    Do you have a favorite quote? It can be from a real person, a song, or a fictional character, it can be from anyone or anything.

    My favorite quote is from the Cheshire Cat. At one point it says "Imaginarion is the only weapon in the war against reality." To me (and this may not be exactly what it means but this is what it means to me,) it means it's good to have an imagination to escape from reality every once in a while.

    That's a great quote @[member="Shadow Absol"]! I have a few favourite quotes.

    - Mewtwo's quote! I love it a lot because it means that however you're born, it doesn't decide the person you are. What can only decide who you are is what you do with your life.

    - "Man does not cease to play because he grows old. He grows old because he ceases to play." - George Bernard Shaw

    - "Animals are my friends, and I don't eat my friends" - George Bernard Shaw

    - "Teaching your child not to step on a caterpillar is just as important to the child as it is to the caterpillar." - Bradley Millara

    - "If a robin redbreast in a cage, puts all Heaven in a rage, How feels Heaven when the billionth battery hen dies?" - Spike Milligen

    - "It's man's sympathy with all creatures that first makes him truly a man" Dr. Albert Schweitzer.

    - "Don't be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic."

    @[member="✯Ho-OhLugia✯"] The Mewtwo quote is a personal favorite of mine, I love it.

    I don't have any other quotes by other people that come to my mind right now, so I'll share a couple of my own quotes:

    "Practice does not make perfect, but it makes whatever you are doing a hell of a lot easier"

    "Embrace the dank, and call them memes"

    "If something offends you, then it isn't your job to let the rest of the world know about it"

    Some of my quotes don't fit my generally "bubbly" personality, but I think that they're important regardless.

    Indeed it is, @[member="Wizard"]! Pokémon have very important quotes!

    Another one is that Meowth quote. It's really inspirational, and I believe a lot of people need to learn from this quote.

    Quotes are amazing. It really puts into perspective that what we say can really make a difference on the way the world is carried.

    One of my favorite quotes is by Dalai Lama:
    "It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come."

    I love the message that to be happy in the long run, you need to spread happiness as much as possible. Spreading goodwill among others really makes the world go around. It's really inspired me to keep a good attitude, even if the days get rough.

    My favorite quotes:

    ""

    Okay joking aside, I'd have to say my favorite quote to live by is "Negativity isn't worth your time. Life is too short to dwell on things you cannot control or emotions that drain you. Focus on what is in front of you and you're bound to succeed." My mother told me this as I was having emotional stress, and it really is a truth. It takes time to appreciate, yet the time is worth the outcome.


    @[member="LostSpirit"], your Dalai Lama quote is another favorite of mine. I often find that Buddhist spiritual leaders are far wiser than given credit for, and more appreciation should be aimed at them and their wisdom and kindness.

    I have a few that I forgot to add:

    "We have more to learn from animals than they have to learn from us"

    "Animals are the best people"

    Think mine has to be "Speak of the devil and thought shall come" mostly cause of how true it has stayed to my life!
