Rather than inviting you, on this occasion, to subscribe to another truth amongst the myriad already on offer; I instead invite you to cancel previous subscriptions - because many of them are likely to be fallacies.

It remains to be proved that society or any of its officers holds a commission from on high to avenge any supposed offence to Omnipotence, which is not also a wrong to our fellow-creatures. - John Stuart Mill, On Liberty


Thor: Humans are made of meat as well by the way!
I agree with your quote on fear though.
 
"There are two kinds of people in the world; those who divide everything into two groups and those who don't" -some guy in our geometry textbook (no kidding).
About the eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind: something I never understood, if I take your eye and you take mine, the whole world is half blind. If you give me an eye transplant, half of the world is blind (whereas otherwise all of it is half blind). But the quote doesn't really work and people say it a lot.
 
Edgar Allan Poe

And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain, Thrilled me — filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before.



And all my days are trances, And all my nightly dreams, Are where thy dark eye glances, And where thy footstep gleams — In what ethereal dances, By what eternal streams.



The object, Truth, or the satisfaction of the intellect, and the object, Passion, or the excitement of the heart, are, although attainable, to a certain extent, in poetry, far more readily attainable in prose.
 
yuri,

I take your eye,
you take my eye,
I'm pissed so I take your other eye,
you take my other eye,
I get really mad and take your wife's eye,
she takes my brother's eye, etc...
 
"Those who are faithful know only the trivial side of love: it is the faithless that know loves tragedies"

--- Oscar Wilde

"The only difference between a true love and a caprice is that a caprice lasts a little longer"

--- Oscar Wilde

"Ones destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things"

--- Henry Miller

These are my favorites...
 
This one's mine:


If you just sit there and let everyone think and do whatever they please -- for we are supposedly all equal -- then don't be surprised that idiots get to rule the world.
 
this one is from Kill Bill vol.2
"so bill, he shot you in the head? i would have been more nicer; i would have just cut your face up."
 
Confucius:

He who wishes to secure the good of others, has already secured his own.
 
"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time."

--T.S. Eliot

you bastard, that’s my favorite quote =].

I made this one up a while ago:
“an open mind is like an open hand, it can do many things. A closed mind, like a closed fist, is good for little more than destruction.”-Cato

Believe in me or you die in hell !

He had to say so, otherwise people here in the west wouldn't have believed in him. When he was in the east, as the Buddha, he didn't teach that. Hell is on earth.
 
Money frees you from doing things you dislike. Since I dislike
doing nearly everything, money is handy.

Groucho Marx
 
Stalin - "The death of one is a tragedy, the death of a million is just a statistic"
 
"...You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise...."

from Maya Angelou's poem "Still I Rise"
 
"Today you are burning a goose, but out of my ashes will be born a swan whom you will not burn."
Jan Huss

Well, it isn't that poetic, but he was about to burned at the stake as a heretic, so he did pretty well considering the situation he was in, and the angelou quote reminded me of this.
 
"Tragedy is when I cut my finger, comedy is when you walk into an open sewer hole and die" I forgot who thats by, but I stand by it anyway :bugeye: (I did the smiley because in reality, I'm quite insane and slightly meniacle)
