Sometimes you need an avenging angel to sweep down and exterminate the scum. Lets face it, the world needs Travis Bickle. Sometimes you get so pissed off you become the avenging angel... or the Jukebox Avenger. Sometimes Dresden James breaks up The Union Dead. Sometimes watching Taxi Driver makes it all go away...at least for 72 hours. But sometimes a little outrage can be downright healthy. It gets things done. It reminds you that you have not sold out to the scum. I'm not advocating violence in any way, but you have to admire Bickle's principles.

Here are some inspirational quotes from Taxi Driver to brighten your day.



"Listen, you fuckers, you screwheads. Here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the scum, the cunts, the dogs, the filth, the shit. Here is a man who stood up."

"Thank God for the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk."

"Hey, I'm not square, you're the one that's square. Your full of shit, man. What are you talking about? You walk out with those fuckin' creeps and low-lifes and degenerates out on the streets and you sell your little pussy for peanuts? For some low-life pimp who stands in the hall? And I'm square? You're the one that's square, man. I don't go screwing fuck with bunch of killers and junkies like you do. You call that bein' hip? What world are you from?"
 
"I think someone should just take this city and just... just flush it down the fuckin' toilet." 
(note: he was really talking about Wilmington)

"Shit... I'm waiting for the sun to shine."

I would also like to say that the fine people at Milton Bradley are in no way associated with this post.
