From a BBC newsfeed I happened upon this week, and paraphrased only out of lack of eidetic memory.

"The Bank of International Settlements has said that the banks have done their jobs with regards to the econonomy, and it now up to Govenrments to do theirs"

General Keith Alexander, Director of the National Security Agency, on mass surveillance and public opinion:

"It's like when you were younger — well, this is for boys. You know, when you're younger, you say, 'I don't want to take a bath.' You say, 'No, I'd never take a bath. Why would we want to take a bath?' Well, you've got to take a bath, cleanliness, (et cetera). I said, 'But isn't there a better way?' Well we don't, so we had to take baths, right, or showers. What about here, what's a better way to stop terrorists?"

"I don't know what's wrong with your wife, Whether she's got some psychological problem, whether she was molested as a child, you can go into all that stuff. And you really need a professional to deal with her, but that is a problem. She really wants intimacy 'cause she's flirting with you, she wants to, to.. to be attractive and to have you taken advantage uh, er taken attention er to her, pay attention to her, but at the same time she doesn't want to come together and consummate the marriage." - Pat Robertson

McNamara on strategy in Vietnam:

"What I thought was—and I was wrong—that a very high rate of casualties would lead them to be interested in trying to find a less costly way of achieving their objectives; i.e., negotiations."

During a 1991 Esquire magazine interview, Trump said, “You know, it doesn’t really matter what [the media] write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.”

Trump also renewed his praise of waterboarding, which was banned by the Bush administration in 2006 as both potentially illegal and ineffective. “What do you think about waterboarding?” Trump asked the crowd. They cheered as he gave his answer: “I like it a lot. I don’t think it’s tough enough.”

I was going to say the same about Maher -- is there anyone more deaf to the contradictions in his own language -- but figured I needed an additional contemptible quote from some insufferable asshole to post here, under the rules. Luckily, the Internet, she always provides:

MS. CLINTON: Well, you up the pain
that they have to endure by not in any way
occupying or invading them but by bombing their
facilities. I mean, that is the option. It is not
as, we like to say these days, boots on the ground.
MR. BLANKFEIN: Has it ever worked in
the history of a war? Did it work in London during
the blitz or --
MS. CLINTON: No. It didn't work to
break the spirit of the people of London, but
London was a democracy. London was a free country.
London was united in their opposition to Nazi
Germany and was willing to bear what was a terrible
price for so long with the blitz and the bombings.
Everybody says that Iran, you know, has
united --
MR. BLANKFEIN: Many -- they held out
for an awful --
MS. CLINTON: They wanted -- yeah. But
I mean, people will fight for themselves. They
will fight for themselves, but this is fighting for
a program. I mean, the calculation is exactly as
you described it. It's a very hard one, which is
why when people just pontificate that, you know, we
have no choice. We have to bomb the facilities.


This is on p. 16f. of the Blankfein-Clinton transcripts document attached to one of the e-mails released by Wikileaks, and downloaded from the NPR page below.

We meet at the borders of our being, we dream something of each others reality. - Harvey of R.I.

I am by virtue of its might divine,
The highest Wisdom and the first Love.

A classic from one of the most prominent pseudoleftists & personal-brand builders, Laurie Penny™:

That look in Obama's eyes? 'Fuck you, rich boy, I'm smart as hell and this is what I'm best at?' That. Is UNSPEAKABLY sexy. #denverdebate
