I looked this up; Hope it's hasn't been posted before...

So, what are you're favorite quotes? Here's mine:

"I am the voice of the voiceless; Through me the dumb shall speak till the death World's ears be made to hear the wrongs of the wordless weak. And I am my brother's keeper, and I will fight his fights, and speak the words for beast and bird till the world shall set things right."

~Ella Wheeler Wilcox

"Animal ownership has traditionally been held as a right.
It needs to be a revocable privledge."

~Robert Valentine

"He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men... We can judge the heart of a man by his dealing with animals.

~Imanuel Kant

"You can never do a kindness too soon, because you do not know how soon it will be too late."

~Ralp Waldo Emerson

"Think occasionally of the suffering of witch you save yourself the sight"

~Albert Schweitzer

"There is no genius without a touch of madness." --Some guy (That's my motto right there.)

"You can't give up hope just because it's hopeless! You've gotta hope even more, and cover your ears and go la la la la la la..." --Philip J. Fry, Futurama (My other motto.)

"Sometimes it's not worth it. Van Gogh only sold one painting. He painted one every day. A new painting every day. No one cared what he did, and he had no friends. How lucky we are that he kept going. But how tragic for him to not feel love when he was creating. He has showed us the beauty of some interesting moments, and has made people curious just to the simple strokes of his brush. What a wonderful thing. I wish I could walk past him on a road. I wish I knew where our generation's Van Gogh is right now so I could be his friend."
~~Jack White

Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling

For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.

Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivli.

Fainali, xen, aafte sam 20 iers ov orxogrefkl riform, wi wud hev a lojikl, kohirnt speling in ius xrewawt xe Ingliy-spikingwerld.

"I'm lonely, lonely". -No Face, Spirited Away.

And everything Setsuko ( the little girl in my avatar ) said.

"Welcome, O life! I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of experience and to forge in the smithy of my soul the uncreated conscience of my race." James Joyce

A couple from the guy ALL physics teachers should try to copy, Richard Feynman. There are a couple of other quotes from him that are a little too PG-13 to post here.
“If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.”

"The theoretical broadening which comes from having many humanities subjects on the campus is offset by the general dopiness of the people who study these things..."

and, in true "quoteable til the end" type style,
"I would hate to die twice. It's so boring".

Then, of course, there's Oscar Wilde...
“The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast”
and
"The truth is rarely pure and never simple."

Those are some of my favorites, but there are others.

Oh man, that reminds me of that one episode of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?"

Colin: "I don't know Ryan!"
Ryan: "Bluegrass!"
Colin: "Remember, it's urine-sides that counts"
