Well, Doctor, what have we got—a Republic or a Monarchy?”

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”

The response is attributed to BENJAMIN FRANKLIN—at the close of the Constitutional Convention of 1787, when queried as he left Independence Hall on the final day of deliberation

“Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.”

“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

“If, after I depart this vale, you ever remember me and have thought to please my ghost, forgive some sinner and wink your eye at some homely girl.”

H.L. Mencken

Government is like a baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.

Thanks for the attribution.

You know, there are some of us who believe that “what we’ve done in eternity, echos in our life.”

Slightly different take on Maximus’ observation.

You have to slow down and think about it for a moment. It'll come to you.

Real warriors give great lines:
Vice Admiral Halsey was at sea in his flagship, USS Enterprise, during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Upon learning of the Japanese attack, he was rumored to have remarked, "Before we're through with 'em, the Japanese language will only be spoken in hell."

Two great actual lines from the Spartans at Battle of Thermopylae:
After being to told to lay down their arms: Molon Labe, "Come and take them"
After being told that the Persian arrows will block out the sun: "So much the better...then we shall fight our battle in the shade."

Admiral Beatty upon seeing British battlecruisers sunk one after another at Jutland, "There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today." Ironic lines: Commander of Wake Island after repulsing the first Japanese invasion: "Send us more Japs!"

General John Sedgwick, seconds before being struck down: "I'm ashamed of you, dodging that way. They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance."
