to run off in the snow]

 * Koda: Ahem. In accordance with all federal and state wildlife regulations, no fish were harmed during the making of this film.
 * Fish: [screams in fear while being chased by a bear] No! He's gonna eat me! [screams]
 * Koda: [chuckles] Cut. Cut.
 * Fish: Somebody help me!
 * Koda: Ooh! [bear belches]

Casey Stengel

Charles Dillon "Casey" Stengel (30 July 1890 – 29 September 1975) was an American baseball player and manager from the early 1910s into the 1960s. In the 1950s, sportswriters dubbed him with yet another nickname, "The Old Perfessor", for his sharp wit and his ability to talk at length on anything baseball-related. He is regarded as one of baseball's more colourful personalities.

Quotes

 * Nowadays, when a pitcher gets a ball close to the hitter, the hitter comes back to the bench and says: "You know, I think he's throwing at me." That shows you how times have changed. When I broke in, you knew damned well they were throwing at you.
 * As quoted in "Sidelights on Sports" by Al Abrams, in The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (August 17, 1942)

 * There comes a time at least once in every man's life, and I've had plenty of them.
 * As quoted by Kevin Roberts in the August 23, 1953 issue of Parade; reproduced in "Gab with Gatts" by Art Gatts, in The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal (September 13, 1953), p. 16

 * Maybe, but I don't have another life to live to wait around for it.
 * Speaking on August 31, 1956 at Griffith Stadium, in response to pitcher Whitey Ford's assurance that he could indeed retire Jim Lemon, who had homered off Ford in each of his previous three at-bats; as quoted in The Greatest Team of All Timeː As Selected by Baseball's Immortals, From Ty Cobb to Willie Mays (1994) by Nicholas Acocella and Donald Dewey, p. 113

 * I guess this means they fired me. I'll never make the mistake of being 70 years old again.
 * On being fired by the Yankees after the 1960 World Series; as quoted in Casey; the life and legend of Charles Dillon Stengel (1967) by Joseph Durso; reproduced in "'Casey': A Career in Stengelese" by Ed Rumill, in The Christian Science Monitor (April 19, 1967), p. 13

 * This makes a man think. You look up and down the bench and you say to yourself, "Can't anybody here play this game?"
 * As quoted in Can't Anybody here Play This Game? (1963) by Jimmy Breslin; reproduced in "Rocene's Sport Jabs" by Ray Rocene, in The Missoulian (April 21, 1963), p. 11

 * It's a good likeness of The Dutchman. It's perfect the way they have him holding a bat in his big hands. He was good with the bat but he was a terror with that glove, too. And my, how he could run the bases. Come to think of it, he was as good a ball player as I ever saw. Maybe the best. John McGraw always said Wagner was the greatest and I'm inclined to agree with him. He was certainly the best I ever played against. Wagner was a huge man with huge hands. He could cover ground and he could throw. Amazing thing about him was his arm. It was only as good as the runner. If you were an average runner, he'd just beat you with his throw. And if you were fast, he'd just beat you again.
 * As quoted in "The Scoreboardː Stengelː 'Wagner Best I Ever Saw'" by Les Biederman, in The Pittsburgh Press (July 7, 1963), Sec. 4, p. 3

 * I've been talking only of some of the things Wagner did in the field. But he was a terror with that bat. The only other right-handed batter I could compare him with was Rogers Hornsby. Wagner could hit line drives into right field all day long. And when you started to shade him toward right field, he'd flip that bat, fake the third baseman into a bunt and hit it past him. And how he could run, too, even with his bowlegs. Honus had as much baseball instinct as I ever saw in a player. It was an education to play against him and a delight to watch him.
 * As quoted in "The Scoreboardː Stengelː 'Wagner Best I Ever Saw'"

 * Now the secret to successful managing is to break down your club. The first 15 guys you don't have to bother with. They are always playing and don't need the manager. The next five play only occasionally, so you got to keep buttering them up. The last five you gotta watch all the time because they're plotting to get you fired.
 * Speaking with reporters in December 1964 at MLB's, as recalled by then- reporter Bob Sudyk, and quoted in "Casey at the Bar: A Writer's Recollection of Stengel Stingers and Suite Stories" by Sudyk in The Hartford Courant (March 14, 1993), p. 18

 * There ain't nothin' to it. You go into the fancy meeting room and you just sit there and never open your yap. As long as you don't say nuthin' they don't know whether you're smart or dumb. When the question of a loan comes up, if it's a friend of yours, you vote to give it to him and if he ain't a friend, you don't.
 * On his duties as "vice-president of a flourishing bank in California"; as quoted in "Try and Stop Me" by Bennett Cerf, in The Raleigh Register / Beckley Post-Herald (December 5, 1964), p. 19

 * The new park sure holds the heat. The heat took the press right out of my pants.
 * On Busch Memorial Stadium, site of the 1966 MLB All-Star Game; as quoted in "Frank Doesn't Miss NL Pitching" by Neal Russo, in The St. Louis Post-Dispatch (July 13, 1966), p. 4C

 * Oh yes, THAT Robason. Well, I seen Mr. Paige and I seen Rogan and I seen Mr. Josh Gibson, did you ever see that centerfield wall in Pittsburgh? Well, he hit one-out-of-three over it and I would have to say Mr. Robason shouldn't think he was the only man was brought in the big leagues was a wizard, why, he hit the lousiest popup I ever seen in a World Series [...] he, this wizard Mr. Robason hit the ball clear to the pitcher's mound and Mr. Billy Martin catches it and we beat Mr. Robason's team for the fourth time in five. And the time they beat us, he wasn't in the lineup, he took the day off in the seventh game, you could look it up, so it's possible a college education doesn't always help you if you can't hit a lefthanded changeup as far as the shortstop, but I'm not bragging, you understand, as I don't have a clear notion myself about atomics and physics.
 * Responding to severe criticism by Jackie Robinson, published the previous week; as quoted in "Robason's Popup" by Jim Murray, in The Los Angeles Times (November 4, 1969), p. C1

 * Being with a woman all night never hurt no professional baseball player. It's staying up all night looking for a woman that does him in.

Quotes about

 * We had a lot of fun with Casey all through the Series. There never was anything abusive about him. We rode him just to hear his clownish comebacks. I know I kidded him plenty. And when he won the the 1 to 0 game, he ran around the bases with his thumb to his nose and his hand pointed to the Yankee bench. I think it was meant for me in particular as he tried to show me he, too, knew how to hit home runs. Ruppert didn't like it and later said it was undignified. But we didn't mind Casey having his fun.
 * Babe Ruth, in The Babe Ruth Story (1948) by Ruth with Bob Considine, pp. 123-124
 * He was like a father to me, and I mean that. My dad died after I had been with the Yankees a year and I guess Casey felt it was up to him to bring me up right. He kept me when I wasn't ready for the big leagues. He had confidence in me. He taught me to think, to play hard from the first pitch to the last.
 * Mickey Mantle, as quoted in "Mickey Mantle, an interview in depth" by Joe Reichler, in The Boston Globe (March 21, 1965)
 * The role of the manager is overrated, anyhow. Look at Stengel. When he was with the Yankees, loaded with material, he was a winner. When he moved over to the Mets, he finished last. They voted Casey the greatest living manager. That's a lot of bull—a joke. The only thing a manager has to do is relate to the players. Who did Casey ever relate to? Nobody but himself.
 * Jackie Robinson, as quoted in "Jackie Robinson Calls Stengel Overrated Pilot: Attacks Managerial Color Line On Clinic Faculty Discrimination Alleged" by the Associated Press, in The Washington Post (October 25, 1969)

 * Comment. This appears to be the result of a common mistake — creating an article solely for a single quote, with the quote as its title. Ordinarily, I'd recommend moving it into another article, but I'm not sure where this one should go. Does it belong in Religion or related articles? Might it best be put into Sports? Should it go into a geographic article like Australia, as "Hawthorn" is a place in that country? Even if we figure this out, we should have a source. My initial attempts to Google one led to Melbourne's Herald Sun, but the best link for the article no longer works, and HS refers researchers to a registration-only site for article text. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 06:58, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Sinnathamby Rajaratnam

Sinnathamby Rajaratnam (25 February 1915 – 22 February 2006), widely known as S. Rajaratnam, was a Singaporean politician who served as the third Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore between 1980 and 1985. He was also one of the founders of the People's Action Party (PAP), which has governed the country continuously since independence.

Quotes

 * One united people, regardless of race, language or religion.
 * Rajaratnam penned the Singapore National Pledge in 1966.

 * This was a new generation but now that they are all grown up, probably fathers and grandfathers but at that time, this concept (of a nation) was not even part of the imagination of adults, let alone children. So the best way to create a nation is to start from the schools. Once this is embodied and thinking by pure repetition everyday, that becomes part of the psyche of the people. So let me tell you if you are a Singaporean - two and a half million - no place to run - no more. Whether you are a Singapore Chinese, Singapore Malay and Singapore Indian, you cannot run away. This is your last stand, last outpost. So how do you do it? If you think of yourself as Chinese, Malays, Indians and Sri Lankans, then Singapore will collapse. You must think of Singapore - this is my country. I fight and die for Singapore if necessary. (undated)

 * We believe in a democratic society by governments freely and periodically elected by the people... We believe, in the virtue of hard work and that those who work harder in society should be given greater rewards... We believe that the world does not owe us a living and that we have to earn our keep." Adapted from speech by S Rajaratnam, Minister for Foreign Affairs, at a dinner in honour of His Excellency Mr. Hans Dietrich Genscher, Minister for Foreign Affairs.
 * 20 April 1977.

 * If you think of yourself as Chinese, Malays, Indians and Sri Lankans, then Singapore will collapse. You must think of Singapore: 'This is my country.' I fight and die for Singapore if necessary.
 * A speech in 1984.

TEE 60TH BIRTHDAY OF PRIME MINISTER, MR LEE KUAN YEW HELD AT TEE MANDARINHOTELONFRIDAY, 16 SEPTEMBER 1983. P6:http://www.nas.gov.sg/archivesonline/data/pdfdoc/SR19830916s.pdf)
 * Singapore run only by PhDs would be my vision of a purgatory. Equally, a government run by roadsweepers can be no less a terrifying place to live in.
 * Rajaratnam (SPEECH BY MR.S RAJARATNAM, SECOND DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER (FOREIGN AFFAIRS), AT THE DINNER IN CELEBRATION OF

 * If this is an attempt by voters to blackmail the government, to compromise on important issues or principles, then we must show them we cannot be blackmailed. No government should succumb to blackmail.
 * 24 December 1984, in the aftermath of an election in which the Opposition got 2 seats

About Sinnathamby Rajaratnam

 * His strength was as a thinker and a writer, a man of honour, with great moral courage. He had a way with people, enormous charm, integrity and character. He was self-possessed, had a good strong voice, and won the confidence of those who dealt with him.
 * Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, on 25 February 2006, in his eulogy to Rajaratnam.

 * With his passing, Singaporeans have lost a patriot, a man of deep conviction and principle. His contribution was not in bricks and mortar, or concrete and glass, but in ideas, sentiments and spirit. Everyday when the pledge is recited in our schools, our children are reminded to live up to our aspirations as Raja expressed them.
 * Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, on 25 February 2006, in his eulogy to Rajaratnam.

 * His weapon was the typewriter, He loved putting up the drafts of the ideology, which was a group consensus.
 * Lee Kuan Yew

 * He had this enormous gift of being self-possessed - friendly, approachable, very personable and he got on with people. I thought he was the one who would represent us best abroad, and he did.
 * Lee Kuan Yew, in an interview with Channel NewsAsia in 2005.

 * I think that Mr Rajaratnam has left an imprint on the Foreign Service of Singapore that it is a foreign policy of ideas.
 * Professor Chan Heng Chee, Singapore Ambassador to the United States.

Luke Haines

Luke Michael Haines (born 7 October 1967) is an English musician, songwriter and author, who has recorded music under various names and with various bands, including The Auteurs, Baader Meinhof and Black Box Recorder.

Quotes

 * The Great British Public; a nation of Blue Peter presenters.
 * Liner notes to Christie Malry's Own Double Entry OST, 2001

 * All British artists 1988--? Just signing your name is not enough, you withered fucking idiots.
 * Liner notes to Christie Malry's Own Double Entry OST, 2001

 * The Auteurs have become Luke Haines. I ate their bodies, spat out the pips, and sucked up their souls.
 * terapija.net

 * The point is there's a boring homogenisation of popular culture, so really the problem is there's nothing wrong, the machine works too smoothly. I think the pop music machine is much more fun when it's broken. Things are always more fun when they're broken. No one was ever consulted about this. There was never a Senate committee to say we must produce pop music every day since 1953 or whatever. It's time to lay down the gauntlet.
 *

 * I saw the 'Popstars' programme and to me it looked more like 'Opportunity Knocks' than the kind of cutting-edge postmoderism that The Guardian would like to have us believe it was. I think what it's more about is the public and the music industry's bloodlust. It's just like someone itching to say 'Oh, confound it all, let's bring back hanging, that was good entertainment'.
 *

Talk:Courage

Bowie Quote
How is the David Bowie "Heroes" song lyric relevant? Just because it has the word heroes in it?

Source of a certain quote
I've posted a sentence that I've heard once - "The brave only dies once. The coward dies every day." I don't remember where I've heard it, I think it was in some book. If anyone knows what the source is, please let me know and write it in the article. Tamuz 19:46, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
 * A'right, I found it in another place in wikiquote :-). Apparently its "A coward dies a thousand times...", found it in English Proverbs and apparently its by Shakespeare. Tamuz 20:14, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Quote
the test of courage comes when we are in the minority and the test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority

removed references to other quote archive
Sites that are compendiums of quotes (much like Wikiquote) are not primary sources, and should not be used as references in Wikiquote (it would be rather circular to reference a quote on one quote compendium with a another compendium). This is discussed in Sourcing if you'd like to read more about it.

 * Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.
 * Winston Churchill

 * Courage isn't about being fearless. It's about overcoming your fears.
 * Anonymous

 * You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
 * Aristotle

 * I admit that there are things scarier, but I consider them inevitable and therefore illogical to be afraid of.
 * Ryan P. Bowen

 * And each man stand with his face in the light of his own drawn sword. Ready to do what a hero can.
 * Elizabeth Barrett Browning

 * All problems become smaller if you don't dodge them, but confront them. Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly, and its spines crumble.
 * William S. Halsey

 * Courage is grace under pressure.
 * Ernest Hemingway

 * Courage is facing our deepest fears, Heroism is facing them again and again.
 * Tim McInerey

 * It doesn't matter where you go in this world, there will always be corruption and inequality. It is not only human nature, but the way of nature its self. It is completely unavoidable. Happiness comes from having the courage to change the world to suit you, the wisdom to change your self to suit the world, and the awareness to know how much of each is necessary.
 * Nicholas Colin McLaughlin

 * I was wrong. Do not accept eternal inequality and corruption! It is not human nature, it is not the way of nature. I know this now, it is simple greed, which we, more powerful together than we are separately, can overcome. And that is the role of a government, that in a nation united and equal under law, all may prosper. When all are not prospering, then the law has been unbalanced. And in our modern society it has become apparent that economic inequality is a construct of law, e.g. private property. Institutionalized greed and inequality. We as a people have recognized the inherent power of democracy to free people, but we need to apply the principal of democracy to the rest of our lives! Democracy is not just good for government, but business and resources as well. Democratize the economy. The current legal structure of a corporation is modeled after monarchy, it's an inherently unequal system at the very start. Model your business like a democracy and see it prosper everyone, even the environment. Worker owned business; remove greed and inequality from law and instead institutionalize values of compassion, charity, and cooperation. And to accomplish all this, we must have the courage to not accept inequality!
 * Nicholas Colin McLaughlin

 * Courage is a poison, forever potent and always inflicting those who wish to carry it.
 * Adam Murphy One of the most commonly quoted forms.

 * Fortunately for themselves and the world, nearly all men are cowards and dare not act on what they believe. Nearly all our disasters come of a few fools having the 'courage of their convictions.'
 * Coventry Patmore

 * If I spent as much time doing the things I worry about getting done as I do worrying about doing them, I wouldn't have anything to worry about. ...
 * Beryl Pfizer

 * Courage easily finds its own eloquence.
 * Plautus

 * Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
 * Ambrose Redmoon - This James Neil Hollingworth/ "Ambrose Redmoon" quote seems to come from "No Peaceful Warriors!" published in the Fall, 1991 issue of "Gnosis: A Journal of the Western Inner Traditions"

 * Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you.

 * Brooke Foss Westcott

 * Grief has limits, whereas apprehension has none. For we grieve only for what we know has happened, but we fear all that possibly may happen.

 * One of my greatest fears, one of those few things that keeps me awake at night and troubles my dreams, is that, when the moment of truth comes, I will fail. This is surpassed only by the fear that when that moment arrives, I will not fail, but will lack the courage to try.
 * Jonah West

 * The more wit the less courage.
 * Thomas Fuller

 * Have the courage to live. Anyone can die.
 * Robert Cody

 * Courage = Love + Hope + Fear
 * Shomam

 * Bravery is being the only person who knows you're afraid.
 * Franklin P. Jones

 * You only really discover the strength of your spine when your back is against the wall.
 * James Geary

 * Courage is nothing but acting as if you dont fear anything.
 * C.P.Karthic Srinivas.

 * Failure is never quite so frightening as regret.
 * Sam Neill's Character in The Dish

Courage & Bravery
Any chance these two pages could be combined? Or at least have one page redirect to the other (in this case, I'd prefer to have Bravery redirect to Courage)? Thanks. Markjoseph125 (talk) 03:19, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Philip Cross concentrates on editing Wikiquote. People's words can give them great credit and suggest "the content of their character". Their words can, alternatively, suggest when they do not deserve any credit at all, much more than any outline of their life and career could ever do.
