The Quote Hound

This is a little project inspired by my sister. I collect quotes that I find funny or mean something to me. I've also spewed a few of these out myself. If you find any quotes here inaccurate or unattributed, it's because I did little or no research. Contact me and I'll try to fix the offenders.

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage --

-- to move in the opposite direction."
