"That's because we are uncool! And while women will always be a problem for guys like us, most of the great art in the world is about that very problem. Good-looking people have no spine!Their art never lasts! They get the girls, but we're smarter...Yeah, great art is about conflict and pain and guilt and longing and love disguised as sex, and sex disguised as love... and let's face it, you got a big head start...The only true currency in this bankrupt world if what we share with someone else when we're uncool. My advice to you. I know you think those guys are your friends. You want to be a true friend to them? Be honest and unmerciful." -Almost Famous

"Do you think the plural of penis is peni or penises? Penises because you'd never want to shorten it, you'd want to add to it"

My Italian grandmother had taken a placemat that she had from a restaurant and framed it, because she liked the quote. I got it when she passed, and it's kind of cheesy, but it's meaningful too:
Count your age by friends,
not years.
Count your life by smiles,
not tears.

I posted my old and standard fav's in a previous quotes thread. So here are my new ones : *by the way great topic, I love quotes!*
Don't ever regret something that once made you smile.
~unknown
I don't wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has to get down to work.
~my KD sister Pearl S Buck
I once had a garden of flowers that grew only on dark thoughts, but they needed constant attention and one day I decided I had better things to do.
~unknown
You're not perfect. And let me save you the suspense, this girl you met isn't either. The question is, whether or not you're perfect for each other.
~ Good Will Hunting
Every great oak tree was once a nut that stood its ground.
~unknown
Just for today I will be happy. Just for today I will try to live through this day only, not to tackle my whole life problem at once. I can do things for twelve hours that would appall me if I had to keep them up for a lifetime. Just for today...
~Sybyl Partridge
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.
~Albert Camus
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.
~Henry David Thoreau
and my new fav
You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.
~Sam Keen

ok, wait i've got more
I forgive myself for having believed for so long that...I was never good enough to have, get, be what I wanted.
~Ceanne DeRohan
I admit it's tempting to wish for the perfect boss - the perfect parent - or the perfect outfit. But maybe the best any of us can do is not quit - play the hand we've been dealt, and accessorize what we've got.
~Sex and the City
After all -- people die, computers crash. All we can do is breathe and reboot.
~Sex and the City
Every failure made me more confident. Because I wanted even more to achieve things, as revenge. To show that I could.
~Roman Polanski
It's ok to mess up. You should give yourself a break.
~Billy Joel
