Quotes.

I was wondering, does anyone know any famous quotes they'd like to share? It can be from just about anything, like books or movies. I'll start with this.
(That was a great movie by the way, one of my favorites. Also, try to post a link if you can.)

"You miss 100% of the shots you never take." -- Wayne Gretsky

Similarly: "Is shame you fall down nobody push you." -- The Joy Luck Club
I'll start with this.
That's one of the few movies I've seen that hasn't lost a lick of coolness in a quarter century.

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" -Epicurus

"Don't be a fool and die for your country, Let the other sonofabitch die for his." -Patton

And my personal favourite:

"A proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven." -Jean Chretien

My Personal Fav? Really any Mark Twain Quote.

"There are only two forces that can carry light to all the corners of the globe... the sun in the heavens and the Associated Press down here."

"Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear."

"The holy passion of friendship is of so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring a nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money."
"No sir, I am not Insane, I just have Anger issues..." ~ The First words i said to my Counselor after I got kicked off the bus.
Wait, you want to see my Art? It ain't much to look at...
Titanic fans rejoice! I have a Titanic RP board. Only... not on the Titanic... and kinda on the Teen side...Nothing real gratuitous though!
"Evil isn't doing bad. It's doing bad and not Feeling bad about it afterwards." ~ Avaric, Wicked. Think about that the next tiem you call someone evil.

I feel like making up my own: "He who wears a watch will always check it. He who doesn't will always ask 'What time is it?' Either way, he'll always be a clockwatcher."

Just a quote from my old scoutmaster that's stuck with me:
"A man admits when he is wrong and does what he can to correct that wrong."

"If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth, only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair." - C.S. Lewis


"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe." - Albert Einstein


"It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." - Mark Twain
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.
