brnaprod (Jesus R Diaz De Leon):
Yo le pido a mi Diss que me escuche,
Y que pronto se acabe mi pena.
Pues yo quiero volver a mi tierra,
Junto a mis amigos,
Mis padres queridos y vivir en paz.
Estoy lejos y solo en la vida,
Al cantar mi pena se mitiga.
Mi guitarra que llora conmigo,
Ella es mi testigo,
Que lloro a lo macho y en Diss tengo fi.
-Banda Machos
"Los Machos Tambiin Lloran"

dskern (David Kern):
"Beneath the rule of men entirely great,
The pen is mightier than the sword."
--- Edward Bulwer-Lytton, _Richelieu_ (1839)
So, how many years have people been quoting that out of context? Would
you call the US government "entirely great"?

"1935 will go down in History! For the first time, a civilized nation has full
gun registration! Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient and the
world will follow our lead to the future!"
--- Adolf Hitler
And why did he want gun registration? To enable the taking away of the guns:
"... History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subjected peoples
to carry arms have prepared their own fall."
--- Adolf Hitler, Edict of 18 March 1939
And he isn't the only one:
"I don't care about crime, I just want to get the guns."
--- Sen. Howard Metzenbaum
"Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the
peoples' liberty's teeth."
--- George Washington
