Now before I get repremanded I brought this up because the first time we attacked IRAQ. Gen. Schwartzkoff qoted him when he realized that our air campaign was the decisive factor in winning the war. Control the skies and your ground forces can advance quickly while pulverizing the enemy.

How 'bout them Cowboys?!- Jimmy Johnson

Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American. Being born here in America doesn't make you an American.- Malcolm X

I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being, neither white, black, brown nor red. When you are dealing with humanity as one family, there's no question of integration or intermarriage. It's just one human being marrying another human being, or one human being living around and with another human being.- Malcolm X

Here's another one of my Churchill favorites:

"If this long island story is to end at last, let it end only when each one of us lies choking in his own blood upon the ground."

That depends on what the definition of "is" is. -Bill Clinton

Here's one from the late John Ritter..."I once had a heated argument with Don Knotts. He looked me dead in the eye and said that I wasn't fit to shine Andy Griffith's shoes. I stayed up all night thinking about that."
