I remembered another I like:

 

"A leader is someone who can take a group of people to a place they don't think they can go." -Bob Eaton

TIE pilots shake at the sound of my name! ...Hey, wait! You're not supposed to be shaking with laughter!

 

Which way did they go? How many of them were there? How fast were they going? I must find them! I am their LEADER!

Some of my favs:

 

The ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit.

--W. Somerset Maugham

 

All men are brothers, like the seas throughout the world; So why do winds and waves clash so fiercely everywhere? -- Emperor Hirohito

 

If my theory of relativity is proven succesful, Germany will claim me as German and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world. If my theory should prove to be untrue, then France will say that I am a German, and Germany will say that I am a Jew. -- Albert Einstein

 

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. -- Albert Einstein

 

In order for three people to keep a secret, two must be dead.

-- Ben Franklin

History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance. And those who stand in our way will not watch at all.

"Earth is hell, and all men are divided in tormented souls and tormenting devils." Arthur Schoppenhauer

 

"You are too cultured to believe in God, are you not?" Rudyard Kipling

 

"2+2=5" George Orwell

 

"I am chaos. I am the substance from which your artists and scientists build rhythms. I am the spirit with which your children and clowns laugh in happy anarchy. I am chaos. I am alive, and I tell you that you are free." Eris

 

"A man that continiously envisioned the map of Hungary, wouldn't he be insane?" Jorge Luis Borges.

 

"No one is someone, a single immortal man is all men. Like Cornelius Agrippa, I am god, hero, philosopher, demon, and world—which is a long-winded way of saying that I am not.â€

"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world." Albert Einstein

 

Thank you I was trying to remember that quote. I actually read it in a bathroom once and loved it. But I could not remember it.

Ok, here's another one of my alltime favourite quotes:

 

"I'm Ashton Kutcher, I loooove Justin Timberlake" followed by some manic laughter.

 

Now it's anyone's guess, after which episode of Punk'd he said this :lol:

Ok, some more from one of my favourite movies, Pirates of the Carribean - curse of the black pearl

 

 

Elizabeth: "So that's it then ?

That's the secret, grand adventure of the infamous Jack Sparrow.

You spent three days lying on a beach drinking rum."

 

Jack: "Welcome to the Carribean, love." :lol:

 

 

After seeing the "rescue" ship:

 

"There'll be no living with her after this."

 

 

and of course:

 

"How the blazes did you get off that island ?"

 

"When you marooned me on that godforsaken spit of land, you forgot one very important thing. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow."

 

"Well, I won't be making that mistake ... again."

The first one is really excellent! I mean it's very correct!

 

The second, I didn't know. I don't want to be any joke-killer, but I don't get it :wink: What's this one about? Who is Borges, and who was the guy, he told that?

Borges is one of the most caracteristic writers of Latinamerican "Fantastic Realism", that particular quote comes from a tale written from the point of view of a German Officer in 1939. The sentence is to highlight how obsessive a man, can be and how quickly it can deform into complete insanity. To be obsessed with a country, be it Hungary or any other, and all it implies is a subtle criticism to the German politics at the time.

 

And the first, yup, one of my favorites.

 

@Mask: LOL, Pirates of the Caribbean, one great movie.

:lol::D

Here's a quote I just got from my bother:

 

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we," Mr Bush said. "They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

 

:D:lol::D
