A wanker fights inequality, and for peoples rights.

A wanker fights class prejudice, a yobbo just fights.

Yob or wanker, wanker or yob, pass me the brush to tar ya.

Make your choice then live your life, come on pal what are ya.

“when you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar; you’re only telling the world that you fear what he might say.”

I met a traveller from an antique land, 
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone 
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand, 
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown, 
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, 
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read 
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, 
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; 
And on the pedestal, these words appear: 
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; 
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! 
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay 
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare 
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

“No matter how improbable it may seem, the tenth woman has to start thinking with the assumption that the other nine are wrong.”

quote of the other day :

"MANY MANY people saw electrical flashes that made no thunder in the perfectly clear blue sky, and worse, some people even saw small blue sparks everywhere in the air around them."

"With some members having 20 to 30 years of growing experience, you only need 5 or 6 people like these and you have 100 to 150 or more years of experience to gain knowledge from"

It was the voice of someone who was waiting in the shadows
Who was looking at the moon and waiting for me to turn the corner
And enter a narrow street
And stand with him in the dull glaze of moonlight
Then he said to me
He whispered
That my plan was misconceived
That my special plan for this world was a terrible mistake
Because, he said, there is nothing to do and there is no where to go
There is nothing to be and there is no one to know
Your plan is a mistake, he repeated
This world is a mistake, I replied

Holy shit yes, Special Plan! If you're not familiar, and ever feel your will to live rising too high, try saving up a week or two of sleep deprivation then locking yourself in a dark room with Current 93...

 

 

...that should sort it right out.

 

"Imagine", he said, "all the flesh that is eaten. The teeth tearing into it, the tongue tasting its savour and the hunger for that taste. Now take away that flesh", he said, "take away the teeth and the tongue the taste and the hunger. Take away everything as it is. That was my plan, my own special plan for this world."

I listened to these words and yet I did not wonder that this creature whom I had thought sleeping or dead would ever approach his vision, even in his deepest dreams or his most lasting death. Because I had heard of such plans, such visions, and I knew they did not see far enough. That what was demanded in the way of a plan needed to go beyond tongue and teeth, and hunger and flesh, beyond the bones and the very dust of bones and the wind that would come to blow the dust away. And so I began to envision a darkness that was long before the dark of night, and the strangely shining light that owed nothing to the light of day.
