I adore Will Rogers, such wit. I'll throw in one of my own on the subject -

"Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." Mark Twain

And one that I originally thought was something clever that they included in a Doctor Who episode, but was actually written by a poet.

"I have loved the stars too fondly to be afraid of the night." Sarah Williams

"The strong don't need guns."- Henry Rollins

The US election is now over, and here are two quotes I find most appropriate:

"When a Republican runs against a Republican, the winner will be the Republican." - Harry S Truman
"Mankind must put an end to war, or war will end mankind." - John F. Kennedy
