Cobb-

Ty Cobb: Stumpy, in humility, in all humility, I am the greatest player to ever play the game.....no one even a close second.

Louis Prima: With all the great players playing ball right now, how well do you think you would do against today's pitchers?
Ty Cobb: Well, I figure against today's pitchers I'd only probably hit about .290
Louis Prima: .290? Well that's amazing, because you batted over .400 a... a whole bunch of times. Now tell us all, we'd all like to know, why do you think you'd only hit .290?
Ty Cobb: Well, I'm 72 f**king years old you ignorant son of a b****.

Gandhi-

Nahari: I'm going to Hell! I killed a child! I smashed his head against a wall.
Gandhi: Why?
Nahari: Because they killed my son! The Muslims killed my son!
[indicates boy's height]
Gandhi: I know a way out of Hell. Find a small boy, about this high
[indicates same height]
Gandhi: , whose parents have been killed, and raise him as your own. But make sure he is Muslim, and raise him as one.

Gandhi: An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.

Gandhi: Whenever I despair, I remember that the way of truth and love has always won. There may be tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they may seem invincible, but in the end, they always fail. Think of it: always.

Gandhi: They may break my bones, torture my body, even kill me, then they will have my dead body. NOT MY OBEDIENCE!
