what are some of your favorite quotes?

[BOBS DAD]

My sister gave this one to me when I was a senior in High School.
Go Forth like a Flame and all in your path will be consumed.

And this one I got in an email, and I'm trying hard to RETHINK - and RE-LIVE it... and follow it... especially recently......

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.
And
Psalms 23 always speaks to me....

I like those...

A guy (I didn't catch the name) is apparently considering a run for the Presidency. He is a Republican I think... and he is taking the position of an everyday citizen. He wants everyone to know that the main difference between himself and his would be competition is wealth. He states that he had nothing and has worked his way up to where he's at, and he says of the others...

"they were born on third base and they go around telling folks they 'hit a triple'"!!!

I really thought that was clever!

[Jadapit]

I'm not sure who said this, but I really like it!

"Life is a work of art, designed by the one who lives it."

"We must be the change we want to see in the world"

[Sevaede]

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." - Mahatma Gandhi

[Kalei]

hmm...I've known lots of quotes I like and can't bring them all to my head right now, but all the ones that have been listed so far are so great. I guess I like these ones too:

"Better to ask forgiveness than permission" --haha a good way to get yourself into trouble

"Three parts Brave, one part fool."

"Live life to the fullest"

...oh man right now I can't remember any more.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”

Mahatma Gandhi

[dogzr#1]

That was also my favorite quote, Michelle. I mean, just because it came out in PotC but also because it has a good meaning behind it.

Another favorite quote of mine is the one in my signature.
"The only creatures evolved enough to convey true love are dogs and infants" ~Johnny Depp

[Chilli]

As displayed in my signature:

"Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight."
- Albert Swhweitzer

[Alysser]

"Life is not measured by the number of breathes we take, but by the moments that take our breathe away."

I saw this one in a travel magazine, with a picture of a beautiful island, and I will NEVER forget it.

[captain]

"Do not judge your worth by what others think of you"

"Life is too short for regrets. Everything you do or have done, you did for a reason. Face that, and move on"

Nice thread to start!!

"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man." - Mark Twain

And another from Mr. Twain: "The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot."

[cocker_luva]

heres a quote from the movie "Dirty Love" that is my absolute favorite!!

"HERE'S TO THE MEN THAT WE LOVE. HERE'S TO THE MEN THAT LOVE US. BUT THE MEN THAT WE LOVE WILL NEVER LOVE US, SO F*CK ALL YOU MEN. HERE'S TO US!!!"

[DJFyrewolf36]

Watch your thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions.
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your habits, they become character.
Watch your character, they become destiny.

This is totally one of my favorites too, a philosophy I try very much to live by.

Another favorite is one I came up with a long time ago

"One who is perfect is nothing at all. We strive for perfection, therefore we strive for extinction"

And of course my siggy

[CathyBogart]

"Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it is too dark to read." -Groucho Marx

[Lobodeb]

This one is on my myspace profile, but I'm not sure who said it, "The most dangerous place in the world is between a mother and her child."

And in reference to long distance relationships (again, don't know who said it)
"Distance can ignite a strong flame and extinguish a weak one."
