Nice! One of my favorite quotes has always been "the beauty of things must be that they end." - kerouac

It's better to have loved and lost than to...never...have loved at all. :heart:

Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled.

Some quotes I also like that I can't source:
They sent my Census form back! AGAIN !!! In response to the question: “Do you have any dependents?" I replied - 12 million ore more illegal immigrants; 3 million crack heads, 42 million unemployable people; 2 million people in over 243 prisons; and 535 more in the US House and Senate. Apparently, this was NOT the answer that they wanted.

"My dog is an Animal"
He takes what other people have earned and chews it up. He sleeps when he wants to, and he breeds every chance he gets. He tears up his own yard when he feels like it. He depends on me for his shelter. He depends on me to give him food. He depends on me to pay for his health care. He is completely loyal, and he attacks on command.
At this time I would like to rephrase my first statement:
"My dog is a Liberal"

"If you always do what you always did, You will always get what you always got"

I like "Feed your head" from "White Rabbit" by Grace Slick. The song is about using drugs, but when she says "feed your head' she means we should do other things to empower our brains besides doing drugs/

"Open your mind before your mouth."
-Motionless In White-
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
-Dr. Seuss-
"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are."
-Kurt Cobain-
"Without music, life would be a mistake"
-Friedrich Nietzsche -
I have MANY MANY more, but these are the first ones that came to mind. :)

I don't exactly have a quote, but i do like some proverbs:

"You reap what you sow"-Chinese Proverb

What goes around..........comes around!
Patience is a virtue!
Fool me once, shame on you, Fool me twice, shame on me!!

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter

"To quit drinking is the easiest thing I have ever done. I must have done it over a thousand times."
Albert Einstein
It means a lot more coming from him doesn't it.

"If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself." - Desiderata
"The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything." - Theodore Roosevelt
"To be upset over what you don't have is to waste what you do have." - Ken Keyes, Jr.

Martin Luther King Jr.
This is a very good quote I've never heard before! Definitely my favorite off all the listings on here.
I simply choose the quote " Imperfection is Perfection. "
Beauty is in individuality and unique build up. . . Seriously! Look at Lady Gaga! :bootyshake:

These are just a few I like:
The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless. -Rousseau
The 'future' has many names: for the weak it is 'unattainable', for the fearful it is 'unknown', for the brave it's 'an opportunity'. -Daniel Alves
Be a good listener, your ears will never get you in trouble. -Frank Tyger
The possibility that we may fail in the struggle should not deter us from supporting a cause we believe to be just. -Abraham Lincoln
As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities. -Voltaire
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because Law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. -Thomas Jefferson
The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. -Albert Einstein

"Letting go isn't about giving up. It's about accepting that there are things that cannot be." ~ Unknown
Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it.
Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.
-Martin Luther King Jr.
“Never worry about the size of your Christmas tree. In the eyes of children, they are all 30 feet tall.” --Larry Wilde
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

Give your stress wings and let it fly away. ~Terri Guillemets
