Hello! I'm not sure why you're looking at my profile but hopefully it's a good reason. I'm not sure how many people read this but for a little social experiment if you do then message me. I probably won't post the results but I love history so I'll guarantee I'll respond with one fact you don't know. If you already know it then I'll keep throwing information at you until you learn something (I also wanna be a history teacher one day so bombarding people with information might be an applicable skill though I doubt I can put this on my resume). Because I like quotes here are some of my favorite ones which sum up at least part of my view on life. “Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you’re a good person is like expecting a bull not to attack you because you’re a vegetarian.” - Dennis Wholey “Our Country won’t go on forever, if we stay soft as we are now. There won’t be any AMERICA because some foreign soldiery will invade us and take our women and breed a hardier race!” - Lt. Gen. Lewis B. “Chesty” Puller, USMC "I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all." - Gen. James "Mad Dog" Mattis, USMC "Oh, you mean my pilot's license? That's out back in the Cessna. Or perhaps you're referring to my license to kill. Revoked. Trouble at the Kazakhstan border. I could give you the details but then I'd have to kill you, which I can't do because my license to kill has been revoked." - Shawn Spencer, Psych "Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.” - Ronald Reagan "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill "I hate all politics. I don't like either political party. One should not belong to them - one should be an individual, standing in the middle. Anyone that belongs to a party stops thinking." - Ray Bradbury "But...it was so artistically done." - Grand Admiral Thrawn's last words commending the ability of his assassin as he was assassinated "A man's got to know his limitations." - Harry Callahan, Dirty Harry "I am a very rich man, I have such a luxury of choices." - Mr. Wordsworth, "The Obsolete Man" “The universe contains any amount of horrible ways to be woken up, such as the noise of the mob breaking down the front door, the scream of fire engines, or the realization that today is the Monday which on Friday night was a comfortably long way off." - Terry Pratchett "A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right." - Thomas Paine “When the taste for physical gratifications among them has grown more rapidly than their education, the time will come when men are carried away and lose all self-restraint. It is not necessary to do violence to such a people in order to strip them of the rights they enjoy; they themselves willingly loosen their hold, they neglect their chief business which is to remain their own masters.” - Alexis de Tocqueville "I owe no man anything, nor he me, because of the blood that flows in our veins.” - Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia
