We are not called to fight the battles of our fathers with a blind faith. We are called to examine their wars, and moreover, to discern whether their actions were sinful or just. Furthermore, we are called to decide whether to correct the errors of o...
I say to you all, once again -- in the light of Lord Voldemort's return, we are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided. Lord Voldemort's gift for spreading discord and enmity is very great. We can fight it only by showing an equal...
It is back to basics here,’ Jason said. ‘What women seek to find in a man is dictated by evolution and the role of the man as a hunter gatherer. Women want a bad boy who will treat them well but not so well that they will have nothing to bitch ab...
Winston: [Phone rings] Bail bonds. Ordell Robbie: Yeah, Max there? Winston: He ain't here right now, man. Ordell Robbie: Well, where he at? Out of town? Winston: He's AROUND, man. Ordell Robbie: Well, gimme his home number. Winston: No, I'll give you...

Ricky Roma: I'm going to tell you something. Your life is your own. You have a contract with your wife? You have certain things you do jointly? Bond there. And there are other things, and those things are yours. And you needn't feel ashamed, you need...
Man in a Punt: Great sport, this! Woman in a Punt: What? Man in a Punt: I said, it's great sport, this punting! [Their punt passes another one beached behind some reeds, where James and Sylvia are making out] James Bond: I couldn't agree with him mor...
