Deep quotes you heard or made up?

“Ah yes, humans. Arrogant enough to believe they’re above animals, yet ignorant enough to the reality that they’re often so much less good and pure than said animals.”
 
"Virtue is a state of war; and to live in it, we have always to combat ourselves."

: Jean-Jacques Rousseau
 
"I've always thought that a leader should have a strong chin. He has no chin. And his vice president has several. This to me is not a good combination."
 
"A bone shared with a dog is not charity.
Charity is a bone shared with a dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog."


-Jack London
 
"You forgot the first rule of the fanatic, when you become obsessed with the enemy you become the enemy."
 
I have my own saying: “The easiest things in this world is to make big changes in your own life, the hardest things is to accept that very fact”
 
"Maybe we'd all be better off if there was no god. If god had never been invented. Then we wouldn't have to be anything. We wouldn't have to care."
 
"You should never hand someone a gun unless you're sure where they'll point it. Your mistake."
 
People seem to speak as if their beliefs are a choice.
Last I checked, when I attempted to begin believing that there could be a full moon at the time of a solar eclipse, my mental effort was futile.
One does not choose for their heart to beat; one does not choose for their stomach to digest; one does not choose what their ears hear.
Likewise, what one believes is not a conscious effort, but an automated process of the mind. A built-in fact-checker.
Your mind will not believe whatever you throw at it without good reason. Be grateful of this fact, for that is your mind being smarter than you are.
 
Are you trying to out-weird me, kid? 'Cause I get stranger things than you in my breakfast cereal
 
"Do you really want to know what's going on down there right now?"
"Yes."
"Boom. Boom boom boom. Boom boom. BOOM. Have a nice day."
 
"Now I'll tell you one thing. If the primates that we came from had known that someday politicians would have come out of the gene pool, they'da stayed up in the trees and written evolution off as a bad idea."
Particularly appropriate, seeing as today, the audiobook I've got playing is David Brin's "The Uplift War", and one of the characters (who you might call a sort of "super chimp" - been brain-boosted, genetically modified to have better hands, etc, etc) is, at this point in the tale, pondering something VERY MUCH like that...
 
I couldn't keep smiling, mommy.
It hurt after a while.
But now, I can smile forever.


-Jeffrey Woods
 
"You will see things no human has ever seen before. It will be fun. Assuming you're not vaporized, dissected, or otherwise not killed in an assortment of supremely horrible and painful ways. Exciting! Isn't it!?"
 
"RRRR it be driven' me nuts"
Black beard when he fucked his ships steering wheel presumingly
 
"You know, I've been stuck in this tin can for three years. I haven't taken a vacation. Ok, ok, it's my fault, I had the leave coming, I just didn't take it. I mean the pay sucks, I knew that when I signed on. NO BODY said I'd survive the job. Now I'll give you allll that, but where in my contract does it say that I have to eat the same food for breakfast every day for three years?"

"Paragraph 47, sub section 19, clause 9A. You can find it in the index under SUAEI."

"SUAEI?"

"Shut Up And Eat It."
 
"That which you manifest is before you" -Garth Stein The Art of Racing in the Rain
The book is a must read if you love dogs and automotive racing!
 
We can never find new ways of smothering others, we can just find new ways of killing ourselves individually.
