[Redacted] does "Great Presidential Quotes"

Truman: "The buck stops here." (Sign on his desk)
[Redacted] Version: "The buck stops with everybody!"

Okay, everybody can play, now! I'll start us off:

FDR: "We have nothing to fear but fear itself."
[Redacted]: "Fear whatever I tell you to fear."

JFK: "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."
[Redacted]: "Ask what you can do for me, and do it!"

derivatively,
Bright

Best be silent and be thought a fool, then to speak and remove all doubt
{redacted} I say whatever I want

(Emerson) What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside you.
[redacted] What lies behind you and what lies in front of you pales to the hot babe that lies next to you

(Emerson) Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience
Adopt the pace of me, my secret is how smart I am

(Keats) Now a soft kiss - Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss
(trump) Now a tongue kiss and I vow to grab her by the pussy.

(Aquinas) Every judgement of conscience, be it right or wrong, be it about things evil in themselves or morally indifferent, is obligatory, in such wise that he who acts against his conscience always sins.
(trump) What's a conscience?

(Acquinas) Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do
(trump) Three things are necessary for this country; believe that the news is fake, desire me and know we should build a wall

Luke 22: 7 ] "For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
[redacted] For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? The one who reclines of course. That's why he is reclining and not serving. Serving is for losers
