JollySipper Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 New Game! I like quotes, as do many of you, based on your signatures. Let's put some out there and see if anyone can guess who said them.......... I'll start! "Beauty should be edible, or not at all."

Ace-Garageguy Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Here are some good ones. Who said what?“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” “The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody has decided not to see.” “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” “No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.”
