Hi all,
I was wondering what your favourite quote(s) are?

I recently heard the following from one of my clients:

"The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it"

which I think is a pretty awesome quote

How about you; do you have any favourite quotes?

      In the movie "Aliens," there's an exchange between a smart-mouthed guy (Private Hudson) and a small but bad-ass woman (Private Vasquez), that goes like this:

      Hudson: "Hey, Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
      Vasquez: "No. Have you?"

      Best sarcastic rejoinder ever. Gotta qualify as one of my favorite quotes.

        Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures Through The Looking Glass.

        And it's six impossible things:

        "I can't believe that!" said Alice.

        "Can't you?" the queen said in a pitying tone. "Try again, draw a long breath, and shut your eyes."

        Alice laughed. "There's no use trying," she said. "One can't believe impossible things."

        "I dare say you haven't had much practice," said the queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

        Trivia... Jenette Goldstein, the actress who played Vasquez, initially tried out for the part thinking it was about illegal aliens crossing the Mexican border. She had no idea what the movie was about, and was confused about all the military uniforms in the waiting room. The script was later amended to make reference to this, as an inside joke.

        You can get anything you want if you help enough other people get what they want.
        Losers fail and quit. Winners fail until they succeed.
        Indecision is worse than the wrong decision. You can fix a wrong decision, you can't fix indecision.

    You only lose energy when life becomes dull in your mind. Your mind gets bored and therefore tired of doing nothing. Get interested in something! Get absolutely enthralled in something! Get out of yourself! Be somebody! Do something. The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have. --Norman Vincent Peale

    This quotes means that don't put yourself in a box. Always think BIG.

    * The fact is that the average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. He is not actually happy when free; he is uncomfortable, a bit alarmed, and intolerably lonely. Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. It is the exclusive possession of a small and disreputable minority, like knowledge, courage and honor. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty — and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies. H.L. Mencken
    o Baltimore Evening Sun (12 February 1923)

    * Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -H.L. Mencken
    o Ch. 6, "The New Poetry Movement"

    When I was sixteen I won a great victory. I felt in that moment that I should live to be one hundred, now I know I shall not see thirty. None of us know our end really, or what hand will guide us there. A King may move a man, a father may claim a son. That man can also move himself. And only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played, or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone. Even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power. When you stand before God, you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that. -King Baldwin IV (Kingdom of Heaven)

    I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of God. I've seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What God desires is here [points to Balian's head] and here [points to Balian's heart] and what you decide to do every day will make you a good man...or not. -Hospitaller (Kingdom of Heaven)

    Your "best"! Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and **** the prom queen. -John Mason (The Rock)
