What beautiful and priceless potlatches the affluent society will see – whether it likes it or not! – when the exuberance of the younger generation discovers the pure gift; a growing passion for stealing books, clothes, food, weapons or jewelry simply for the pleasure of giving them away"- Raoul Vaneigem, The Revolution of Everyday Life

You really should track down a copy of Caffrey's "P.M.O."
Another good one, although I don't remember who said it:
"The reasonable man seeks to climatize himself to the world. The unreasonable man seeks to climatize the world to himself. Therefore all progress in inhingent upon the unreasonable man."

Say;
I just finished "Hogfather" by Terry Pratchett, and have another good quote:
"HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE."
....and yes, it HAS to be in allcaps.
"It only kills monsters" is a great quote too; but you'd have to read the book to get it.

Rick Deckard: [narrating] "I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die".
