Yes, I'm quite interested to know what your favorite quote is.

I have two, actually. The last one was found just recently and it belongs to one of my friends (movie critic):

"Do not judge those who try and fail. Judge those who fail to try."

"People are unsteady and unpredictable and will be more dangerous if you provide them with the rope in which to hang you." :D

"Deep in the fundamental heart of mind and Universe, there is a reason."

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship

and one more suited to this industry:

work your ass off harder than everyone else, and you will succeed.

My favorite quote is one i always say to myself...Created by myself :)

"No matter which Direction you choose, you can only move forward"
It means no matter what path you take, you can only go on with life. :) ITS DEEP!:bawling:

I just made this quote up 10 seconds ago on another post on WHT...

"if you don't have the money..You wont always get what you want.. And if you do have the money, you still will not always get what you want.."

Actually, I saw that in a sig here about a year ago. It's since become one of my favorite sayings. I wish I could remember who had it so I could give credit... :emlaugh:

Vito

I can almost bet you Dan Quayle said that one too ;)

Hey, BTW, can I assume from your username that you are a fan of our pathetic Toronto Raptors??

Vito

Actually no.. bad assumption
I used Raptor Because my dad gave me a Raptor's Claw for my 12th birthday :)

Sorry, we Torontonians are desperate for any excuse to recruit fans for our pathetic pathetic Raptors.

Your confidence level is equal to the inverse of your reconfirmation level.

The first one I heard somewhere and the second one is mine, mine you hear! And anyone who argues with me must have a low confidence level about it, because I will keep reconfirming my ownership. :eek:

One I used to tell my techs, it's mine best I can remember, unless I heard it somewhere and forgot and now I think it's mine and it isn't really:

When you're so smart that no one can teach you anything, you're only half right.

I may not always be right, but I'm never wrong.
I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

Stupid quotes.

USA Today has come out with a new survey: Apparently three out of four people make up 75 percent of the population.
- David Letterman


You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 today and we don't know where the hell she is.

When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, "Why god? Why me?" and the thundering voice of God answered, "There's just something about you that pisses me off."
- Stephen King


I'm always amazed to hear of air crash victims so badly mutilated that they have to be identified by their dental records. What I can't understand is, if they don't know who you are, how do they know who your dentist is?
- Paul Merton

Let me give you a little inside information about God.
God likes to watch.
He's a prankster. Think about it.
He gives man INSTINCTS! He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusment, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste! Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha! And when you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fu*kin' ass off. He's a tight-ass! He's a sadist! He's an absentee landlord. Worship THAT? NEVER!

Anyone knows this one?

"Cogito, Ergo sum" or "I think, therefore I am" - Descartes.

I also like that however it's more a philosophy .. Religoius belief .. than a quote. Although strictly speaking, he did say it, therefore it's a quote.

* Interesting point has just occured to me ... "Does that mean that all those people that don't think (never actually ever use there brain) don't exist?" Perhaps there a figment of our imaginations.
