``You know what the fellow said: In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love--they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.'' (Greene says this speech was written by Welles.)

John 8:39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
John 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not.

See the Spainard seek companion
See the Spainard have a ball
See the Spainard sell his friends out
He's on quality street, he's on quality street
As pretenders pretend, to their patronage lend
But it's the ones we don't see, that always fascinate me
As the masters rot on walls and the angels eat their grapes
I watched Picasso, Pablo Picasso, visit the Planet of the Apes

"You cannot be president of the United States if you don't have faith. Remember Lincoln, going to his knees in times of trial and the Civil War and all that stuff. You can't be. And we are blessed. So don't feel sorry for--don't cry for me, Argentina." --to employees of the Liberty Mutual Insurance Company in Dover, New Hampshire, while campaigning before the New Hampshire Primary, stressing the importance of prayer. 1/15/92
`I talks English, doesn't I?' the Frog went on.?`Or are you deaf? What did it ask you?'
`So you did, you know,' the Red Queen said to Alice.?`Always speak the truth--think before you speak--and write it down afterwards.'
`I'm sure I didn't mean--' Alice was beginning, but the Red Queen interrupted her impatiently.
?`That's just what I complain of!?You SHOULD have meant!?What do you suppose is the use of child without any meaning??Even a joke should have some meaning--and a child's more important than a joke, I hope.?You couldn't deny that, even if you tried with both hands.'
`I'll whisper it,' said the Messenger, putting his hands to his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, and stooping so as to get close to the King's ear.?Alice was sorry for this, as she wanted to hear the news too.?However, instead of whispering, he simply shouted at the top of his voice `They're at it again!'
`Do you call THAT a whisper?' cried the poor King, jumping up and shaking himself.?`If you do such a thing again, I'll have you buttered!?It went through and through my head like an earthquake!'
`It would have to be a very tiny earthquake!' thought Alice. `Who are at it again?' she ventured to ask.
`Why the Lion and the Unicorn, of course,' said the King.
`Fighting for the crown?'
`Yes, to be sure,' said the King:?`and the best of the joke is, that it's MY crown all the while!?Let's run and see them.' And they trotted off, Alice repeating to herself, as she ran, the words of the old song:--
?
`The Lion and the Unicorn were fighting for the crown:
The Lion beat the Unicorn all round the town.
Some gave them white bread, some gave them brown;
Some gave them plum-cake and drummed them out of town.'
`Does--the one--that wins--get the crown?' she asked, as well as she could, for the run was putting her quite out of breath.
`Dear me, no!' said the King.?`What an idea!'
`Would you--be good enough,' Alice panted out, after running a little further, `to stop a minute--just to get--one's breath again?'

Grasping at straws in event that one predicts
Stupid stupidity, it's useless formality....."

BON JOUR ALL'O YA OUT THERE
Just a quick note to let those of you who offered suBmissions and those that wanted subscriptions; We shall be taking a short recess amidst all this excitement and return shortly. Wawe wave (winshield wiper style).
There was once a man who did one thing right, and one thing wrong, in that order.
The first thing was to tell a fool that he was a fool.
The second thing was not to have made sure that he was not standing beside a deep well

Mar 6:11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
A Sufi once knew, through prescience, that a city would shortly be attacked by an enemy. He told his neighbour, who realized that he was a veracious but simple man, and who advised him: "I am sure that you are right, and you should go and tell the nonarch. But, if you want to be believed, please say that you divined it, not by wisdom, but by astrology. Then he will act, and the town may be saved."
The Sufi did so, and the townspeople were delivered through the correct precautions being taken.
