I rarely get any "real" comments from anyone other than my two faithful readers. That doesn't stop me from periodically sifting through the Spam for mis-labeled "real" comments.
Recently I noticed a pattern. Someone was posting some witty one-liners (unrelated to the entry). It was pretty clear that it was some sort of spam bot, but they were so witty, I had to find the source.
Well, I can't say with certainty that I found it, but I did find a collection of quotes in a "fortune" list that contained all the quotes I was looking for.
Here are my favorites from the list on the subject of taxes:
Intaxication: Misguided euphoria about a tax refund (of your own money).
Taxation WITH representation isn't so hot, either!
Taxes are going up so fast, the government might price itself out of the market.
There is nothing more permanent than a temporary tax.
Any new tax law must exempt enough voters to win the next election.
Death and taxes may be inevitable, but they should not be simultaneous. -- Mack
The ability to tax is the ability to control.
The power to tax involves the power to destroy. -- John Marshall
There is only one way to kill capitalism: By taxes, taxes, and more taxes.
A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors and miss.
Death and taxes are inevitable; at least death doesn't get worse every year.
I've just about always hated taxes. Becoming a small-business owner has only galvanized my dislike.
