It is said that words are the tools of the great, and there are some good things that have been said. Post anything that has been said that you like. Could be funny, serious, scary, thoughtful--anything. Can be one sentance short, or paragraphs long (if you're willing to type that). Can come from any source. Can even be in another language, so long as you translate >:3

The original thread had some pretty nice quotes during its time.

I'll start out with one of my personal favorites:

"Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer, and that means I solve problems. Not problems like "what is beauty?", because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosphy. I solve practical problems! For instance: How am I gonna stop some big, mean, mother-humper from tearing me a structurally superflous new behind? The answer: Use a gun, and if that don't work,
Use more gun!"
-Engineer, Meet the Engineer, Team Fortress 2

A day without a nap is a day wasted.  -- A friend of mine.

If you let everyone else guide your thoughts, why have any of your own?  -- Unknown

So how about we skip the part where you are pretending to be interested in what I'm saying, and I'm pretending I'm not two seconds away from smashing the stupid out of your skull! Ok?  -- Abel, DMFA

Mr. Madison, what you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. -- Billy Madison

As soft as a marshmellow and twice as tasty...  -- Janus Whitefurr

I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or your heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do, you might just as well turn over to me, and I will be able to do them quickly, correctly. I am easily managed; you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done, and after a few lessons I will do it automatically. I am the servant of all great men. And, alas, of all failures as well. Those who are great, I have made great. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine. Plus, the intelligence of man. You may run me for profit, or run me for ruin; it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me and I will put the world at your feet. Be easy with me, and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am Habit.  -- Unknown

"But it was so artistically done" Grand Admiral Thrawn.

"Precisely. And the more they deny it, the more the Romulans will think that they are guilty because it is exactly what they would have done in their place. That's why you came to me. Isn't it, Captain? Because you knew I could do those things that you weren't capable of doing. Well, it worked. And you'll get what you want: a war between the Romulans and the Dominion. And if your conscience is bothering you, you should soothe it with the knowledge that you may have just saved the entire Alpha Quadrant. And in the end all it cost was the life of one Romulan senator, one criminal, and the self-respect of one Starfleet officer. I don't know about you, but I'd call that a bargain. " Elim Garak

"A NAME IS A CLOAK OF LETTERS THROWN ABOUT A MAN. IT MEANS NOTHING" The Transcendant One.

"'If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight!' Sun Tzu said that, and I would think he knew a little bit more about fighting than you do, because he invented it. And then he perfected it so that nobody could best him in the ring of honor. Then he used all his fight money to buy two of every animal and he herded them onto a boat, where he beat the crap out of them. And from that day on whenever two or more animals are together in one place it's called a zoo!"

"With one part of my mind I thought of the British Raj as an unbreakable tyranny, as something clamped down, in saecula saeculorum, upon the will of prostrate peoples; with another part I thought that the greatest joy in the world would be to drive a bayonet into a Buddhist priest's guts. Feelings like these are the normal by-products of imperialism; ask any Anglo-Indian official, if you can catch him off duty."
