Quotes!! If Ioan likes them THAT much...
What is (are) your favorite quote(s)? Sometimes people say something that changes your life. Makes you think. Hurts you. Lifts you up. Made you laugh outloud. Becomes a rule you live by. Chose one or two and share it. Post more often if you want, but try to chose something that not just copied out of book. The ones in my signature are eye-openers for me, because I discovered they are SO true. Edited: because I changed my signature: But those two quotes were: "Never under-estimate your enemy, never over-estimate your ally" Major Edrington to Horatio Hornblower. "A man has to accept responsability for his actions. He doesn't second-guess the choices he makes. He lives with them every day." Captain Lee Adama - Battlestar Galactica. The one I try to live by: "Life is a celebration." (song by Rick Springfield)

Well, I can't think of a quote at the moment, but both Syviane's and Kaitlyn's avatars are so darn cute! Nino wants to join 'em. Anyhow, don't mind me, I'm tired. I did just think of one that has always worked for me: When in doubt, don't. :mrgreen:

Love it Hil, I'm going to use that from now on. Just found one then in a hunt for argumentation quotes, it's a good one and I like it: “When an argument flares up, the wise man quenches it with silence” Guess I'm not the wise man then. LOL. Oh, and thanks Hil for saying my av is cute, I agree, Sylviane's is really cute!

"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer" I'd heard it in a Godfather/gangster type movie once. From what I gather, its a way to keep close tabs on everyone.

I have two from a Classics course I took. The first I don't have the source for, but I love the truth of it. "There is no history except rewritten history." "Decent people are capable of indecent acts." credited to Jack Lemmon What it means to me "Take everything with a grain of salt".

I always liked this one from Moulin Rouge The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return. erica

I do a lot of non-profit fundraising and the one that always rings true for me is "You can't get your faced slapped if you don't ask"

My Granny had a ton of 'sayings'. don't know where any of them came from, but there's one to fit any situation. Like "People who listen at keyholes hear what they least want to hear." (that's for you, Miss Evans! Okay, giving myself a :tsk tsk: and "They're more to be pitied than scolded!" :wink:

I love your Greenpeace quote Kaitlyn. Alright, so I could list a ton, but I culled the list to four: Illusion is the first of all pleasures. Oscar Wilde (any quote by Oscar Wilde could make my list, actually) You must be the change you want to see in the world. Mahatma Gandhi Judge of a man by his questions rather than by his answers. Voltaire A witty saying proves nothing. Voltaire

Best Friends are the siblings God forgot to give us. Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you erica

One of my favourites has to be "The future belongs to those that believe in the beauty of their dreams" I'm not quite sure where it's from but I will always believe it. Keep beliving in your dreams and they will one day come true.

My dad's favorite quote I think was from Truman: "Speak softly and carry a big stick." My mom's frequent quote (don't know who first said it): "If you cry over nothing, God will give you something to cry about"
