Great Spam Quotes in History

[theology dude]

Purpose: To provide incontrovertible evidence that the great leaders and thinkers of the past engaged in the art and science of SPAM

The only rule: The post must contain a quote from a great leader or thinker (real or fictional. I don’t care) and the quotes most include plenty of SPAM

English Clergyman

I :spam:, therefore I am...

[LeiLani]

Four score and seven years ago Dee Dee and Yxboom brought forth on this continent a website, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all spam is created equal... We cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this spam. The brave men, living and dead who spammed here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who spammed here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored spammers we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these spammers shall not have spammed in vain, that this website shall have spam, and that spam of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the internet.
