There are a lot of lies going around.... and half of them are true.
                -- Winston Churchill

There are bad times just around the corner,
There are dark clouds hurtling through the sky
And it's no good whining
About a silver lining
For we know from experience that they won't roll by...
                -- Noel Coward

There are few people more often in the wrong
than those who cannot endure to be thought so.

There are few virtues that the Poles do not possess --
and there are few mistakes they have ever avoided.
                -- W. Churchill, Parliament, August, 1945

There are four kinds of homicide: felonious,
excusable, justifiable, and praiseworthy...
                -- Ambrose Bierce

There are four stages to a marriage.  First there's the affair, then there's

There are in this country two very large monopolies.  The larger of the
two has the following record:  The Vietnam War, Watergate, double-digit
inflation, fuel and energy shortages, bankrupt airlines, and the 8-cent
postcard.  The second is responsible for such things as the transistor,
the solar cell, lasers, synthetic crystals, high fidelity stereo recording,
sound motion pictures, radio astronomy, negative feedback, magnetic tape,
magnetic "bubbles", electronic switching systems, microwave radio and TV
relay systems, information theory, the first electrical digital computer,
and the first communications satellite.  Guess which one is going to tell
the other how to run the telephone business?  I can hardly wait for the
results.

There are many intelligent species in
the universe, and they all own cats.

There are many of us in this old world of ours who hold that things break
about even for all of us.  I have observed, for example, that we all get
about the same amount of ice.  The rich get it in the summer and the poor
get it in the winter.
                -- Bat Masterson

There are many people today who literally do not have a close personal
friend.  They may know something that we don't.  They are probably
avoiding a great deal of pain.
