"O problema de ter uma mente aberta é que as pessoas estão sempre a atirar coisas là para dentro..."
- Daisy Darko (real name: MM - most probably quoting -or rather misquoting- somebody else there... Very badly at that.)

It would be much better as: "O problema com uma mente aberta é que se pode colocar tudo o que se quizer là dentro - até mesmo besteira, asneira e outra merdesseira!" THERE! Attribute that one to ME - Luciano Pimentel! Luce Has Spoken!

"To chance being a fool instead of becoming a cynic."
- Charlie G. of Care2 in-fame (really paraphrasing or outright borrowing from someone else, of course)
(Fine, Charlie boy - be a fool! And I'll be a sarcastic wit, in the meantime! Cynicism OPTIONAL!)

"The great thing about television is that if something important happens anywhere in the world, day or night, you can always change the channel." - From "Taxi"
(I can see Danny DeVito spewing out that line... Certainly not the moronic imitator, Patrick Huard... The latter has a new show on TVA, unimaginatively -not to mention illegally- titled... TAXI. He's also known for putting two and two together -to make 3 1/2 stars out of 10 with- "Bon Cop, Bad Cop"... AND he's also scheduled to make his directorial debut with yet another insipid crappy "social commentary of a minimaliste-intimiste film made in Quebec" in other words "yet another film "sur le cul" - about the average Québécois' sexual obsessions, yeah" - and that one will be titled... get ready to laugh... "Les Trois Petits Cochons". Yeah - we know who's the Big Bad Wolf in this one... eh?)

"No man or woman of the humblest sort can really be strong, gentle and good, without the world being better for it, without somebody being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness. " - Phillips Brooks

"No man or woman of the humblest sort can really be strong, gentle and good, without the world being better for it, without somebody being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness. " - Alan Alda

(Hmm... Who to believe here, eh? Maybe... ME! Read on...)
"No man or woman of the dumbest kind can truly be expected to be weak-minded enough, gullible and good-mannered enough as well, to swallow up whatever those "great ones" in the world will spout out and claim as theirs in a vainglorious effort to be credited with having helped, comforted and been of any use at all to the afflicted existence at large. "
- Luciano Pimentel



Some guys NOT TO BE QUOTED NOW... OR EVER!

"People are fond of spouting out the old cliché about how Van Gogh never sold a painting in his lifetime. Somehow his example serves to justify to us, decades later, that there is somehow merit in utter failure./ Perhaps, but the man did commit suicide." - Hugh Macleod (Who?)
(So did, allegedly, Doutor Sousa Martins - and he's still, somehow, a symbol of The Light now! Ask his fans... LEARN something HUGE, Hugh!)

"There are no facts, only interpretations." - Friedrich Nietzsche
(Right - like, deny the fact that you're a very dead moron NOW, nitwit Nietzs! ;)
As I always said - JUST SAY NYET TO NIETZS!)

"He was always late on principle, his principle being that punctuality is the thief of time."
- Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)
(Better a thief than a fag! Thieving has not been described as "an abomination in the eyes of God" in the Good Book - merely as another sin...! While your wilde ways, Oscar, well surely they told you...)

And let's end on a true QUOTABLE NOTE - at least!

"Today's scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality." - Nikola Tesla
(You tell them, Nikola - great man of SCIENCE, you! Hmm - I say that, even though that's oxymoronic, IMHO...! ;)
