I did this post awhile back on the other website, but it seemed to turn into an arguement instead of a dicussion, so I thought I would try it here, this board is so mcuh calmer...I love it. So, here we go, put your favorite quotes or saying out there, I have several, but will only put them up one at a time. Heres one of my top ones: Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. -Ronald Reagan
"I always tell the truth. Even when I lie." - Tony Montana in Scarface. ONE of my favorites as well as the one in my sig.
Not one of my favorites but its funny. I found it on another board. "Lick my plate you dog diick" from Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
You've never lived until you've almost died, for those who fought for it, life has a flavor the protected will never know. -Anon
"One thing this week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it, than to need a gun and not have one." - True Romance movie.
I admire Vince Lombardi as much as anyone in this world. I love all of his quotes. Thought I'd share a website of them. http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/v/vince_lombardi.html Heres his official website. http://www.vincelombardi.com/about/quotes.htm
I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum - the most powerful hand gun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question--Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk!
"What you have just said, is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response, were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having to listen to it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul."
this is one everyone can apply and use in the lifes: Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results. -Anon.
"Good men sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -George Orwell "No matter where you go you are what you are player. And you can try to change but that's just the top layer. Man you was who you was before you got here. Only God can judge me so I'm gone. Either love me or leave me alone." - Jay-Z "I've always been ambitious. I don't believe ambition is a learned behavior. I believe it is a part of a person's character. I'll always continue to try and move to the next level. I know I will die chasing something." - 50 cent "So in the end, was it worth it? Jesus Christ. How irreparably changed my life has become. It's always the last days of summer and I've been left out in the cold with no door to get back in. I'll grant you I've had more than my share of poignant moments. Life passes most people by when they're busy making grand plans for it. Throughout my lifetime I've left pieces of my heart here and there. And now, there's almost barely enough to stay alive. But I force a smile, knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent. There are no more white horses or pretty ladies at my door." - George Jung "Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again, but life goes on." - Blow "It's not about how hard you can hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." - Rocky "Hope is a good thing, maybe the best thing. And no good thing ever dies." - Shawshank
I have so many to choose from, it really depends on the day. I came across this passage in Rousseau On Social Contract the other day and it's stuck with me: Thanks to laziness and money, they finally have soldiers to enslave the homeland and representatives to sell it.
Fear not an army of lions led by a sheep, fear an army of sheep led by a lion! ~ Alexander the Great of Macidonia
" He was talkin trash to me. I stepped in the right and I two stepped that kid" - Floyd Mayweather. Just said it right now on ESPN lol.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move. Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws All by Douglas Adams.
Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege. -Unknown The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it. - Bertrand Russell Don't you wish there were a knob on the TV to turn up the intelligence? There's one marked 'Brightness,' but it doesn't work. - Gallagher
Lol. Why dont you just keep posting them? Unless you dont have the time, they are all good quotes. Others will post ............eventually.
I have several my self, Thats why I am pacing myself. There is no greater gift a man can give then to lay down his life for another. ~ UKN
For those of you at work right now The slave is sold once and for all; the proletarian must sell himself daily and hourly. - Marx
"Church, women are like Voltron. The more you can hook-up, the better it gets." "there is a very fine line between not listening, and not caring... I'd like to think that I walk that line every day of my life..."
Churchill was always my guy: "If you are going through hell, keep going." "I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly." (Said after a woman accused him of being drunk at a function) He is up there with one of the wittiest men alive (and brilliant)
I can't pretend a stranger Is a long-awaited friend One likes to believe in the freedom of music But glittering prizes and endless compromises Shatter the illusion of integrity Big money goes around the world Big money underground Big money got a mighty voice Big money make no sound Big money pull a million strings Big money hold the prize Big money weave a mighty web Big money draw the flies All by Neil Peart of RUSH
