Here's a pretty good one.

"The truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with caution." ~Albus Dumbledore

People want honesty out of eachother. When you tell someone the truth, they're pleased with you. You tell that very same person the truth sometime later down the road, they want to kick your teeth in. Knowing the truth can bring joy and knowlede to people, but the truth can also hurt.

"Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing." ~Benjamin Franklin

Well said, Ben! ^_^

Do something! Write something that will inspire people, provoke people to think about new things or to see life from a new perspective. If you can't write something, then create it or find yourself the means to perform an action worthy of being written about. Something that will make history. How great would that be? To die knowing that you did something to make the world remember the name of ___________________?

Here's a quote my teachers have told me:
"Take the opportunities you have right now before there out of your reach"

I like this set of quotes i even put them in my profile page ... they can be very useful and funny ...

Ah, I do like my quotes! I've actually collected a pretty good list of them, from a similar topic on another forum. I might share some of them, along with a few of my own & others I've picked up. Hurray for Word documents...

I have bested horrors that chill with a gaze and tempt unreasoning terror�
What right have you to call me heretic and blasphemer, you who have not heard the whisper of dark gods in your ear?

These 2 are from a game I enjoy playing. Pretty much self explanatory. First is good for a chuckle, while both could be considered a bit of a defiant thing.

Life's like a boat. It's fun to push people over the edge!

Kinda made that up myself. I saw a line saying "Life's like a boat", but that's all I saw. I just blurted out the rest, & it kinda stuck.

Well, I think that might do for now. I'll let a few others slip some in before I throw more your way...

I have two.

"I reject your reality and substitute my own." by Adam Savage.

Personally, i prefer trying to see things in a different light. if some people see, say, a champagne glass (cliched i know) i see the two faces talking. What i see as a harsh reality, i reject and try to interpret the same situation in my own way.
