Princess · 08-23-2011, 11:10 AM

Are you a quotes person? I have five eternal calendars and I love poetry and history, so I have a lot of quotes I love.

What are yours? You go first..I's shy.

1.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

2.
We always become what we hate the most.
(This is one is often true if you think about it - people who hate gossips always end up gossiping, people who fat people either end up fat themselves, or THINKING they are and hating themselves for it)

3.
Never leave a sentence unfini

$50 flat fee + parts; no charge if I can't fix it.

Oooh, I thought you meant price quotes.

"Life is a state of mind." - Mr. Doctor of Devil Doll, last line of the song Eliogabalus on the album Eliogabalus.

edit:

That's one of their shorter songs. The shortest is the only other track of that album at ~20min. All the other albums are just one song each.

Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul; and sings the tune without words, and never stops at all.

Hope can be paralyzing.

Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed.

We can forgive a child who is afraid of the dark, the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.

Life is a hell of a thing to happen to a person.

EDIT: I left out my number one quote. Hope you like Wordsworth.

What though the radiance which was once so bright
Be now for ever taken from my sight,
Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be;
In the soothing thoughts that spring
Out of human suffering;
In the faith that looks through death,
In years that bring the philosophic mind.

Mussels · 08-23-2011, 11:40 AM

part of a longer quote, but this is the part i remember and like:

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.

theJesus · 08-23-2011, 11:47 AM

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." -- Inigo Montoya in The Princess Bride

"Chiana: What if the creature's waiting?
John Crichton: Then piss it off.
Chiana: How?
John Crichton: Pretend it's me." -- Farscape S04E01 Crichton Kicks

"Aeryn: But you say that you want to go back to this place, Earth, a place that you tell me has so much disease and suffering?
John: Well, you guys don't have chocolate." -- Farscape S01E10 They've Got a Secret

"I can't wait to get my sea legs!"

"..But you don't got no legs Lieutenant Dan."

Obviously Forrest Gump.

"Who are you talking to right now?"
"Who is it you think you see..."
"Do you know how much i make a year? I mean even if i told you, you wouldn't believe it!"
"Do you know what would happen if i suddenly decided to stop going in to work?"
"A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up...disappears...it ceases to exist without me."
"No you clearly don't know who you're talking to!"- Walter White (Breaking Bad)
______________________________-

Let me tell you something, kid. Working sucks, okay? Working sucks! And it doesn't matter if you're in a bank, a department store or a doughnut factory, because once you've been there long enough, the only thing you'll care about is when your next pay increase is, how many vacation days you've accrued and if your health insurance is gonna pay for the cholesterol medicine that keeps your heart pumping no matter how much shit you've worked through it. Then after you've gained 20 or 30 pounds because you're so fucking uptight all the time, you wake and discover you're working for your father-in-law in a position with a gratuitous title and you're totally replaceable. And not only is the new guy better at your job, but he's got a better car and better jokes and better hair! So no matter what you do, you make sure you make a lot of money doing it because it all sucks!- Bill (Meet Bill)
