Having a phone bill with more pages than the phone book would be a worry. Probably means you have living teenagers in the house. It means either you need to stop spending so much time on the phone, or else have law enforcement do something about whoever's been hijacking your phone line! I thought of another quote... something Mahatma Gandhi said, when someone asked him what he thought of Western civilization. Gandhi's reply: "I think it would be a great idea". And here we thought he was nothing more than a little bald guy who helped India gain its independence... He's not just a great leader and proponent of peace whose visage is instantly recognizable to people all over the planet; he's also a witty insult comic! Now we can finally add his name to the history books.

Malcolm X
"Time is on the side of the oppressed today, it's against the oppressor. Truth is on the side of the oppressed today, it's against the oppressor. You don't need anything else."
"Without education, you're not going anywhere in this world."
"It doesn't mean that I advocate violence, but at the same time, I am not against using violence in self-defense. I don't call it violence when it's self-defense, I call it intelligence."
"Concerning nonviolence: It is criminal to teach a man not to defend himself, when he is the constant victim of brutal attacks."
"Don't be in a hurry to condemn because he doesn't do what you do or think as you think or as fast. There was a time when you didn't know what you know today. "

"The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be." Marcel Pagnol This is very true. I also like the other quotes you posted earlier - Ralph Waldo Emerson quotes always seem to strike a chord with me.
