AH Quotes

Voltaire

I may disagree with what you say, and I will defend your right to say it, but as for defending it to the death, I don't know, it depends...


Patrick Henry

I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death...ah! I've been shot! Help...


Malcolm X

You know, I'm still in favor of the civil rights struggle and all, but it's really getting to be a downer...I'd like to do something else more fun for a change, maybe try for a role as chief security officer on that new Star Trek series...


Neil Armstrong

That's...one small step for a man...one giant leap for...oh, !@#$ the ladder broke!


Ronald Reagan

Go ahead! Make Clint Eastwood's day!


Clint Eastwood

Go ahead. Make my day sunny and bright, so much fun in every way, things all going ever so right, la la la...


Dan Quayle

She sells sea shells down by the sea shore to seasick sailors and shell shocked soldiers. I knew I could say it!


What would be the historical consequences of these? Any additional quotes?

"And yet such is the weight of our history and our responsibility before our European neighbours that we can not in good conscience aspire to, much less demand, German unification within the lifetime of those who have suffered untold evil in the name of this nation..."

Helmut Kohl, 1990


"We have invested thousands of millions in the greatest scientific gamble in the history of mankind. And we have won."

Clement Attlee, speaking before the NNFMRL 'Tibe Alloys' staff 1947


"Kill the lot! Allah knows his own."

Salah ed-Din after the walls of Jerusalem were breached


"It has been our contention from the beginning that Germany can prosper only when its affairs are regulated in harmony and balance between its suzerains and peoples. Therefore we proudly declare Prussia's accession to the German Monetary Union."

Rudolf Virchow, Prussian chancellor

You people of the North don't know what you are doing. This continent will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it will end. It is all folly, madness, a crime against civilization! You people speak so lightly of war; you don't know what you're talking about. War is a terrible thing!

General William T. Sherrman, Confederate Army of Northern Virginia
