Some of YOUR fav quotes?
 
I dont know about you guys but I LOOOVE to read quotes on people's profiles and away messages....okay okay im lame but hey im sure im not the only one......:rolleyes:



Here are a few that I have picked up from other people (they are not mine).....feel free to share.


"Sex with an ex can be depressing: If its good then you dont have it anymore and if its bad..you just have sex with your ex."


"If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees."

"He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it." Douglas Adams



"On a positive note. I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I've learned that life sometimes gives u a second chance. I've learned that u shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. U need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what u said, people will forget what u did, but people will never forget how u made them feel."
~Maya Angelou


"Wise girls kiss but don't fall in love, listen but don't believe, and leave before she is left."



There comes a point in your life when you realize who truly matters, who never did, and who always will

I LOVE quotes, esp. from movies and TV shows, I'll be watching something and I'll be like damn, I need to write that down. I really love movie taglines too.

"I'm 22 years old - that's almost 30, and I still haven't accepted that this is my life. And I just wish that I could be dumb. And then I wouldn't know better and I could be happy and stop hoping. And I'm telling you this like you're interested in my boring life."–Riding in Cars with Boys, said by Beverly (Drew Barrymore)

"If you stay single in New York long enough, you're supposed to get wiser about dating. What men to pick, where to meet them...but what really made any of us experts? Wasn't our single status a neon sign that we couldn't get it right? What if all these years in New York have only made us older, more confused, or dead? Are we getting wiser, or just older?"-Sex & the City, Carrie

AlphaFrog 10-07-2003 12:34 AM

Ok, I'll bite on this one....

"Conscienceness: That annoying time between naps."

"Conscienceness: That annoying time between beers."

"I once heard the voice of God. It said 'Vrrrrrrmmmm.' Then I realized it was the lawn mower."

I love quotes! They're fun!

FiReKraCkEr 10-07-2003 12:56 AM

"Some people meet that somebody that they can never stop loving, no matter how hard they try. I don't expect you to understand that, or even believe it, but trust me, there are some loves that don't go away. And maybe that makes them crazy, but we should all be lucky to end up with somebody who never lets go." -Ally McBeal

"When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible".- When Harry Met Sally

"Later that night I got to thinking about fate, that crazy concept that we're not really responsible for the course our lives take, that it's all predestined, written in the stars. Maybe that explains why if you live in a city where you can't even see the stars your love life tends to feel a little more random. And even if our every man, every kiss, every heartache is prerecorded from some cosmic catalogue can we still take a wrong step and wander off our own personal milkyway? I couldn't help but wonder, can you make a mistake and miss your fate?"-Carrie, Sex & the City

"Some people are settling down, some people are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies." - Carrie, "Sex and the City"

AOX81 10-09-2003 06:28 AM

"Love is extacy and agony. Freedom and imprisonment. It's what keeps people together and apart."

"Two people can be perfect for each other--and if the timing is wrong it is never going to work out for them. Bad timing is the reason most normal people end up single. weirdos and creeps are single because they are weirdos and creeps. but people like us are single because we are the victims of bad timing."

"Love is a minefield: You take a step, get blown to pieces, put yourself back together again, and stupidly take another step. I guess that's human nature. It hurts so much to be alone that we'd all rather blow up than be single."

"I cheese sandwich you."

LuaBlanca 10-09-2003 04:20 PM

"If you start out depressed, everything is a pleasant surprise." -Lloyd Dobbler, "Say Anything"

"Do you believe in love at first sight? Nah, I bet you don't you're probably too sensible for that.
