Some of my favorite quotes

Some more serious, and some much more sarcastic, but they all tickle my fancy... please enjoy.



What we can or cannot do, what we consider possible or impossible, is rarely a function of our true capability. It is more likely a function of our beliefs about who we are.

Tony Robbins

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds.

Bob Marley

You're only as pretty as you feel.

Jefferson Airplaine

If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern. 

William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell


“It was her habit to build up laughter out of inadequate materials.” 

 John Steinbeck

"There's a theory which states that if ever, for any reason anyone discovers what exactly the Universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another that states that this has already happened." 

Douglas Adams

He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.” 

Elbert Hubbard

Our greatest glory lies not in never falling,

but rising every time we fall.
Confucius

To be nobody but yourself in a world doing its best to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human can ever fight and never stop fighting. 

e. e. Cummings

Without deviation progress is not possible.

Frank Zappa

“Music has always been a matter of Energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.”
Hunter S. Thompson

“If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little” 

George Carlin
