[Spoon-business] [MoQ] The Quote Book


Hey everyone, your Minister of Quotes here. I don't know how much attention people have been paying to it, but the ministry of quotations website at http://www.nomic.net/~wonko is a little out of date, having not been updated, as far as I recall, in about 4 nweeks, maybe 5.

I think I'm probably owed something like 60 points for the ministry in that time, but since I haven't been keeping up with quotes I'm not sure I deserve them.

Anyway, the current ministry page is missing some quotes, and missing a lot of information for what quotes are there, so I thought perhaps it was about time I fixed it up.

I've gathered together everything I know and have, (including the ones I haven't added over the past few nweeks) and figured I'd publish it here, just in case anyone was interested in seeing it; I'll put it all on the site soon.

Incidentally, if anyone knows or feels like looking up any of the information marked with ?'s, that would be much appreciated; next weekend, after my finals are done, I'll try to find whatever's not here myself. I may drop the "said on ndate" column, as it's just irritating to figure out.


Without further ado, the Ministry of Quotations presents:

Fortunately it's cosmic godlike body odor, so the armies that navigate through the same space, lacking in godlike sense of smell, aren't slain by our sheer presence.
