Guest Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 "In accordance with the principles of double-think it does not matter if the war is not real. For when it is, victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won, but it is meant to be continuous. The essential fact of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labour. The hierarchy of society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects, and its object is not victory, but to keep the very structure of society intact." George Orwell Love this one, cheers Bust...he was a rather clever chap...and seemed to have a Nostradamus like ability to perceive of the future of humanity. How we need people like him now.

Guest lazyphil Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 True Romance!..... Coccotti: I haven't killed anybody since 1984. Goddamn his soul to burn for eternity in fucking hell for making me get my hands dirty. Go over to this comedian's son's apartment, come back with something that tells me where that asshole went, so I can wipe this egg off my face and finish this fucked-up family for good. and.... Clarence Worley: I can't tell you... that was one of the best times I ever had. It was. But, you know, I knew something must be rotten in Denmark. There was no way you could like me that much. Man, I can't tell you how relieved I was when you took off your dress, you... you didn't have a dick. and.... Boris: Call me an ambulance. Somebody, call me an ambulance. Nicky Dimes: Shut up. Boris: Fuck you, I'm bleeding. Nicky Dimes: I'll call you a hearse... this is for Cody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
