On or off the topic of bodybuilding I just want to read some new ones
Here are some of my favs:
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able to?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able, nor willing?
Then why call him God?
-Epicurus
Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.
Its from Conan the Barbarian but I believe it was first made famous by Ghengis Khan.

Leaders do not wait,
they shape their own frontiers,
the bigger the challenge the bigger the reward.

"Help others and give something back. I guarantee you will discover that while public service improves the lives and the world around you, its greatest reward is the enrichment and new meaning it will bring your own life."
"I saw a woman wearing a sweatshirt with Guess on it. I said, Thyroid problem?"
"Money doesn't make you happy. I now have $50 million but I was just as happy when I had $48 million."
"The best activities for your health are pumping and humping."
"What we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn't think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know."
“A beginner does eight repetitions of a certain exercise with his maximum weight on the barbell. As soon as it hurts, he thinks about stopping. I work beyond this point, which means I tell my mind that as soon as it starts aching it is growing. Growing is something unusual for the body when you are over eighteen. The body isn’t used to ten, eleven, or twelve reps with a maximum weight. Then I do ten or fifteen sets of this in a row. No human body was ever prepared for this and suddenly it is making itself grow to handle this new challenge, growing through this pain area. Experiencing this pain in my muscles and aching and going on is my challenge. The last three or four reps is what makes the muscles grow. This area of pain divides a champion from someone who is not a champion. That’s what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they’ll go through the pain no matter what happens. I have no fear of fainting. I do squats until I fall over and pass out. So what? It’s not going to kill me. I wake up five minutes later and I’m OK. A lot of other athletes are afraid of this. So they don’t pass out. They don’t go on.”
"Everybody pities the weak. Jealousy you have to earn."
“Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.”

Quote of the day
"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm,
she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If
you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile,
she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to
her.
So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit."

If you ask me to name the proudest distinction of Americans, I would choose--because it contains all the others--the fact that they were the people who created the phrase 'to make money.' No other language or nation had ever used these words before; men had always thought of wealth as a static quantity--to be seized, begged, inherited, shared, looted or obtained as a favor. Americans were the first to understand that wealth has to be created. The words 'to make money' hold the essence of human morality.
"Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction. When money ceases to be the tool by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of men. Blood, whips and guns--or dollars. Take your choice--there is no other--and your time is running out."

Are you legitimately an anti-Semite, Bam? Just so you know, I'm half-Jewish by birth (though I was raised Scottish). I don't find your comments or your avatar deeply offensive or anything, but I sure as hell don't find them all that funny either.

Jewish and Scottish? ...Holy
Anti-Semite? we could dispute that terminology but anyway.. Do I resent the monopoly high level Jews and Israel have on the World banks, the Major media, and most governments of the world..
Yes.
Am I annoyed that the American Government is almost entirely jewish or crypto-jewish except for the moron the people elect. (except in Obamas case, hes the first jewish president (on his mothers side)
Am I sick of turning on my tv and seeing that every tv show available is monopolized by Jewish actors and if they aren't Jewish, they are married to one.
Am I annoyed that all the writers, producers, etc etc etc.. are jewish
Yes
Am I annoyed by the fact that the Jews invented the easter bunny and santa claus to overshadow the meaning of Christmas and Easter and to get us to lie to our children so that we are blackmailed into buying a bunch of jew-wares from the jew shops on our credit cards and fall deeper into usury based slavery?
yes
Do I resent the fact that Jews think they are better than the rest of us gentiles.. Yes
Do I resent the fact that some of their most holy of holy books refer to us non- Jews as cattle?.. Yes
Do I resent the fact that Jews are racists and have an exclusive society but at the same time force the rest of us to be inclusive and accepting of others?
yes
Do I mind the fact that they have rewrote history and twisted it? yes
Do I resent the fact that I can't walk into a bookstore and hardly ever find a book who's author isn't jewish? hell yeah
Do I want to round them all up and gas them? no.. but I it would nice to see their monopolies smashed to bits when people realize that they have been manipulated, deceived and generally treated as livestock all these years.
Do I resent the fact that if I notice something related to the Jewish race and I mention it openly, or if I even sAY the Jew word, the Jews have it set up that OMFG he's an anti semite thereby squashing anyone who dare question their tactics and social structure.
yes.
Scottish are ok though.. but they are cheap .. lol

"If statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous dim puff of stardust lost in the blaze of the Milky way. properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of, but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his commercial importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk. His contributions to the world's list of great names in literature, science, art, music, finance, medicine, and abstruse learning are also away out of proportion to the weakness of his numbers. He has made a marvelous fight in this world, in all the ages; and had done it with his hands tied behind him. He could be vain of himself, and be excused for it.
The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greek and the Roman followed; and made a vast noise, and they are gone; other people have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now, or have vanished. The Jew saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert and aggressive mind. All things are mortal but the Jew; all other forces pass, but he remains. What is the secret of his immortality?"
- Mark Twain
"Some people like the Jews, and some do not. But no thoughtful man can deny the fact that they are, beyond any question, the most formidable and the most remarkable race which has appeared in the world."
- Winston Churchill
"Jesus was a Jew, yes, but only on his mother's side."
- Archie Bunker
"They (the Jews) work more effectively against us, than the enemy's armies. They are a hundred times more dangerous to our liberties and the great cause we are engaged in... It is much to be lamented that each state, long ago, has not hunted them down as pest to society and the greatest enemies we have to the happiness of America."
~George Washington
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I fully agree with General Washington, that we must protect this young nation from an insidious influence and impenetration. The menace, gentlemen, is the Jews.
In whatever country Jews have settled in any great number, they have lowered its moral tone; depreciated its commercial integrity; have segregated themselves and have not been assimilated; have sneered at and tried to undermine the Christian religion upon which that nation is founded, by objecting to its restrictions; have built up a state within the state; and when opposed have tried to strangle that country to death financially, as in the case of Spain and Portugal.
For over 1,700 years, the Jews have been bewailing their sad fate in that they have been exiled from their homeland, as they call Palestine. But gentlemen, did the world give it to them in fee simple, they would at once find some reason for not returning. Why? Because they are vampires, and vampires do not live on vampires. They cannot live only among themselves. They must subsist on Christians and other people not of their race.
If you do not exclude them from these United States, in their Constitution, in less than 200 years they will have swarmed here in such great numbers that they will dominate and devour the land and change our form of government, for which we Americans have shed our blood, given our lives our substance and jeopardized our liberty.
If you do not exclude them, in less than 200 years our descendants will be working in the fields to furnish them substance, while they will be in the counting houses rubbing their hands. I warn you, gentlemen, if you do not exclude Jews for all time, your children will curse you in your graves.
Jews, gentlemen, are Asiatics, let them be born where they will nor how many generations they are away from Asia, they will never be otherwise. Their ideas do not conform to an American's, and will not even thou they live among us ten generations. A leopard cannot change its spots. Jews are Asiatics, are a menace to this country if permitted entrance, and should be excluded by this Constitutional Convention. "
~Benjamin Franklin

“When a warrior learns to stop the internal dialogue, everything becomes possible; the most far-fetched schemes become attainable.”
-Carlos Castaneda
Ultimately, you must forget about technique. The further you progress, the fewer teachings there are. The Great Path is really NO PATH.
- Ueshiba Morihei
If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.
-Sun Tzu
