The Words That Do It For You


BTH

Recommended Posts

Okay, this is a pretty random thread but I know everyone has their own favourite quote/saying that they use. Here are a couple of my faves:

"I've been called worse things by better people" (the one from PTG's old avatar or whatever it's called.

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" This one is a facy way of saying "You can't embarass the shameless" - I find them true though.

How about this one from Dark Faerie's MSN name -

"nothing, nothing is wrong, and asking is against the rules. crying is against the rules. you're strong, don't let them break you."

There are also funny quotes. Like a certain captured criminal that was brought to the gallows. His final words were "Are you sure it's safe?" Major Jack Sparrow moment, right there.

Something I always wondered:

"Nobody's perfect"

vs

"Practice makes perfect"

Of course there are others but I'm sure (and I'm sure others too) are always interested in a good quote.

So anyone there who can hit me up with some quotes? :D

Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is energy condensed into a slow vibration; that we are all one conciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are all just an imagination of ourselves....here's Tom with the weather.

"You can never go too far"

"I do have a test today, that wasn't bullsh**. It's on European Socialism. I mean, really, what's the point? I'm not European. I don't plan on being European. So, who gives a crap if they're Socialists? They could be fascist anarchists, it still wouldn't change the fact that I don't own a car."

"A person should not believe in an "-ism," he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me."

"Anyone who ever told you that practice makes perfect, is a Liar!... Practice doesnt make perfect, it merely makes permanent."

My favorites are:

Ne Illegitimi carborum est which in Latin means "Never let the bastards grind you down".

“There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics” Benjamin Disraeli or Mark Twain

Also from Mark Twain: " Never let school inferfere with your education".

"Talking out of turn? That's a paddlin'. Lookin' out the window? That's a paddlin'. Staring at my sandals? That's a padddlin'. Paddling the school canoe? Oh, you better believe that's a paddlin" old man (Jasper) replacement teacher in the Simpsons.

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

Aesop

A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.

William Shakespeare

and

I wasted time, and now doth time waste me.

William Shakespeare

Love that PET quote ... one of my all time favorites!

"Goaltending is a normal job. Sure! How would you like it in your job if everytime you made a mistake, a

red light went on over your desk and fifteen thousand people stood up and yelled at YOU? "

- Hall of Fame goaltender, Jacques Plante

And to think I still laugh at this one! :P

"on s'en va nulle part si l'action confirme pas le sens de nos paroles" les vulgaires machins

translated:

one leaves no leaves if the action confirms not the direction of our words

"Clowns to the left of me; Jokers to the right - Here I am stuck in the middle with you....."

(From the song 'Stuck in the Middle with You' by Stealers Wheel 1974 Gerry Rafferty & J. Egan)

I plan to have that one inscribed on my tombstone!

And there are quite a few lines from Shakespeare that I love too.

"Resistance is futile." - Borg. Useful when you're having a moment of pure superiority.

"Creation is an act of sheer will." -Jurassic Park. I have this tatooed on my heart since I'm a writer.

And if you ever need to laugh, from RDS talkback:

"Ribeiro is the Franchise."

*giggles* Still love that one.
