wow that is nice.
My favorite quote is more of a story, which i am not sure i have completely right(cannot find book i read it from) It is attributed to the Taoist Sage Chuange-tze, and it goes something like
"There once was a man who was tired of seeing his footprints, and wanted to escape his shadow, so he ran. But no matter how far he ran, his footprints followed him, and no matter how fast he went, his shadow kept pace. So he ran faster and faster, until dying from exhaustion. If he had just stood still, there would be no more footprints, if he had rested in the shade, he would cast no shadow."

No Grateful Dead, no Jimi Hendrix, what is this generation coming too!

C'mon, am I the only 17-year-old hippie left? There's gotta be more.

Ripple by the Dead is full of quotes.

EDIT: Forget it, I simply have to post the whole song, there's too many great quotes:

If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung,
Would you hear my voice come thru the music,
Would you hold it near as it were your own?

Its a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken,
Perhaps theyre better left unsung.
I dont know, dont really care
Let there be songs to fill the air.

Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

Reach out your hand if your cup be empty,
If your cup is full may it be again,
Let it be known there is a fountain,
That was not made by the hands of men.

There is a road, no simple highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
And if you go no one may follow,
That path is for your steps alone.

Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

But if you fall you fall alone,
If you should stand then whos to guide you?
If I knew the way I would take you home.

If you take a minute and analyze that, there's so much to it. Now China Cat Sunflower, I think Robert Hunter was just plain stoned when he wrote that.

Whoever said it wasn't all about winning probably lost.

"Then all I swore that I would never be was now so suddenly the only thing I wanted to become" - Dream Theater - Octavarium. A lyric that suddenly applies very much to me :/

"They'll never hit us from that dist-"
From some admiral in the Civil War, those were his last words lol

"I think [Optimus Prime]'d make a neat president!" - Spike Witwicky, 3rd episode of the original Transformers.

My siggy for my favorite one, another one:

-A leader is a follower willing to let go.

And lastly:

-You can always follow paths made in life, but the right choice, perchance could be slipping off the path and leaving a trail behind.

Here are some quotes my girlfriend sent me to cheer me up when I was upset once.. I really appreicate them, and hope you guys will too =)
_________________________________________________________________________

Accept everything in life and you will be one more happy person in the world~

There is always something good coming out of something bad. You just gotta look for the good and stop dwelling on the bad~

Don't cry 'cause it's over...smile 'cause it happened~ =)

Never look down on anybody unless you're helping them up~

Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail~

Friends are like four leaf clovers, hard to find, lucky to have...

If everything is a coincidence, then it's Fate not coincidence~

Don't always go for the guy who can sweep you off your feet 'cause he can drop you on your butt just as fast

A memory lasts forever, never does it die, true friends stay together, never say goodbye~

Your future depends on your dreams...so go to bed XD

Enjoy!

They say people are innocent until proven guilty, and people will say they are innocent until someone proves them guilty.

Ignorance might be bliss for you, but its a pain in the ass for everyone else.

Self made quotes after all these Nexon bannings.

Games = waste of time. Maplestory = massive waste of time. Maplestory = good game.

"If you say "PLZ" just because it's shorter than "PLEASE" I feel perfectly justified to say "NO" because it's shorter than "YES".[/SIZE]

and isnt it.
If someone askes me cc plz just because its shorter than change channels please
I tell them no because its shorter than yes

and isnt it.
If someone askes me cc plz just because its shorter than change channels please
I tell them no because its shorter than yes

I hate that quote <_< cc plz has the same basic meaning as "change channels please", whereas "no" has the complete opposite to "yes". How about you say "k" because that's shorter than "no"?


That's off-topic though, so no more continuing this argument!

"You always hear patriots talking about dying for their country, but never about killing for their country"
