"It was a cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen..." Opening phrase of George Orwell's 1984.

Of course none of this matters, eMa's quote will appear every other page shortly...

By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

But now, well, I guess recent events have made people forget who said the quote, instead focusing on the fact that it was said by someone who isn't alive anymore, and therefore must be an infallable gem of wisdom to be placed on the highest pedistal of truth.
All probably true, still a good quote.

Anyway, I have not noticed this quote being more popular, it has been a favorite of mine for a long time. Just now it seems so fitting.

Thats a good one too.

When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat. The two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.
