DireWolfSpirit Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) NYC portrait painters conversation with Sitting Bull. Sitting Bull- "Your city is too full of people with too many things, too full of people with not enough things." Painter- "You dont like New York city?" Sitting Bull- "Your society judges people by the things you have. The Sioux judge people by the things you give away." The painter commisioned several wagons of foodstuffs and winters supply for the Chiefs tribe. His quote must've left an impression.

Jikm Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 "PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way. GANDALF: End? No...the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey-rain curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it. PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what? GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise. PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.

A wilding Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Just now, losers reject said: -- JRR Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings I think that technically, that was a quote from the Peter Jackson films, rather than by Tolkien himself.

Teng Ai Hui Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Most of my students don't like history / social studies, so I sometimes tell them, "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it." I saw that quote repeated on a tv show recently. Unfortunately, the character attributed it to Churchill instead of Santayana.
