Amazing Quotings from Books. . .

Calvin: The secret to getting donations is to depict everyone who disagrees with you as the enemy. Then you explain how they're systematically working to destroy everything you hold dear. It's a war of values! Rational discussion is hopeless! Compromise is unthinkable? Our only hope is well funded antagonism, so we need your money to keep up the fight! Hobbes: How cynically unconstructive. Calvin: Enmity sells. . . SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Calvin: I am a great believer in the value of novelty. I say anything new is good by definition! It can   shock, insult or offend me, so long as it doesn't bore me! If you can't give me something new, then repackage the old so it looks new! Novelty is all that matters! I won't pay attention if it's not fresh and different! Hobbes: I see why timeless truth doesn't sell. Source: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Calvin: Graphic violence in the media. Does it glamorize violence? Sure. Does it desensitize us to violence? Of course. Does it help us to tolerate violence? You bet. Does it stunt our fellow beings? Heck yes. Does it cause violence? SOURCE:  Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson.

Calvin: The more you know, the harder it is to take decisive action. Once you become informed, you start seeing the complexities and shades of gray. You realize that nothing is as clear and simple as it appears. Ultimately, knowledge is paralyzing.                                                                                     SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Calvin: Once it's too late, you appreciate what a miracle life is. You realize that nature is ruthless and our existence is very fragile and temporary, and precious. But to go on with your daily affairs, you can't really think about that. Which is probably why everyone takes the world for granted and why we act so thoughtlessly.                                                                                     SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Calvin: We don't understand what really causes events to happen. History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That's why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices. . .   SOURCE: Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson
