What is your favorite quote?


Mine:

I have two...

"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." --e.e. cummings


"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." --Edmund Burke

My favorite quote is: "the most beautiful adventures are not those we go to seek" by Robert Louis Stevenson. I just love it!

I have a few favourite quotes, all of which are enlightening to some extent.

One is Oscar Wilde, who said: 'Quotation is a serviceable to wit'

My personal favourite involves the response of a young lady whose hand I once asked.

"Conor Darrall, there's not a chance in Hell that I'd ever marry you" - Sara L__

Love it

My favorite quote isn't anything profound...it's from The Office and it makes me laugh every time I hear it!!

"I have no vampire experience, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got there, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog." -Dwight Shrute

I have several:

"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us." (Joseph Cambell)

"This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on seas and continents and islands, as the round earth rolls." (John Muir)

"If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera." (Lewis Hine)

"A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it." (Jean de La Fontaine)

My favorite quote is:

Don't let fear stand in the way of your dreams.

I'm not sure who said it, but I've tried to live my life by it. I don't ever NOT want to do something just because I'm scared. A lot of things scare me and if that kept me from doing things, I'd never leave the house.

I really love these two by Oscar Wilde:
"I can resist anything but temptation."

and
LORD GORING:
I am going to give you some good advice.
MRS. CHEVELEY:
Oh! pray don't. One should never give a woman anything that she can't wear in the evening.
