Air Force Adopt a marine program: If you see a marine, tell him you bring him his mommy notes (you may have to write mommy notes). You fly the planes - tell him you bring him the alcohol and food. Tell him you bring postcards and PORNOS from your town. Tell him you bring drugs and cigarettes. Get close to that marine and keep him by your side. Give him pornos, notes, etc When it all goes to shit stand behind your marine. He will kill people, and generally fuck shit up to save your ass.
 
"I'll just do these narcotics once in a while"

By me and I suspect many others on here.
 
I think psychedelics play a major part in what we do, but having said that, I feel that if somebody's going to experiment with those things they really need to educate themselves about them. People just taking the chemicals and diving in without having any kind of preparation about what they're about to experience tend to have no frame of reference, so they're missing everything flying by and all these new perspectives. It's just a waste. They reach a little bit of spiritual enlightenment, but they end up going, 'Well, now I need that drug to get back there again.' The trick is to use the drugs once to get there, and maybe spend the next ten years trying to get back there without the drug.

- Maynard James Keenan

Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

- Aristotle, "Nichomachean Ethics"

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

- Buddha
 
What's the point of your existence?
To feel. 'Cause you've never done it, you can never know it. But it's as vital as breath. And without it, without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock... ticking.

Bullets change governments far surer then votes

Mankind united with infinitely greater purpose in pursuit of war than he ever did in pursuit of peace.

Tell me how he died.
I will tell you how he lived.

Hm... I gather someone enjoys Equilibrium quite a bit. So do I actually. Heres a few more movie quotes I'm very fond of:

"I'd only told them the truth. Was that so selfish? Our integrity sells for so little, but it is all we really have. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free"

"The building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by their people. By itself, a symbol is meaningless, but with enough people, blowing up a building can change the world."
 
You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give.
-Winston Churchill


Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
-Buddha

I just saw these two and thought I'd add them. The Buddha one is very true and very wise, even if you're not into religion, still a good quote.

*edit - had to add this one I just found

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.
-Carl Jung
