Your all time favorite quote is...?

[Kwaren]

These are my favorites

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable." - JFK


"You are the best. You are the worst. You are average. Your love is a part of you. You try to give it away because you cannot bear its radiance, but you cannot separate it from yourself. To understand your fellow humans, you must understand why you give them your love. You must realize that hate is but a crime-ridden subdivision of love. You must reclaim what you never lost. You must take leave of your sanity, and yet be fully responsible for your actions." -Gnarls Barkley

 

[Kortney]

The best quote of all time is:

"Morning! Oh, that? Shat myself! What's the pension scheme like?"

 

[FourEyedPandora]

"Oh my god, we're all going to die. Who's flying this thing?! Oh wait, that'd be me." - Wash from Firefly

 

[Fenreil]

-
-"You cannae drink tha' Wullie. Tha's Rat Poison."
"Weel tha's allright then, 'cause I'm nae a rat!"

Holy fuck, that's a quote from The Wee Free Men, isn't it? Anything those little buggers say is pure gold. I'm getting the feeling that your other ones are from other discworld stuff. Tell me, I must know.


I always forget these things when asked to recite them, so I'll just say one I recently encountered:
"Do you know what it is like to watch yourself die? ...It is FASCINATING!"

 

[Diazetate]

My plan was perfect but there was one thing I over looked. One factor I failed to calculate. He's a dumbass, and there's no accounting for dumbass...ness.

 

[OmegaXzors]

"The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of millions are statistics." - Joseph Stalin

I live by this quote because humanity is just that fucking stupid.

 

[RanD00M]

"And at the end of madness.OBLIVION!"

 

[Kassad86]

You know who's going to inherit the Earth? Arms dealers. Because everyone else is too busy killing each other. That's the secret to survival. Never go to war. Especially with yourself.

 

[Banana Phone Man]

"You gain friends with many actions and lose them with one"

I can't remember who it was by and I'm pretty sure I have changed it slightly but it has to be this one because it has a good meaning to it.

 

[Beacon]

"And, so the first Grey Wardens before us, we shall drink Darkspawn Blood and master our taint"
Duncan from Dragon Age

The immature side of my laughed for days

But for reals...it's the whole "What does Marcellus Wallace Look Like" speech

 

[neilsaccount]

I don't really have an all-time favourite quote. I could name about two hundred movie quotes I adore, as well as plenty from standup comedians.

I guess for the purposes of this thread, I would say:

"And the luge . . . what drunken German gynecologist invented that sport!? 'I want to dress like a sperm, shove an ice skate up my ass, and go balls-first down an ice chute! Ja, that would be fun!'"

Robin Williams

 

[sabbat]

I have no idea who said this, but it goes, "I may disagree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." Pretty much sums up who I am.

I've heared this before, but can't remember where either. Anyone got any ideas?

 

[Berethond]

"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
?Rose Walker

"To the world, you may be one person. To one person, you may be the world."

 

[sabbat]

Amy: I'm fine. It's just there's a whole world in here just like you said. It's all true. I thought, well I started to think that you were just like a madman with a box.

The Doctor: Amy Pond, there's something you better understand about me 'cause it's important and one day your life could depend on it: I am definitely a madman with a box.

Just about anything the 10th and 11th doctors say is solid gold. But this is my favourite:

"Because you're not the only ones to have come here, there has been so many. And one thing you've got to ask is what happened to them. Hello, I'm the Doctor. Basically... Run."

 

[Primus1985]

I thought I'd give this a spin. First one of my favs from The Doctor: "Who am I? Im the Doctor, and if your looking for a higher authority than that your are out of luck because it stops with me!"

And Lastly From Braveheart, why has no one thought of this..?

Williaam Wallace: Sons of Scotland hear me, I am William Wallace...

Random dude: William Wallace is 7 feet tall!

William: Aye so Ive heard, he kills english by the hundreds, and if he where he'd consume the english with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse.(lol) I am William Wallace, and I see a whole army of my countrymen here in the defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free meen, and free men you are. But what will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?

Random guy: Flee, the english are too many.

William: Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live, at least a while. But dying in your beds, many years from now. Would you you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance to come back to this field and tell our enemies: That you can take our lives but you can never take our freedom! Abrah ga Brah!

Stegosaurus: Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... "This Land.".
Allosaurus: I think we should call it "your grave!".
Stegosaurus: Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Allosaurus: Har har har! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die!
Wash: Oh GOD IN HEAVEN!

Firefly ROCKS, although I would have chosen this gem:

"Well, my days of taking you seriously have definately reached a middle."
Malcolm Reynolds. Firefly. Episode: Our Mrs Reynolds

 

[sabbat]

Just remembered:

"Because you're the only crazy thing in my crazy life that makes sense to me."
Buffy Summers talking to Angel in Buffy The Vampire Slayer. God, I miss that show.

 

[Outright Villainy]

Calvin and Hobbes

"The world isn't fair, Calvin."
"I know Dad, but why isn't it ever unfair in my favour?"

I'm learning real skills that I can apply throughout the rest of my life ... Procrastinating and rationalizing.

I'm not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information


Calvin : "Do you believe in the devil? You know, a supreme evil being dedicated to the temptation, corruption, and destruction of man?"
Hobbes : "I'm not sure that man needs the help."

Calvin : You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes : What mood is that?
Calvin : Last-minute panic.

Susie: You'd get a good grade without doing any work.
Calvin: So?
Susie: It's wrong to get rewards you haven't earned.
Calvin: I've never heard of anyone who couldn't live with that.

Hobbes : "What do you think is the secret to happiness? Is it money, power or fame?"
Calvin : "I'd choose money. If you have enough money, you can buy fame and power. That way you'r have it all and be really happy. Happiness is being famous for your financial ability to indulge in every kind of excess."
H : "I suppose thats *one* way to define it."
C : "The part I think I'd like best is crushing people who get in my way."

and a crapbunch more, but these are the best mix of poignancy and hilarity

For quoting Calvin and Hobbes, you sir, win. Forever. Well done!

I can't think of any of my favourite quotes (probably Dougalas adams or Calvin and hobbes related) so I'll just leave this gem here:
