•"Stop cheating!" the dealer told the card player.
"I'm not!" claimed the player.
"You must be," said the dealer. "That is not the hand that I dealt you."

A few from Churchill. What a brilliant, wise, hilarious and self-deprecating man.
So much of this is applicable in our times, too.
The length of this document defends it well against the risk of its being read.
Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

Mitch! Love the fuck outta this dude.
I was walking down the street with my friend and he said, "I hear music", as if there is any other way you can take it in. You're not special, that's how I receive it too. I tried to taste it but it did not work.

Me too, grandma. Me too!
I loved this film (Parenthood - even though I'm not a parent - but I am a daughter).
The quote, which is so much better seen than read, reminds me of Jeff in Single Video Theory - to paraphrase, "not what to feel, but just to feel".
In 1994, he(Johnny Ramone) and Linda moved to Los Angeles, where he spent the final decade of his life among the next generation of hard rockers, some of who, like Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam and Kirk Hammett from Metallica, became his best friends.-Linda Ramone

If only more people understood what Johnny understood... that you can have very differing political opinions and stick to them. It does not mean that people with differing political views are 'the enemy', 'hate America', 'want to destroy America' and you 'should not come to compromises with'. They are simply, Americans with a diferent political view point than yours. We are all still... Americans.
P.S. You can visit Johnny's grave site in Los Angeles and say, 'Hello'.

I like that, Cosmo. Kinda reminds me of this one, from Thirtysomething:
Marjorie Warren: You see, there are two kinds of boys in high school. There are the good-looking ones, the ones on every team, the ones everyone wants. They're the greatest dancers too. And then there are the others... the boys who look as if they'd always rather be somewhere else reading a book, who are shy and awkward. I think you'd call them 'nerds' now. Those are the boys to marry, Ellyn. Those are the boys who tell you secrets, who hold you when you cry in the middle of the night, who want to grow old with you.
Ellyn Warren: How do you know about this, Mom?
Marjorie Warren: Because... I married a great dancer.

It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.
Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence.
No man will ever carry out of the Presidency the reputation which carried him into it.
