Hey all,

I'm just wondering what some of your favorite quotes are. They can be from a valued friend, something you've heard, or even from a game.

I guess I'll start with one that I've heard -
"Nothing will last forever"
I guess I like it because it reminds me that one day, no matter what, you have a limited life. Live it well.

I also have one from Majora's Mask. It wasn't really supposed to be legendary, but it hit me at a good time in my life when I was in a bit of a fight with a good friend.
"Forgive your friend..."

Your turn!

"Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies."

My best friend and I ran across this a couple of years after we met. We clicked right away on several levels and when she and I saw this quote we knew it summed us up perfectly. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_cool.gif

"When the student is ready, the teacher will appear."

Helped teach me patience.

Squall: Right and wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's our different standpoints, our perspectives that separate us. Both sides blame one another. There's no good or bad side. Just 2 sides holding different views.

"Pancakes, yo" ~Seth, SOMT

"There are gods, Little One. Some are worshipped. Some are feared. Some are worshipped out of fear. Others have bees forgotten; sealed away for better or worse.

But make no mistake, Little One. To the gods, this is all a game. A simple roll of the dice. But all games must obey rules. And that is where our order comes into play.

Many are content to merely live by the rules. To go through the entirely of their lives without understanding them. Not those such as we. We have begun to uncover the systems, the machinery that works our world. For centuries we have catalogued and researched and cross-indexed the rules in order to seek a greater understanding of them so that we too may become as gods. So that we may transcend from mere playthings into the players.

Our understanding is not yet complete. We haven't enough knowledge to fully break the rules, but we may... bend them to our favor from time to time. These are the first steps, Little One. The first steps to ascension.

In your travels you will learn much of the world and much of yourself. You will bend the rules, and the rules will bend you. That is the very nature of the game. But remember this. Their dice is our free will...

It's all in the dice..." ~All of that from 8-Bit Theater.

There was a thread like this a while ago, so I'll just post my response to that one.

[spoiler-box]
Don't remember the exact quote, went something like.


Why did God create Humans separate from himself. So he may say, be not like me, for I am alone, and it be heard.

A few more, mainly from rap songs:

Look honey everbody needs a help-up buddy
No body's drug-free, the streets would be hella bloody
Do you call yourself a patient of a junky?
The only thing that separates is who takes your money


can't have one or two chains, we need three of dem
Can't have one or two guns without squeezin 'em
on our own people and, fuck black leaders
cause whites ain't got none leadin them, the rhythm is cosmic
Nas is divinity, the deity's prophetless


If the opposite of pro is a con then look beyond this
The opposite of congress must be progress

I'll post more as they come to mind.

Megaman Zero 4, quoted by Zero, one of my favorite quotes in that series

I never cared about justice, and I don't recall ever calling myself a hero... I have always only fought for the people I believe in. I won't hesitate... If an enemy appears in front of me, I will destroy it!

There may be no "I" in "team", but there's "me" in "team" and "me" is just another word for "I".

i'll give you a quote from final fantasy 10, probably the only time i'd quote a game:



"Auron: You remind me of myself. Before, the closer I came to Zanarkand, the more I wondered... when we arrive, Braska will call the Final Aeon... He will fight Sin, then die. I thought my mind was made up long before. But when I stood here, my resolve wavered.

Wakka: Huh, never would've figured. Legendary guardians choke sometimes, too.

Auron: Legendary guardian? I was just a boy. A boy about your age, actually. I wanted to change the world, too. But I changed nothing. That is my story."

Commentators often say some memorable things

'If they come back it's a night we'll remember for a long time. But that's a capital if.'

'I’d never allow myself to let myself call myself a coward.’

'Never go for a 50-50 ball unless you're 80-20 sure of winning it.'

'You don't score 64 goals in 86 games without being able to score goals.'

'He went through a non-existant gap.'

'Such a positive move by Uruguay - bringing 2 players off and putting 2 players on.'

'It's headed away by John Clark, using his head.'

And so on.

-"I believe it is not a sin for people to live rich, but it is a sin to die rich."

There are many others I'll post if I remember them, but those are the ones off the top of my head. ._@
