Just thought I'd start a thread where people can put their favourite quotes/song lyrics/poems. It can be inspirational, sad, angry, etc.
So, I'll start with a few of my favourite quotes.
too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
- Leo Buscaglia
If youre going through hell, keep going.
-Winston Churchill
the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars...
- Jack Kerouac
Anyone else care to join in? =)

Quotes by People::
“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. i'll always be with you.” - Winnie the Pooh.
"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” - Helen Keller
“Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.” - Helen Keller
Quotes I've Heard::
I'm not short... I'm unusually not tall!
I'm FINE.... ******** Up, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional. Just FINE.
You think I'm tough... But I just never let you see me cry.
And she's so scared to get close to anyone, Because everyone who ever said I'll be there, left.
Dare to be Different
Sticks and stones may break my bones... But words can shatter my soul.
Praying wont solve a thing
A Shot to kill the pain, A pill to drain the shame, a purge to stop the gain, a cut to break the vein, a smoke to ease the grave, a drink to win the game... An addictions an addiction because it always hurts the same.
A true friend is someone who knows all your secrets and loves you just the same.
A best friend is the one who can look at you with the biggest smile on your face, and know something is wrong.
I will post more later as I think of them... I love quotes. (:

Trainspotting
"In a thousand years, there will be no men and women, just wankers, and that's fine by me. "
"The downside of coming off junk was I knew I would need to mix with my friends again in a state of full consciousness. It was awful. They reminded me so much of myself, I could hardly bear to look at them."
"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a ******** big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of ******** fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the ******** you are on Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing ******** junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, ******** up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin? "
I'll be posting more probably, cause I love quotes =P

My favorite quote is, "Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."

I love quotes - I have files full of quotes from TV, quotes from movies, quotes from lyrics, random quotes...
One of my absolute favourites, that I think is quite appropriate for people in this guild, is this one by Barbara Bloom:
When the Japanese mend broken objects, they aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold. They believe that when something’s suffered damage and has a history it becomes more beautiful.
A couple more I like, from the movies:
Not a dog. Not a wolf. All he knows is what he's not. If only he would realize what he is. (Boris: Balto)
How am I supposed to recover when I don't even understand my disease? (Susanna: Girl, Interrupted)
