Quotes: do you have a favorite one?

[Demonic_Dead_Psycho]

I heard this quote for the first time about a year ago (Because that's when I because a Star Wars fan) and I fell in love with it.

In the words of Yoda:

"DO OR DO NOT. THERE IS NO TRY."  

[dcikfyurt]

Robert A. Heinlein

The most preposterous notion that homo sapiens has ever dreamed up is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharin adoration of His Creatures, can be swayed by their prayers, and becomes petulant if he does not receive this flattery. Yet this absurd fantasy, without a shred of evidence to bolster it, pays all the expenses of the oldest, largest, and least productive industry in all history.

The second most preposterous notion is that copulation is inherently sinful.

Robert A. Heinlien

Space will be colonized - although possibly not by us. If we lose our nerve, there are plenty of other people on this planet. The construction crews may speak Chinese or Russian - Swahili or Portuguese. It does not take 'good old American know-how' to build a city in space. The laws of physics work just as well for others as they do for us.

Quote:

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots .. .

Patrick Tilley

It is hard to soar with the eagles when you have to work with the turkeys.

Nietzsche

That which deos not kill us makes us stronger.

heart heart heart My favourite quote ever.

Chasing Amy

I love you. And not, not in a friendly way, although I think we're great friends. And not in a misplaced affection, puppy-dog way, although I'm sure that's what you'll call it. I love you. Very, very simple, very truly. You are the epitome of everything I have ever looked for in another human being. And I know that you think of me as just a friend, and crossing that line is the furthest thing from an option you would ever consider. But I had to say it. I just, I can't take this anymore. I can't stand next to you without wanting to hold you. I can't, I can't look into your eyes without feeling that, that longing you only read about in trashy romance novels. I can't talk to you without wanting to express my love for everything you are. And I know this will probably queer our friendship - no pun intended - but I had to say it, because I've never felt this way before, and I don't care. I like who I am because of it. And if bringing this to light means we can't hang out anymore, then that hurts me. But God, I just, I couldn't allow another day to go by without just getting it out there, regardless of the outcome, which by the look on your face is to be the inevitable shoot-down. And, you know, I'll accept that. But I know... I know that some part of you is hesitating for a moment, and if there is a moment of hesitation, then that means you feel something too. All I ask, please, is that you just, you just not dismiss that - and try to dwell in it for just ten seconds. Alyssa, there isn't another soul on this ******** planet who has ever made me half the person I am when I'm with you, and I would risk this friendship for the chance to take it to the next plateau. Because it is there between you and me. You can't deny that. Even if, you know, even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I'm forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me, which - while I do appreciate it - I'd never need a painting of birds bought at a diner to remind me of.

"Pooh?" Piglet whispered. "Yes, piglet?" said Pooh. "Nothing, I just wanted to be sure of you."

I've made the most important discovery of my life. It's only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reasons can be found. I'm only here tonight because of you. You're the only reason I am, you're all the reasons I am.

Finding Nemo

When I look at you I can feel it, I look at you and I'm home, I dont want it to go away, I dont want to forget

Procrastination is like masturbation; it seems like a good idea at the time, but in the end you're just screwing yourself.
