Favorite personal quotes

I love reading quotes and all time sayings. I've browsed many websites, but it seems they have almost the same stuff put by the authors. So I'm hoping here to get some personal quotes or sayings about anything in life, from you guys. Can either be something with deeper meaning or fun. Would be nice if you shared yours.

I can quote a famous man.



"Hey, that's not a real gun, is it?"

- John Lennon

When there's no information to be had, someone will produce it, and others will consume it, regardless of the quality or integrity of that information.
-Kris Kopitzke

"I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend, to the death, your right to say it. --Voltaire"

I actually heard that it's not Voltaire's quote, but his biographer's.

Oh, here it is - Evelyn Beatrice Hall.

"Who cares, I just like the quote."

If you don't care you can just avoid replying. Just a thought.

i didn't know you were a fan of fall out boy, denial. but then again your music choices don't ever make any sense, so i'm not too surprised.

hmm. quotes. let's see...

"from matter to essence we travel." - aristotle
"i do not intend to tiptoe through life only to arrive safely at death." - anonymous

"don't carry the world upon your shoulders
for well you know that it's a fool
who plays it cool
by making his world a little colder."

- the beatles

"so. so you think you can tell,
heaven from hell,
blue skies from pain?
can you tell a green field
from a could steel rail,
a smile from a veil?
do you think you can tell?
did they get you trade
your heroes for ghosts,
hot ashes for trees,
hot air for a cool breeze,
cold comfort for change?
and did you exchange
a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?
how i wish...how i wish you were here.
we're just two lost souls
swimming in a fish bowl, year after year;
running over the same old ground.
what have we found?
the same old fears.
wish you were here."

- pink floyd

"don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy;
she'll beat you if she's able.
you know the queen of hearts is always your best bet."

- the eagles

"Don't work harder, work smarter" 😉

"Whatever faults I have, Being Wrong Has Never Been One Of Them"

Margaret Thatcher (ex British PM)

Mr Wheat , Mr Wheat, Bam Bam Buck Wheat is dead.

The day you learn that subjectivity is a choice ... is the day you be will be free from the disgruntlement you cause yourself.

If you don't want to hear the answer, then don't ask the question.

Strength comes from bravely facing what would hurt you if you ignored it .. weakness comes from ignoring that which wouldn't have hurt you, if you had only faced it.

A thing is interesting because of thinking about it, and not because of it being new.

Forget about "What if"
its "What Is" that matters

Sometimes we build walls to see who cares enough to break them down

"He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man." - Dr. Johnson

I called on Dr. Johnson one morning, when Mrs. Williams, the blind lady, was conversing with him. She was telling him where she had dined the day before. "There were several gentlemen there," said she, "and when some of them came to the tea-table, I found that there had been a good deal of hard drinking." She closed this observation with a common and trite moral reflection; which, indeed, is very ill-founded, and does great injustice to animals -- "I wonder what pleasure men can take in making beasts of themselves." "I wonder, Madam," replied the Doctor, "that you have not penetration to see the strong inducement to this excess; for he who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man."

"He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man." - Dr. Johnson

LOL, thought i recognized this line from somewhere; it's the very first lyrics sung in 'Avenged Sevenfold's song 'Bat Country' ..awesome quote & song too, btw!
