    I thought this was a good thread idea, so I shall borrow it from the old forums. Post some of your favorite quotations, wherever they are from, whoever said them.

    "Dreams are real while they last. Can we say more of life?" -Henry Havelock Ellis

    "When you're taught to love everyone, to love your enemies, what value does that place on love?"-Marilyn Manson

    "Ambition is a tricky thing; it's like riding a unicycle over a dental floss tight rope over a wilderness of razor blades. [...] Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps. See, around here our ambition throws a non-perishable food item in the donation bin at Christmas, and then pats itself on the fucking back because it thinks it's done something decent. "- Matthew Good,
    21st Century Living

    "For as little as 16 cents a day you could help someone less fortunate than yourself look better....help us fight for a better looking, less intelligible future." -Matthew Good. This is from the video for his song 'The Future Is X-Rated', back during his edgier, sardonic days.

    "Sometimes you don't sleep right. Sometimes you pace around battling three hour long panic attacks trying to calm yourself down. You talk to yourself in that little voice of yours, cracking jokes, making it seem silly. Everything gets blurry and eventually your hands stop wringing because they hurt, you've just noticed. You collapse on to the couch and sit there, inhaling and exhaling. The most primary of functions. And then you fall asleep. Tomorrow night you get to do it all over again." Matthew Good describing symptoms of bipolarity which he suffers from. It's pretty damn accurate.

    "I don't need you to like my book. I just need you to buy it." You guessed it, on promoting his book (which is fantastic) 'At Last There Is Nothing Left To Say'

    And finally, this hilarious little conversation:

    "It's now very common to hear people say "I'm rather offended by that." As if that gives them certain rights; it's actually nothing more...it's simply a whine. It's no more than a whine. "I find that offensive," it has no meaning, it has no purpose, it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. "I am offended by that," well so fucking what?"-Stephen Fry

    "Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance roughly ninety two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue-green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea." - Douglas Adams, The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy.

    The unspoken goal of exploration is to make the entire planet completely boring. Life was at its most interesting back when we still thought grass huts were a bit hoity-toity and when there could have been dragons made of raisin bread over the next hill for all we knew. Nowadays, everything's mapped out, and we've even spent enough time on the moon and the very bottom of the ocean to know that firstly, there aren't any dragons there either, and secondly, we're definitely not in a hurry to go back and double-check. Now it's only the depths of space that remain unexplored and un-boring, plenty of grey area where any number of interstellar sparkle dragons could be hiding. – Ben 'Yahtzee' Croshaw

    "It's safe enough! What do you want to do? Live forever?" - James from Team Rocket

    "I pitted them against each other, but not until they set aside their differences did I see the power they all shared deep inside. I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant; it is what you choose to do with the gift of life that determines who you are." - Mewtwo

    "Humans may have created me, but they will never enslave me! This cannot be my destiny!" - Mewtwo

    Yeah... They're all Pokémon... Sue me. :/

    "You know the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They don't alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit their views. Which can be uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering."
