What is your motto or favorite quote and Why?

[bmxkraut]

I LOVED THE MOVIE POINT BREAK .. BRODY (PATRICK SWAYZE) HAD SOME GREAT PHILOSOPHIES. MY FAVORITE:

"FEAR CAUSES HESITATION, HESITATION WILL CAUSE ALL YOUR WORST FEARS TO COME TRUE."

[IluvmyStaats]

One I've often heard at the bike track:

"Stop whining!"

That quote is a real winner.

[bubbaliciousbmxr]

This is one of the best quotes I've ever read.

"And with laughter and with love, they lived happily ever after."

It's my favorite way to end a book.

[IlovemyStaats]

Man Bubbaliciousbmxr, that was cheezy. You must like fairy tales 'eh?

[bubbaliciousbmxr]

Hey! Be nice to me!

[Diesel]

Better to ask forgiveness than permission!

Only two ways to do something dangerous; all the time or not at all!

Section XIII #33 and #36 of the ABA Rulebook.

"What we have here is........failure to comunicate"

"He LIED................. to us, HE.....PLAYED.....ON....OUR...... FEARS"

More to come!

[bubbaliciousbmxr]

Here's an amusing story- there really is no true point to it.

"I was wandering through the forest when i came across a skull. Like any good person I called the police and they said they were to come out. But then i got curious. Who was this person and why did they have antlers growing out of their head?"

Here's another one:

"I can imagine us in a perfect world.......and then i can imagine us DESTROYING that perfect world."

(I got these out of an e-mail called 'deep thoughts'- yeah their cheezy, but they are funny once you get them.)

If someone back east found a human skull with antlers, they would have thought the person was a mormon. There are people in this world that still believe that ol' tale.

[Curtis Newkirk]

Dan nailed one of my favorites from Cool Hand Luke...

Beyond that I have:
"I love the smell of Napalm in the morning!" Apocolypse Now

Heres a little Pulp Fiction for you:
[Ezekiel 25:17 among others]
Jules : "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

More Pulp (at least that is appropriate for this board):Jules : "Mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down with?"

...and then there is Office Space which is filled with many thousands of one-liners. This being one of my favorites:

"Milton Waddams : [talking on the phone] And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire. "

...and if that is not warped enough we have Beavis & Butthead Do America with:

Little Old Lady : I'm sorry, son. I got this ringin' in my ears. My doctor says it could be related to my heart palpitations.
Beavis : Really? I poop too much.
Little Old Lady : Oh. Maybe you're... lactose-intolerant.
Beavis : No, no. I POOP TOO MUCH! Then I get tired.

BUT - my alltime favorite quote is from Kung Fu:

"Snatch this pebble from my hand..."

Forgive my strange sense of humor

[greg]

this has got to be the all time classic quote:

When I was going to college, I lived with 5 other blondes that did not like guys.

just makes me laugh everytime I read that, Jenni! I know.....I have a warped sense of.....everything, but 6 blonde college babes not particularly attracted to men....my mind just goes into overload. lol


some others I like:

Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead! (I believe it was a civil war captain, cant remember his name)

then there is WAY too many Monty Python quotes that I like, but how about:

it's just a flesh wound, come back here and fight, you coward.

I fart in your general direction (has to be said with the heavy french accent to make it sound right)

more later

[greg]

oh, how could I have forgotten this one:

blah, blah, bla blah bla blah. Blah? Blah bla blah! ( Al Bundy giving his son advice)

[justinsbmxmom]

Greg, I must correct you. There were 6 blondes but only 5 of them did not like men. Another line one of my room mates said to a hot guy.....

William: What is something you dream about?
Marianne: I always wish I could find the man of my dreams.....while I'm still awake. I find that difficult.


My sister was proposed to once with this line...

Devere: I had a dream last night that we got married and we were happy.
Shanille: Oh man, what a nightmare.

Devere had his mother call my mother and tell her that he was proposing. My mom stood up for my sister and agreed it would be a nightmare.

[J Gallo]

Ok, here's a good one:

“Hey, I came here to be drugged, electrocuted and probed, not insulted.”

Homer Simpson as a guinea pig at the ‘Screaming Monkey Research Center’

[PEDDLEPUSHER]

I like this one.....the police officer to a woman who is receiving a ticket..
"You dont think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we dont, sign here......

And one of my all time favorites....

It isnt widely known, but the first toilet seat was invented by a scientist who was a Democrat in the 18th century. The invention was later modified by a Republican inventor who put a whole in the seat:)

Ride hard:)
