Favourite quotes

"When I was a kid, I used to have an imaginary friend. I thought he went everywhere with me.
I could talk to him and he could hear me, and he could grant me wishes and stuff too.
But then I grew up, and stopped going to church."
 
“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.” TE Lawrence apparently but I heard it in a film or game….google says Uncharted

“You don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone” Joni Mitchell…I heard/prefer it from Tom Kiefer, Cinderella tho!

A couple from the very excellent barbarian, Genesis Khan:

"I am the hammer of God. Your sins must be very great to set me upon you."

"The greatest thing in life is to destroy your enemies, take their wealth, and have their women"- this one got used in Conan the Barbarian and Game of Thrones.

Genesis Khan?
Wasn’t he a pal of Phil Collins?
 
Just a thought, but relying on mob intimidation, violence, the threat of personal ruination, and the power of giant monopolistic corporations to terrify everyone into thinking the same way probably suggests you’re not on the “right side of history."

Couple of quite low brow movie quotes I, for some reason, chuckle far too loudly at.

"Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience" - Mark Twain

"Now, if that's a fact, tell me, am I lying?" - Clifford Worley (Dennis Hopper) - True Romance
 
So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night.
So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town.
So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger.
I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes.
Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.
 
"Put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH,' the paint wouldn't even have time to dry."

Not sure if this is meant to be a serious thread?

"Do you suck dicks?... I bet you could suck a golf ball through a garden hose."

"Two things fill the mind with ever newly increasing admiration and awe, the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me."
- Immanuel Kant, epitaph.

And there I was thinking the sniper from TF2 was being original.
