QUOTES about anything!
ad
My boy Sarge stedanko started a very popular thread called "inspiring quotes". He hasn't been around lately. Probably off in some 3rd world shit hole shooting up some jihadi's so I'm Gona start another just for quotes period. Inspiring quotes are nice. But sometimes I'm feeling cynical or sarcastic and shit like that doesn't belong In an inspiring quotes section. Some of my favorites come from Winston Churchill. He was a sarcastic bastard and I love it. Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, among others. So post your favorite quotes. Doesn't matter the context. We all love a good quote. One that I happen to like at the moment
"They say milk is good for your teeth. You know what else is good for your teeth? Minding your fcking business!"*

“I can’t forget
I am still holding on
With every inch of me
I can’t let it go
I’ve been this way far too long
My very existence
Is built on it
and all around it”

Here is a quote for ya Ed:
lol.
BluesIf you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us.
Hermann Hesse.
I read a lot of Hesse's works - my favourites are Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, and The Glass Bead Game. He was a deep thinker and I like a lot of his philosophical views - but I can't agree with this one. I get the intention, but don't think that it is really a truism.
My favourite quote from Siddhartha, because as a young man I identified with it (and still do to a large extent): "He realised that at all festivals and with all joys of this earth he would never feel wholly comfortable and serene at heart; even in the midst of life he would remain solitary and be, to a certain extent, a watcher, an alien, and he felt that his soul, unlike most others, was so formed that he must be alone to experience both the beauty of the earth and the secret longings of a stranger."
BluesI read all those books you mentioned.. Steppenwolf had the most impact on me, I read it twice and I am trying to read again in German. I really felt I could relate to alot of it. Try Demian. It is one of Hesse's best work if not THE best.
I think I read Demian years ago - but will read it again. I read Hesse along with so many other classic writers when I was in my 20's. Good for you for reading in German, while the translations are probably excellent - the original language would be far better for nuances and so forth. Yes, Steppenwolf - I read it a couple of times too. It's really quite brilliant.
If that's the case, I really loathe myself. :-/
BluesLOL, ya man same here

Paul Brown
As long as people long to feel something I'll be alright. Anyone can tell you a story. Anyone can play you a song. I can show you a picture of what love means to me. But none of it means a thing if you don't feel shit. That's how I live my life. By a feeling."

RIP. Ten years ago today we lost a legend. In my opinion the greatest comedian of all time.
The more I think about it think it more than that. About 7 out of 10 people are stupid.

Anon"You're in a fight against an opponent you cant see, but you can feel them on your heels and breathing down your neck, you know what that is?, thats you. Your fears doubts and insecurities lined up like a firing squad ready to shoot you out of the sky, but dont lose heart, while theyre not easily defeated theyre far from invincible. Remember this is the grind, the battle royal between you, your mind, your body and the devil on your shoulder telling you that this is just a game, a waster of time and your opponents are stronger than you"
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat".
Theodore Roosevelt - "The Man in the Arena"
Great quote for anyone who puts up a good fight everyday and who strives valiantly to do the right thing!
Excellent quote, true words and great meaning...thanks.
