Deep Thoughts -- not just Jack Handy

[rootabaga]

Some of you will remember the seasons of SNL that included the "Deep Thoughts -- by Jack Handy" and that's kind of the idea behind this thread.

If you have a pithy (or not so pithy) saying you like, whether original or not, include it in the thread. If you know the originator of the quote, please so note that as well.

I'll start with an original:

Anymore it's getting to the point that I can lose my faith in the future of humanity by simply going for a drive...

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can - Roger Waters (Echo's)

"I may not agree with what you say, but will die for your right to say it."

Often wrongly attributed to Voltaire, this gets you defending the rights of some pretty nasty people and their posts if your a mod. However if said "nasty people" are careful they can say more or less what they want.

Remember me as you pass by,
As you are now, so once was I,
As I am now, so you must be,
Prepare for death and follow me.

I like that, it is slightly unnerving. I wonder if he worked for the insurance industry?

That's more than a little bit scary.

Give me a microphone and a cameraman and I could make those same kids look like Einstein, with some judicious editing. Of course no one would find that interesting or funny.




















Oh yeah ... get off my lawn.
