America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.--Hunter S. Thompson

The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.--Hunter S. Thompson

Lol I just read that a couple of months back.

Another Candide quote:

Quote:

"Alas! My dear... unless you have been raped by two Bulgarians, stabbed twice in the belly, have had two castles destroyed, two fathers and mothers murdered before your eyes, and have seen two of your lovers flogged in an auto-da-fe, I do not see how you can surpass me; moreover, I was born a Baroness with seventy-two quarterings and I have been a kitchen wench."

The best quote on that whole one is when the lady who said that goes on to say that she's contemplated suicide many times but can't bring herself to do it because in spite of her misery she still loves life. She says something about "fondling the snake that slowly devours our heart" but I can't find the exact passage online. It was my personal favorite quote.
