random qoutes from a madman pt1

Jun 13, 2010 by Claud
imagei just finished a book called 'teach yourself to be a madman " . the book is about a young russian solider who hates the service so much that he starts acting crazy , in hopes of getting kicked out (or IS he acting?). somehow, i find they can also relate to the game.

anyway , here are some of the cooler quotes within the book, comment and let me know which one/one's you like best :

"patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels." ~ G.K. Chesterton

"all women look pretty from a distance , in the dusk under a paper umbrella." ~ Japanese Proverb

"can anything be more ridiculous than that a man should have the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of the water, and because his ruler has a quarrel with mine?" ~ Pascal

"to live we need only a short life; to act we need a long one." ~ Joubert

"life is a tragedy for those who feel, and a comedy for those who think." ~ La Bruyere

"the last thing one knows ... is what to put first." ~ Pascal

"a man must swallow a toad every morning if he wishes to be sure of finding nothing more disgusting before the day is over." ~ Chamfort

"passion often turns the cleverest man into an idiot and the greatest blockhead into someone clever." ~ Francois, Duke de La Rochefoucauld

"fools are more dangerous than foes." ~ Russian Proverb

"the first days of a tyrant's death are the happiest days for the nation" ~ Roman Historian

NATIONAL MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY

DETOUR: "Aztec or Maya." At the Museum, two of the biggest exhibits are based on the Aztec and Maya cultures, and this Detour will be as well. In "Aztec", you will have to answer 3 specific questions about vegetables and agriculture in general. In "Maya", you will have to answer 3 specific questions based solely on math. Mail me your Detour Choice and the 3 correct answers to either quiz, then you will be sent your next clue.

"AZTEC:"
        1. These vegetables are sweeter than their counterpart, but aren't as common in Ireland either.
        2. These vegetables are a similar color to fire, yet rabbits seem to love them.
        3. These vegetables are like a mini Evergreen Tree in the middle of winter.

"MAYA:"
        1. You have 3 pies, but Friend A has 5 times more pies than you. Friend B has 4 less pies than Friend C. How many pies do you have?
        2. Take the current year, subtract 20, and then divide in half. What is the outcome?
        3. There are 16 teams in the division, but after every team has played, 10 teams are eliminated. How many teams are left?
