#1 "I should have been a politician."

Indeed. but instead you and your followers chose the route of murder and terrorism to achieve your aims. You got the fate you deserve.

#2 One of my favorite quotes!

"There are two kinds of people in this world, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig [holes]. You dig."
-- Clint Eastwood, "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"

which is almost as favorite as this:

"Owing to the neglect of our defences and the mishandling of the German problem in the last five years, we seem to be very near the bleak choice between War and Shame. My feeling is that we shall choose Shame, and then have War thrown in a little later, on even more adverse terms than at present."
-- Winston Churchill in a letter to Lord Moyne, 1938

#3 I have to put in my favorite of the 20th century:
"There are two kinds of ships; submarines and targets." -- Some bubblehead
