Guest Mrmegakirby Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 They can be from anything. A movie, Tv show, song, poem, catch phrase, quote - anything at all. I'll list a few of mine. "Morons hate it when you call them a moron" - The catcher in the Rye. "The world is my country, my religion is to do good" - No idea where it's from. " When enough is enough, that's when you know, that you're halfway there" - Rise Against "He's noble enough to know what's right, and weak enough not to do it - he's a new world man." - Rush Those are mine - now what's yours?

Tidgy Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 It is sometimes said that scientists are unromantic, that their passion to figure out robs the world of beauty and mystery. But is it not stirring to understand how the world actually works that white light is made of colors, that color is the way we perceive the wavelengths of light, that transparent air reflects light, that in so doing it discriminates among the waves, and that the sky is blue for the same reason that the sunset is red? It does no harm to the romance of the sunset to know a little bit about it. Or pretty much everything else he has ever spoken or written. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bows Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 They say it is better to light a candle then to curse the dark. In the eyes of the youth there are question marks, like freedom, freedom for their mind and soul, we don't see them, seem them for what they're worth, that's why we lead em, lead em to these wars and what is it we feed em, feed em our impurities, and who i...t is we treat em, treat em like the enemy humanity will need em.

das1330 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Aside from the quotes in my signature, I have found flag officers of the United States military to be quote - creating machines. Such quotes include: No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. - Gen. George S. Patton We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way. - Gen. George S. Patton I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you [bleep] with me, I'll kill you all - Gen. James Mattis Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet. - Gen. James Mattis Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons. - Gen. Douglas MacArthur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orpheus Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I don't have any "famous" quotes, but a bit of a brutal truth. From the day we are born, we're raised on some perceptions. That the hero always will save the day, that everything will be great, etc. There's one side to it that is brutally excluded until the worst possible time, that you don't have the context to realize that it's all bull[cabbage]. You aren't told that what happens and why the main character does what he does is for utterly arbitrary reason. They'd be fine if you were introduced to these things after learning how this world works, but you're introduced to these fantasies as early as the age of five, or earlier. Cue you ending up losing your favorite pet, having your heart broken by a girl/boy, losing your parents, your career plans will ultimately fail in pretty much all cases, you'll be unhappy with your body, and you'll suffer in more ways than one. You were set up to be crushed, without even realizing it, like one massive Xanatos gambit. Then there's ways that the 21st century is making us miserable, although I don't want to go into that. This century might have all these fine advancements, but it ultimately made things worse for us. I'm tired, and I'll elaborate on this one later. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal. OPEN WIDE HERE COMES THE HELICOPTER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"While the vessel is safe, whether it be a large or a small one, then is the time for sailor and helmsman and everyone in his turn to show his zeal and to take care that it is not capsized by anyone's malice or inadvertence; but when the sea has overwhelmed it, zeal is useless."

AndyPandy Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Alot from V for Vendetta: Are you a Muslim? No. I'm in television.Who are you? Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask. Well I can see that. Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. Oh. Right. Are you like a... crazy person? I'm quite sure they will say so. A building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. A symbol, in and of itself is powerless, but with enough people behind it, blowing up a building can change the world. Die! Die! Why won't you die?... Why won't you die? Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof. Whatchya gonna do, huh? We've swept this place. You've got nothing. Nothing but your bloody knives and your fancy karate gimmicks. We have guns. No, what you have are bullets, and the hope that when your guns are empty I'm no longer be standing, because if I am you'll all be dead before you've reloaded. People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people. And of course there's the quote in my sig. So don't let anyone tell you you're not worth the earth, These streets are your streets, this turf is your turf, Don't let anyone tell you that you've got to give in, Cos you can make a difference, you can change everything, Just let your dreams be your pilot, your imagination your fuel, Tear up the book and write your own damn rules, Use all that heart, hope and soul that you've got, And the love and the rage that you feel in your gut, And realise that the other world that you're always looking for, Lies right here in front of us, just outside this door, And it's up to you to go out there and paint the canvas, After all, you were put on the earth to do this, So shine your light so bright that all can see, Take pride in being whoever the [bleep] you want to be.
