Can you imagine what it feels like to have someone sit you down and tell you that you're dying? The gravity of that, hmm? Then the clock's ticking for you. In a split second your awe is cracked open. You look at things differently - smell things differently. You savor everything be it a glass of water or a walk in the park. But most people have the luxury of not knowing when that clock's going to go off. And the irony of it is that that keeps them from really living their life. It keeps them drinking that glass of water but never really tasting it. - Jigsaw

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. ~Elayne Boosler
"The power of grammar is awesome. Take the sentence "A woman, without her man, is nothing." All one must do is move one comma back one word to make the sentence "A woman, without her, man is nothing."" - Dr. Durrell Wallace (YSU)
The internet makes quote diggin' easy. I rarely ever "remember" a quote, at least not verbatim. I might recall the general meaning, and I usually recall the person who spoke it, what they generally stand for and such. Apamment quoted violence and that brought a lot of people to mind. These came right up. The most important element of a free society, where individual rights are held in the highest esteem, is the rejection of the initiation of violence. -R. Paul And this one I was surprised at (just found it, will have to examine a bit and possibly develop a greater appreciation for the context in which it was delivered. Consider the source ) It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence. -M. Gandhi [an interesting and funny Penn & Teller commentary on Gandhi... mind you, P&T like their colorful language] THIS one, though, I always remember. Gen. Moltke is always misquoted as saying no plan survives contact with the enemy. I appreciate even the misquote, because it still manages to capture the general idea. In fact, Moltke was telling us how things fall apart, and why planning is a persistent, ongoing effort. The tactical result of an engagement forms the base for new strategic decisions because victory or defeat in a battle changes the situation to such a degree that no human acumen is able to see beyond the first battle. In this sense one should understand Napoleon's saying: "I have never had a plan of operations." Therefore... "... no plan of operations extends with any certainty beyond the first contact with the enemy's main force."
"Nobody ever defended anything successfully, There is only attack and attack and attack some more." - George S. Patton

Some more of my favorites: "Why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to get back up." -Batman Begins "Television is a medium because anything well done is rare." -Fred Allen "I've failed over and over and over again in my life; and that is why I have succeeded." -Michael Jordan "Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is obviously not giving the kiss the attention it deserves." -Einstein "All men are equal before fish." -Herbert Hoover "Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a LOT." -Groucho Marx
This reminded me of a Veggie Tales quote Larry Boy is a Batman-esque spoof and in one of them Archibald Asparagus falls over and since he has no arms, says "Help I have fallen and I cannot get up" XD
