Wink good qoutes

well lets hear some good qoutes. they can be any kind of qoutes as long as they are appropriate.

hears a few:it is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

it only takes one voice to start a revolution.
-thorin

i do not go where the path leads. i instead create my own path... and leave a trail.

i would rather be a failure at what i love that a success at what i hate.

people too weak to follow their own dreams, will always find a way to discourage yours.

conformity is the disease... rebellion is the cure.

That's hanging over my desk right now; there's a whole lot of good Twain quotes.

*Some of my favorite movie quotes:

" I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living or get busy dying."- The Shawshank Redemption

"You know, we just don't recognize the most significant moments of our lives while they're happening. I thought, well, they'll be other days. I didn't realize that was the only day." -Field of Dreams


*Some fun "Homer-isms":

"It's about time trees were good for something; instead of just standing there like jerks!"

"Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try."

"Me lose brain? Uh oh."

"Weaseling out of things is important to learn! It's what separates us from the animals -except the weasel."

“The more steps we take forward, the longer we see the path lies ahead”

“A man's lie is like, ‘l was at Tony's house’…A women's lie is like, '’it's your baby.’” -Chris Rock

<O

my favorite Homer quotes:

“Here's to alcohol: The source of, and answer to, all of life's problems.”
“I hope I didn't brain my damage.”
“I am so smart; I am so smart, ‘s,’ ‘m,’ ‘r,’ ‘t’... I mean ‘s,’ ‘m,’ ‘A,’ ‘r,’ ‘t.’”

Despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, I have not been able to answer... the great question that has never been answered: what does a woman want?

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

than to open it and remove all doubt.

Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony. -Matrix

Good, huh? It's good for two things: degreasing engines and killing brain cells. -Matrix

Oooh, they got the internet on computers now

"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young." -- Henry Ford

Homer: "OK brain, I don't like you, and you don't like me... let's just get through this thing and I'll get back to killing you slowly...with beer!"

If like me, you need to reconcile these two thoughts just keep in mind that alcohol kills brain cells sure, but it's the weak ones that go first.

I love this one, but I always get it mixed up somewhere, so I copied and pasted it.

When you want genuine music--music that will come right home to you like a bad quarter, suffuse your system like strychnine whisky, go right through you like Brandreth's pills, ramify your whole constitution like the measles, and break out on your hide like the pin-feather pimples on a picked goose,--when you want all this, just smash your piano, and invoke the glory-beaming banjo!
> ~Mark Twain - "Enthusiastic Eloquence," San Francisco Dramatic Chronicle, 6/23/1865

My Dad always quotes from Shakespeare's "Julius Ceasar"
I want to have about me fat, slick-headed men. Cassius(I think) has a lean and hungry look. Such men are dangerous.
