The question is pretty straightforward.
What quote, from history or Fiction do you think is the funniest, or most inspirational, or any reason; Is your favorite?

1 回复Miranda Keyes: "it just says regret, regret, regret. Over and over, any idea what it means? Sgt. Johnson: "Dear humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret coming to earth, and we most definitely regret that the corps just blew up our raggedy ass fleet!"

Top 5 quotes (that aren't mine): "I guess I'm pretty much of a lone wolf. I don't say I don't like people at all, but, to tell you the truth, I only like it then if I have a chance to look deep into their hearts and their minds." -Bela Lugosi "When the legends die, the dreams end; there is no more greatness." -Tecumseh "The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value." -Thomas Paine "I reject your reality and substitute my own!" -The Doctor "Don’t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine." -Ludwig van Beethoven .... ... .. . -Prince of Wolves

[i]"For us, the storm has passed... The war is over. But let us never forget the courage beyond measure; sacrifice, and unshakable conviction that their fight... our fight, was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heros fallen. They ennobled all of is, and they shall not be forgotten.[/i]

2 回复If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

由The Doctor编辑: 1/5/2015 7:41:07 PMA man who follows someone else's rules isn't a man at all. One who knows nothing can understand nothing. "You can't break a man the way you do a dog or a horse - the harder you beat a man, the taller he stands.” What seperates the strong from the weak is the abillity to take the beating, hell, to love the beating... No matter how great the pain..." And my all time favorite - A man chooses, a slave obeys. IF ANYONE GUESSES ORIGIN OF ALL OF THEM THEY GET........ A MYSTICAL COOKIE!!!

1 回复"I will accept any rules that you feel necessary to your freedom. I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do"

2 回复由TheQ5编辑: 11/29/2014 5:30:51 AM"And so it goes..." from [i]Slaughterhouse-5[/i] by Kurt Vonnegut. You won't understand unless you've read the book. Another of my favorites: "Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere." Carl Sagan said that. Also, OP needs to change their avatar.
