Posted 24 Jan 2007 I got a hundred of them (well maybe not, but a lot). Here are some more: "Always be wary of any helpful item that weighs less than its operating manual." - Terry Pratchett "A marriage is always made up of two people who are prepared to swear that only the other one snores." - Terry Pratchett "The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it." - Terry Pratchett "I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it." - Terry Pratchett "God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time." - Terry Pratchett "Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." - Terry Pratchett "In the begining there was nothing, and it exploded." - Terry Pratchett, on the big bang theory "An education was a bit like a communicable sexual disease. It made you unsuitable for a lot of jobs and then you had the urge to pass it on." - Terry Pratchett "Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time." - Terry Pratchett "Your life does flash before your eyes when you die, it is called living." - Terry Pratchett "For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, ( eat, © run away from, and (d) rocks." - Terry Pratchett "Gods like atheists, it gives them something to aim for" - Terry Pratchett "The consensus seemed to be that if really large numbers of men were sent to storm the mountain, then enough might survive the rocks to take the citadel. This is essentially the basis of all military thinking." - Terry Pratchett "What our ancestors would really be thinking, if they were alive today, is: 'Why is it so dark in here?'" - Terry Pratchett "Tourist, Rincewind decided, meant 'idiot'." - Terry Pratchett As you can see, I like Terry Pratchett quotes, he is very funny, and has some amazing insights into life.

Posted 25 Jan 2007 All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand. The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met. OK, so what's the speed of dark? How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film. Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark. Many people quit looking for work when they find a job. I intend to live forever - so far, so good. Join the Army, meet interesting people, kill them. If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. Dancing is a perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire. When I'm not in my right mind, my left mind gets pretty crowded. Boycott shampoo! Demand the REAL poo! Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk? What happens if you get scared half to death twice? I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out. I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. Why do psychics have to ask you for your name? If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you. A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism. The colder the X-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it. The hardness of the butter is proportional to the softness of the bread. The severity of the itch is proportional to the reach. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research. You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard. Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7th of your life. The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up. (this is one of my long time favorites) A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before. Change is inevitable....except from vending machines. A fool and his money are soon partying. Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow. If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments. Drugs may lead to nowhere, but at least it's the scenic route. I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize. Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed of checks. Borrow money from pessimists-they don't expect it back. Half the people you know are below average. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot. A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good.

Posted 16 Feb 2007 most of my favorite quotes are lines from songs, and most are kind of depressing. -take my hand and lead me to salvation - take my love, for love is everlasting (les miserables - finale) -in the rain the pavement shines like silver, all the lights are misty in the river - in the darkness, the trees are full of starlight and all I see is him and me forever and forever (les miserables - on my own) -I dreamed a dream in time gone by, when hope was high and life worth living - I dreamed that love would never die, I dreamed that god would be forgiving (les miserables - fantine's death) -you didn't hurt me, nothing can hurt me...you didn't hurt me, nothing can stop me now (nine inch nails - ruiner, I think) -paradise comes at a price that I am not prepared to pay (muse - megalomania) -I've got your memory - or has it got me? (patsy cline - she's got you) and there's my sig, the bridge is crossed so stand and watch it burn, which is from phantom of the opera. oh I love it when they belt out that line. you don't get as much out of the quotes without the context of the full song Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
