JohnSmite Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor.I think this is the perfect quote for life. Everything you do to improve yourself takes immense effort but in the end instead of a rough block of marble you have a beautiful sculpture.

senji Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 It has to be the one from the late comedian Bill Hicks,“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the Weather.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizore742 Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 My favorite English quote would have to be "One May Tolerate A World of Demons For The Sake of An Angel", it's from a show called Doctor Who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myreallife85 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 I like English quotes very much. I enjoy reading and learning them much. It's like a hobby to me. I like Ralph Waldo Emerson: “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” I admire this quote.

sos Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Here is one that I heard just last week.

kilat Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Here are a few that I particularly like:“Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.” ― Dr. Seuss“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” ― Mae West“A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.” ― Elbert Hubbard“There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.” ― Ernest Hemingway“Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” ― Dalai Lama XIV“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” ― Socrates“You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.” ― Winston Churchill“God created war so that Americans would learn geography.” ― Mark Twain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dlp92 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Inspirational, from a giant of American literature:Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.Mark Twain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g2narat Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I actually have two favorite quotes:“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” This quote is often attributed to Albert Einstein but there's no proof that he ever said/wrote it. I think whoever wrote it is a genius."Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God." A lot of people think this was the work of Nelson Mandela, but it was actually Marianne Williamson who wrote that. I love this quote, so does my brother, although he first heard it from the movie Coach Carter :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosa Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 One of my favorite English quotes and one that I have been using lately is "He who fights and run away will live to fight another day." With the heart of mankind growing desperately wicked , I find that I often have to be steering a lot of young people into the path of peace and I often use this quote.

JessiFox Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 "I hate the idea that when it comes to books and learning, hard is often seen as the opposite of fun. It's strange to me that we would be so quick to give up on a book or a math problem when we are so willing to grapple, for centuries if necessary, with a single level of angry birds." - John Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonyi Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 My favorite quote is in the Bible.
