Quotation meme.

[saxikath]

From all over, a quotations meme. Go here, and keep hitting “refresh” until you’ve found a total of five quotations that are meaningful to you, or mean something about you, or you agree with them, or whatever criteria you choose, I guess. Then post those five. (Or, in my case, seven, because I couldn't decide.)

"Why do you have to be a nonconformist like everybody else?" -- James Thurber (1894-1961)

"My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular." -- Adlai E. Stevenson Jr. (1900-1965), Speech in Detroit, 7 Oct. 1952

"Confidence is the sexiest thing a woman can have. It's much sexier than any body part." -- Aimee Mullins, Oprah Magazine, May 2004

"The world is not yet exhausted; let me see something tomorrow which I never saw before." -- Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

"Broadly speaking, the short words are the best, and the old words best of all." -- Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

The Aimee Mullins quote gives me an alarming, butcherly impression of one body part being sexy, all by itself. Ick! Eek!
