The Sporting Agent 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Inspired by the Rudyard Kipling thread; what are your favourate quotes..... Mine are........... All men dream, but not equally, those that dream at night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act upon their dreams with eyes open, to make it possible†TE Lawrence It is not the critic who counts, nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or when the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; whe at best in the end knows the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails whilst daring greatly – so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid soles who know neither victory nor defeat……….for those who have to fight for it, life has truly a flavour the protected shall never know. FD Roosevelt We are the pilgrims, Master, we shall go Always a little further it may be Beyond that last blue mountain barred with snow Beyond that angry or that glimmering sea Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dytkos 17,804 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I like the one that Samuel L Jackson says in Pulp Fiction, also "It's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rolfe 2 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, drink in the other. your body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "Whoohoo! What a ride". Rolfey. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 1,873 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Morrissey: "Some girls are bigger than others, some girls are bigger then others, some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers." Morrissey: "I dreamt about you last night and I fell out of bed twice, you could pin a mountain like a butterfly." Hugh Laurie in "Sense and Sensibility": "I came to Devonshire with no other view." And a general one: "Be careful what you wish for as one day you may just get it." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mackem 26,859 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage-Confucius. One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other-Jane Austin. An oppressive government is more to be feared than a tiger-Confucius. I can resist everything except temptation-Oscar Wilde. Stolen sweets are best-Cibber. I guess that just about sums up my personal philosophy Edited February 9, 2008 by mackem Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stallion 0 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 A conscience is what hurts when all other parts feel so good. Opportunities always look bigger going than coming Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. Stallion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
