You gotta love Kurt Vonnegut: "I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center." Now that's what I'm talking about...
Here's another one: "True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country." Or worse, the frat boys in your college!
Brainyquote is the best quote site I know of...it will never get old.

For Our Mother
I just scrawled this one, so pardon if its a bit rough 'round the edges...
Save Our Mama!
Absent some monumental tragedy
A consequence of the Phallacy
Our true Mother, Nature
Will fall victim to the Patriarchy
Overcome by the pollution of excess
Imbalance on the global scale
Mass extinction must take place
The magnitude of which is beyond the pale
A grand awakening is our only hope
The collective Conscience can no longer be ignored
And i for one can only hope
We can all trade compassion for the sword
Mohammed must make peace with Jesus
Religions blend together as One
Prysmatic Truth to end the Apocalypse
As we all share this planet under the Sun
No more jihads, or missionaries with an Agenda
Its time we all just love and let live
Help our fellow beings and quit pretending
That we really know the truth from a myth
Cuz its those hellbent on creating Armeggedon
Threatening all life on this planet
But when those glaciers start sweating
There'll be no prophet that can save it
Sure, take what i say with a grain of salt
Throw it over yr shoulder if ya wanna
But alas, even those who will balk
Can't deny the truth of this matter
We are warming this place at an alarming pace
And may only have 20 more years to exist
As more and greater disasters take place
There'll be no more claiming its just a myth
"The end is nigh", the preacher sighed
It's been prophecied by the Revelation
But even with all the self-fulfilling scripture aside
It's almost too late for our salvation....
