Nice one, isn't it AI?

Murphy's Laws of Combat
</font>

• Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder. </font>
• If your attack is going well, then it's an ambush. </font>
• Try to look uninportant because the bad guys may be low on ammo. </font>
• The enemy diversion you are ignoring, is the main attack. </font>
• The easy way is always mined. </font>
• Friendly fire - isn't. </font>
• If the enemy is in range - SO ARE YOU. </font>
• Things that must be together to work, usually aren't shipped together. </font>
• Tracers work both ways. </font>
• The only thing more accurate than incoming fire is incoming friendly fire. </font>
• Make it tough for the enemy to get in, and you can't get out. </font>
• Professional soldiers are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs. </font>
• Murphy was a grunt.</font>

I just had to share some Calvin and Hobbes quotes...

Calvin:
"That's one of the remarkable things about life. It's never so bad that it can't get worse."

"So the secret to good self esteem is to lower your expectations to the point where they're already met?"

"You know, Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocketship underpants don't help."

Hobbes:
"The best presents don't come in boxes."

"Van Gogh would've sold more than one painting if he put tigers in them."

"If you couldn't find any weirdness, maybe we'll just have to make some!"

To dream is to love, to feel true happiness, to see all your hopes and your dreams played out... it's exhilarating. To wake up... it's heartbreaking.

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?

In the absence of love, there is nothing worth fighting for.

[Heroine of the Dragon]

We're all a little weird. And life's a little weird. And when we find someone who's weirdness is compatible to ours, we join up with them and fall into a mutually satisfying weirdness and call it love, true love.

Dunno where it comes from...

The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly.
--G.K. Chesterton

Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

"Hoom, hm! Ah now," said Treebeard, looking dark-eyed at him. "A dwarf and an axe-bearer! Hoom! I have good will to Elves, but you ask much. This is a strange friendship!"- JRR Tolkien.

I like that one about weirdness, as well.. I'll post something here eventually.. I'm not often fond of quoting people.. I prefer my own words.

I just like reading... and have bits of paper everywhere with scribbles that I've copied quotes from different books... gets messy! LOL

"I duddits!" - Douglas from Dreamcatcher.

"It may be a touch unlady-like, but I'm gonna crush you, I am."

From Baldur's Gate

I've got a quote sheet from myself around here somewhere... I used to write short stories that didn't make any sense if you were anywhere near sane.

A poet is an unhappy being whose heart is torn by secret sufferings, but whose lips are so strangely formed that when the sighs and the cries escape them, they sound like beautiful music and then people crowd about the poet and say to him: "Sing for us soon again;" that is as much as to say, "May new sufferings torment your soul."
