All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Eibhlin · 02-12-2007, 11:15 PM

le sigh, alas, i think I had started a wonderful quotes thread back on Ye Olde Forrume...but as Marc so eloquently puts it, it went tits up...so

thanks for starting a new one!

Well, I don't read german philosophy much, but I do like alot of random song quotes

"Watch out for the ricochet, 'cause it all comes back" -Ricochet, Paranoid Social Club- makes me think before I speak...sometimes

I am too tired to think of interesting intellectual stuff so I may just revert to immaturity...

ItBeThatWay27 · 02-13-2007, 01:45 AM

HAHA "tits up" damn that's one of my most favorite expressions Marc haha

"The hardest thing in this world is to live in it"

"All you want to do is something good, so get ready to be ridiculed and misunderstood"
-Aimee Mann

"Belief is a beautiful armor, but makes for the heaviest sword. Like punching underwater, you never can hit who you're trying for."

People should not be afraid of their government, governments should be afraid of their people

V for Vendetta

never.alone · 02-13-2007, 02:15 AM

omg! v for vendetta has some of the best quotes!!

example: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea and ideas are bulletproof

I really like that Amiee Mann quote!! It really is the truth!

and of course i love the john mayer quote..i have oodles of favorites from his songs...

sometimes even to live is an act of courage Seneca

ItBeThatWay27 · 02-13-2007, 02:41 AM

last_dance_rodeo · 02-13-2007, 03:14 AM

yes she does, it's very cool how she has brought us all together

ItBeThatWay27 · 02-13-2007, 12:20 PM

ok I could spout out Aimee Mann quotes all day long...

"Kicking is hard, but the bottom's harder"

"This is how it goes
One more failure to connect
With so many how could I object
And you, what on earth did you expect
Well I can't tell you baby
When this is how it goes"

"Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy"

Veilingmeat · 02-13-2007, 05:57 PM

This Aimee Mann! cant say, i'v ever heard of this lass ever before, seems an intelligent lady with some Wise quotes and remarks

How true Daddy's words were when he said: "all children must look after their own upbringing". Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.
Anne Frank
For some reason i find Ann Franks wise words very moving, always puts a lump in my throat, one very intelligent little girl...her diaries of which i have read, was the wisest and most moving ever...a voice for six million people.

ItBeThatWay27 · 02-13-2007, 06:16 PM

I really like that quote Marc, I've never really heard many Anne Frank quotes before.

This is a quote I heard on the radio from some caller, they were doing a show on quotes I think or something in that category. The girl who called in said her father would always say this, applying to problems in life:
"Unless someone died, then it can be fixed"

Eibhlin · 02-13-2007, 07:37 PM

Hmm, you know I always mean to read the diaries of Anne Frank, and then I always forget. I will have to do that. To be able to overcome all that she did is just incredible!

Why do I always have a good quote in my mind, then by the time I get to the forum, it is gone?
