    No, it's "An eye for an eye and the world would be blind."

    I have a couple to post:

    "Why, if all were so simple, none would suffer in this world!" ~Zidane Tribal, FF9

    "A woman who wants to be equal to a man lacks ambition." ~Unknown *evil grin* :evil:

    "When women are depressed, they go shopping. Men invade another country." ~I don't remember who, I'll find out ;)

    "Far less happy, for we have
    Help nor hope beyond the grave
    Man awakes to joy or sorrow
    Ours the sleep that knows no morrow"

    ~Summoning, "The Loud Music of the Sky"

    "They say that its every soldiers duty to die for his country! To hell with that, war is won by making the enemy soldiers die for his country!" General Patton, maybe not the right words but the meaning is right.
