I was searching for quotes for a paper I am writing on free speech and I found this quote by Mario Savio during the free speech movement of 1964 and it's unbelievable.
"There comes a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part, you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, the people who own it, that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all."

How about a different verison of "Stuff Happens!"
(An the word "Stuff" is not the common word for this quote).
Instead how about the quote: "Pee Happens!"
This one is for all the Moms (and Dads) that have been in a department store line, waiting to be checked out for 45 minutes,
just to get the sale of the day on "Black Friday"!!!!
For those of you who do not know what "Black Friday" is it
is the day after Thanksgiving. I just learned that term this year,
and I have been shopping on this special sale day for years!

Good quote!
Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
