There are two books on top of each other:
pg. 14 of Microsoft Encyclopedia of Networking
100 VG-AnyLan: An alternative to Fast Ethernet that provides 100-Mbps communications based on technology developed by Hewlett-Packard...
pg. 14 The 48 Laws of Power:

The man of power welcomes conflict, using enemies to enhance his reputation as a surefooted fighter who can be relied upon in times of uncertainty.
By the way, Efexeye, Happy Birthday to Me is my favorite Dr. Suess book.

You my friend, I will defend, and if we change, well I love you anyway.
Pg 18, line 4 of "Holy Blood, Holy Grail":
The serious historical criticism that appeared was of essentially two kinds.
Quite a compelling line, eh?

You have seen the light! Of the few dances I've gone to, I always had a competition to see who could do the most goofy looking dance. From that we've developed the weedwhacker, the shopping cart, the hydraulic arm, and the hip seizure.
