My favorite quote is this one:

"Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth." - Theodor W. Adorno

I totally agree with him though.

[jezsiema 39]

"If my dream was true, then everything we know, everything we think we know is a lie. It means the world's about as solid and as reliable as a layer of scum on the top of a well of black water which goes down forever, and there are things in the depths that I don't even want to think about. It means that we're just dolls. We don't have a clue what's really going down, we just kid ourselves that we're in control of our lives while a paper's thickness away things that would drive us mad if we thought about them for too long play with us, and move us around from room to room, and put us away at night when they're tired, or bored." 

- from The Sandman, Neil Gaiman - 

 

Anything written by Neil Gaiman seems like Shakespeare to me

[Dsanders 5,742]

I have a huge collection of favorite quotes. So many beautiful words and sayings that I have really held close to my heart over the years. Some of these quotes have really inspired me and gave me motivation. Some of them have allowed me to look at life on deeper perspective. These been many quotes that have really just helped and encouraged me over the recent years.

 

I'll list the all my top favorites by category.

 

 

Change:

 

He who rejects change is the architect of decay.  The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery.  ~Harold Wilson

 

When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.  ~Victor Frankl

 

If you're in a bad situation, don't worry it'll change.  If you're in a good situation, don't worry it'll change.  ~John A. Simone, Sr.

 

Man's yesterday may ne'er be like his morrow;

Nought may endure but Mutability.
~Percy Bysshe Shelley, "Mutability"

 

Continuity gives us roots; change gives us branches, letting us stretch and grow and reach new heights.  ~Pauline R. Kezer

 

If you would attain to what you are not yet, you must always be displeased by what you are.  For where you are pleased with yourself there you have remained.  Keep adding, keep walking, keep advancing.  ~Saint Augustine

 

Every single thing changes and is changing always in this world.  Yet with the same light the moon goes on shining.  ~Saigyo

 

Hope:

 

Where hope would otherwise become hopelessness, it becomes faith.  ~Robert Brault

 

Once you choose hope, anything's possible.  ~Christopher Reeve

 

The road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination.  ~Marian Zimmer Bradley

 

Sanity may be madness but the maddest of all is to see life as it is and not as it should be.  ~Don Quixote

 

Love:

 

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.  ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

 

Love is a symbol of eternity.  It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.  ~Author Unknown

 

Love one another and you will be happy.  It's as simple and as difficult as that.  ~Michael Leunig

 

Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.  ~Robert Heinlein

 

Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.  ~Rose Franken

 

When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks.  ~Natalie Clifford Barney

 

You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.  ~Dr. Seuss

 

We picture love as heart-shaped because we do not know the shape of the soul.  ~Robert Brault

 

Love is like a friendship caught on fire.  In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering.  As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.  ~Bruce Lee

 

 

^Been a hopeless romantic all my life, and I'm proud of it. Don't judge me.

― Pseudonymous Bosch

"Welcome. Welcome to City 17. You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining urban centers. I thought so much of City 17 that I elected to establish my administration here, in the Citadel so thoughtfully provided by our benefactors. I have been proud to call City 17 my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through on your way to parts unknown - welcome to City 17. It's safer here. " -Wallace Breen  

 

"Bryan: I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Marko: [after a long pause] Good luck."

Applejack: ...No. I am gonna be attacked by a timberwolf!

"But yeah!" -chuggaconroy in practically every single gameplay video (at least the Okamiden videos I've watched so far)

 

Speaking of Okamiden, I've been playing Okami lately, and writing down all the quotes I could catch. I'll just list a few for now, there's too many!

 

"Too often, it is easy to forget that which we cannot see." -Bakugami

"Huh? Oh, I wasn't thinking about home or anything... No, really!" -Issun after they see Kaguya off

"I only half hope they don't take advantage of me!" -Issun about the Dragonian women

"I am blockhead! I guard this place so that all shall pass! Er, wait... make that, none shall pass!" -Blockheads

"You actually care about that half-baked prophet? That IS terrible!" -Issun to the Tao trooper in Waka's floating fortress

"Yeah, look at that foolish mug. You've got to be the dumbest-looking wolf I've ever seen! - And to stray into a place like this... You're not too bright, are ya, champ?" -Imps guarding the Moon Cave entrance

"What the...? It's none of your business how we smell! It's just that we don't like taking baths, that's all!" -reaction to a Canine Warrior who casually comments on Amaterasu's smell

"You needn't have come all this way for me to kill you. I would have found you and done so all the same." -Ninetails, pretty daring speech considering Amaterasu has achieved until then, but she also is the only other character who can use brush techniques (unless you count Shiranui, but he's Amaterasu 100 years ago, so)

"You must be very strong if you can cope with Issun." -Kai encouraging/complimenting Amaterasu (in front of Issun)

 

Issun is usually just hilariously perverted and foulmouthed, but he can be pretty inspiring too.

"Now cut that out! There's nothing I hate more than a crybaby. You were the one who left that dog in those dangerous ruins. So you gotta do whatever it takes to get the key and go help him!" -first encounter with Kokari

"The lack of a crucial element spells disaster for any masterpiece." -about Gekigami's statue missing an arrow in the bow

 

Waka is similarly wise, no matter what that Poncle says!

"You may have defeated Orochi 100 years ago, but one does not dwell on past glories." -disappointed in Amaterasu after the first battle against him

"Even the most solid defense has a tiny gap like the eye of a needle." -prophecy about the Emperor's Palace

A more recent edition of this magazine had an editorial of sorts where scientists complained that they spent more time trying to get grants than doing actual research. Worst thing that could've happened to the world of scientific research, and now it's reality.
