"Arguing with an idiot is like wrestling a pig in the mud. Everyone gets dirty and the pig loves it."-Something that Gramps used to say. Where he got it I don't know.

"There are 3 kinds of people in the world. The sheep, the wolves, and those who protect the sheep from the wolves"
"Power does not corrupt. It is that those who are easily corruptable are attracted to power."
"The last act of Democracy is to elect a Dictator"
Proverbs 25:
15 Through patience a ruler can be persuaded,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
Matthew 5:
38"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' 39But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
Luke 6:
27"But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32"If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. 33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. 34And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. 35But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Best quote I've read recently came from the Star Wars EU. So...I made it my sig.
From Star Wars: NJO: Traitor:
"Everything I tell you is a lie. The truth is always bigger than the words we use to describe it." - Jacen Solo
and just for kicks:
"Seize the day. Because, tomorrow, you might be dead." - Buffy Anne Summers
