Sean and Harrison. . .

What about, "From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more, forever."

Chief Joseph - Thunder Traveling to the Loftier Mountain Heights in 1877 ...

The full speech is ... "Tell General Howard I know his heart. What he told me before, I have it in my heart. I am tired of fighting. Our Chiefs are killed; Looking Glass is dead, Ta Hool Hool Shute is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say yes or no. He who led on the young men is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets; the little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are - perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my Chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever."

Did you google it?



It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.   -?-

Of course I googled it.  I'm a person, not a fecking encyclopaedia!  Very Happy

I hated Jane bloody Austen. Pride and Prejudice was a chickbook ... and I was a kid conned into reading it by it being called a "Classic".

And remember .... Quoting one is plagiarism. Quoting many is research.  Very Happy

Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.

I cannot think well of a man who sports with any woman's feelings; and there may often be a great deal more suffered than a stander-by can judge of.

Jane, again! Just for you BA! Another chick book, Mansfielsd Park

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
