RestLess-BoTics Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 [font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]Reading quotes/sayings/proverbs provides me with a source of wisdom, happiness, and wonder. I find them extremely enjoyable... and hopefully, you will too! A small dose of enlightenment never hurts anyone! As of this moment, these 3 strike me in the most profound manner:[/font] [font="Georgia"]"Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward."[/font] ~[u]Victor Kiam[/u] [font="Georgia"]"A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him." [/font]~[u]David Brinkley[/u] [font="Georgia"]"Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.[/font]" ~[u]Lao Tzu[/u] [font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]Feel free to share ones that you've come to appreciate, along with your thoughts + reflections below.[/font] ▼ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headmaster Monokuma Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 There are quite a few I really like. I'll post these for now. "You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?" -Happy Mask Salesman "Whenever there is a meeting, a parting shall follow. But that parting needs not last forever. Whether a parting be forever or merely for a short while... that is up to you." -Happy Mask Salesman "When a body is used by another, it can be called nothing but a puppet. This one has served its purpose, and it is useless." -Majora's Mask "Can I ask... a question? Your friends... What kind of... people are they? I wonder... Do these people... think of you... as a friend?" -Child on the Moon I always thought of Majora's Mask as a deep game, but some of the quotes in it can really strike a chord.

Dr. Percival Cox Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 "You know, Bob, I've been thinking of all the times you manipulated me and toyed with me and I can't help but recall that children's fable about that race between the tortoise and the pain-in-the-ass-chief-of-medicine-that-everybody-hates. You see, Bob, the pain-in-the-ass-chief-of-medicine-that-everybody-hates kept running out in front of the tortoise and taunting him, but right at the end... oh, gosh I'm sure you remember what happened Bob, the tortoise bit clean through the Chief of Medicine's calf muscle, dragged him to the ground, where he and all the other turtles devoured him alive right there on the racetrack. It's a disturbing children's book, Bob, I know, but it's one that stuck with me nonetheless." "Okay, think of what little patience I have as... oh, I don't know... your virginity. You always thought it would be there, until that night Junior Year when you were feeling a little down about yourself and your pal Kevin, who just wanted to be friends... well, he dropped by, and he brought a copy of "About Last Night" and a four-pack of Bartles & Jaymes and woo hoo hoo, it was gone forever - just like my patience is now."

Brinolovania Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Normal people believe if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Darth Duelist Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 [i][b][size="5"]"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."[/size] [u]-Albert Einstein[/b][/i][/u] ^^I think the above quote is wonderful. If you don't know why he says WW4 will be fought with stones, here's the reason: [QUOTE]Because of him people had nuclear weapons in WWII. So he's expecting that WW III would be very devastating to human civilization. The survivors of WW III would be living in a different world. They'll basically start all over like the stone age. So the next war they'll go to would be fought with sticks & stones.[/QUOTE] I got the reason above from this link: [URL]http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080330182854AASV7LH[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
