Re: Our Favorite Quotes


'It's not the despair: I can cope with the despair. It's the HOPE - that's what's killing me.'

A quote I heard on the radio today, from the film 'Clockwise' with John Cleese.

Thought it was very apt!

Re: Our Favorite Quotes


“Do you not know that there comes a midnight hour when every one has to throw off his mask? Do you believe that life will always let itself be mocked? Do you think you can slip away a little before midnight in order to avoid this? Or are you not terrified by it? I have seen men in real life who so long deceived others that at last their true nature could not reveal itself;... In every man there is something which to a certain degree prevents him from becoming perfectly transparent to himself; and this may be the case in so high a degree, he may be so inexplicably woven into relationships of life which extend far beyond himself that he almost cannot reveal himself. But he who cannot reveal himself cannot love, and he who cannot love is the most unhappy man of all.”

-Soren Kierkegaard

Somethings an N wouldn't understand.

“When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him; and you are torn by the thought of the unhappiness and night you cast, by the mere fact of living, in the hearts you encounter.” – Albert Camus

“I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him.” – Booker T. Washington

Couldn't resist a few of my own...

"The woman came from the man's rib, not his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal, under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved."

"The main goal of the future is to stop violence. The world is addicted to it."
-- Bill Cosby

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.
Charles Darwin

"Men...**** 'em...then send them home!"
That one is by ME!

"The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same."
