Making a key decision now for our kids, its religion decision time, yo — Denis Leary

"And when it comes time to confess your sins in the Lapsed Catholic Church, guess who you confess your sins to? Thats right, Father Leary. You walk in and say, "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned." You know what I say? "Thats fucking great! What did you do?" "I, um, thought impure thoughts many times this week- "Fuckin excellent! What else?" "Uh, I jerked off like five times-" "Thats FUCKING great! You know what your penance is? Run across the street to that store, steal two cases of beer and a pizza, and bring it back here, OK? Cause were gonna sit around the rectory and smoke and eat pizza and drink beer and watch TV, and if we see the pope on TV, were gonna give him the finger and make fun of his hats, OK?"

"(talking about Marv Albert) Marv, Marv, Marv, Marv, Marv, Marv, Marv. This is God, what the HELL were you thinking?!?"

"Did I miss a fucking meeting with the coffee? You can get every other flavor except COFFEE FLAVORED COFFEE! They got mochaccino, theyve got chococcino, frapaccino, capaccino, rapaccino, Al Pacino, WHAT THE FUCK! www.whattheFUCK.com!!"

"...and there aint a goddamn thing anybody can do about it, you know why? Because weve got the bombs! Thats why, yeah! Two words: NUCLEAR FUCKIN WEAPONS! OK?!"

"I love to smoke. I smoke seven thousand packs a day!"

"The people you would have overdose on drugs never would. Like Mötley Crüe would never fucking overdose, man, never. You could put them in a room with two tons of crack, theyd come out half an hour later, goin "ROCK ON MAN!"

"As long as you keep getting born, it’s okay to die sometimes."

"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that theres free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate."

"History is a strange experience. The world is quite small now; but history is large and deep. Sometimes you can go much farther by sitting in your own home and reading a book of history, than by getting onto a ship or an airplane and traveling a thousand miles. When you go to Mexico City through space, you find it a sort of cross between modern Madrid and modern Chicago, with additions of its own; but if you go to Mexico City through history, back only 500 years, you will find it as distant as though it were on another planet: inhabited by cultivated barbarians, sensitive and cruel, highly organized and still in the Copper Age, a collection of startling, of unbelievable contrasts."

"As soon as a thought or word becomes a tool, one can dispense with actually ‘thinking’ it, that is, with going through the logical acts involved in verbal formulation of it. As has been pointed out, often and correctly, the advantage of mathematics—the model of all neo-positivistic thinking—lies in just this ‘intellectual economy.’ Complicated logical operations are carried out without actual performance of the intellectual acts upon which the mathematical and logical symbols are based. … Reason … becomes a fetish, a magic entity that is accepted rather than intellectually experienced."

"Our feminist culture at the present moment is completely dependent on capitalism. My grandmother was still scrubbing clothes on the back porch on a washboard!"

"A word of the faith that never balks, Here or henceforward it is all the same to me, I accept Time absolutely. It alone is without flaw, it alone rounds and completes all, That mystic baffling wonder alone completes all. (23)"
