"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

And Haghill.  God, the faces at the Forge could curdle milk.  Pretty much every female I've ever seen there, has a face that looks like it's been set on fire and put out wi' a shovel.

I've got a list...

Face like a battered fart
Face like a hauf chewed caramel
Face like a bulldog chewin' a wasp
Face like a burst couch
Head like an orange on a toothpick
Face like a pound of mince
Face like a camel eating sherbet
Face that would turn a funeral up a side street
Face like a cow's arse
If pigs could fly, she'd be the squadron leader
A face you'd put on the mantlepiece to scare the children away from the fire
