But I’m modifying his tag to form a new “Quote Tag” (Hope you don’t mind Philip). It’s a pretty simple one. Here’s the tag:
Jot down 5 of your favorite quotes from the various books you’ve read. If you don’t have the books with you now, googling (Wikiquotes and the like) can be used to find them. Tag five people and acknowledge the person who tagged you.
So here goes my shot:
1. “Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them. With Major Major it had been all three.”
-- Catch-22
2. “He was a self-made man who owed his lack of success to nobody.”
-- Catch-22
3. "I'll tell you what justice is. Justice is a knee in the gut from the floor on the chin at night sneaky with a knife brought up down on the magazine of a battleship sandbagged underhanded in the dark without a word of warning.”
-- Catch-22
4. Toohey: “Mr. Roark, we're alone here. Why don't you tell me what you think of me? In any words you wish. No one will hear us.”
Roark: “But I don't think of you.”
-- The Fountainhead
5. “It's said that the worst thing one can do to a man is to kill his self-respect. But that's not true. Self-respect is something that can't be killed. The worst thing is to kill a man's pretense at it.”
And I tag Anjali (the sterling Silverine), Deepti (the Mindspace mind boggler), Mathew (another “Spark”ling fellow Apostle), and Philip (yeah, that’s a reverse tag for the Phlip side).
