bull Quotes

Quote:Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet.[Dave Barry]

Quote:I probably should never have been there anyway, and it served me right when the two alert police officers fired up their siren, pulled me over, and pointed out that my car's registration had expired. I had not realized this, and as you can imagine I felt like quite the renegade outlaw as one of the officers painstakingly wrote out my ticket, standing well to the side of the road so as to avoid getting hit by the steady stream of passing unlicensed and uninsured motorists driving their stolen cars with their left hands so that their right hands would be free to keep their pit bulls from spilling their cocaine all over their machine guns. Not that I am bitter.[Dave Barry]

Quote:I've been accused of vulgarity. I say that's bullshit.[Mel Brooks]

Quote:If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull.[W.C. Fields]

Quote:One of the great attractions of patriotism -- it fulfills our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to bully and cheat. Bully and cheat, what's more, with a feeling that we are profoundly virtuous.[Aldous Huxley]

Quote:Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.[Harvey Fierstein]

Quote:Suburbia is where the developer bulldozes out the trees, then names the streets after them. [Bill Vaughan]
