I have to pick a senior quote by next week

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Here's what I'm thinking:</p>

<p>Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.-Twain</p>

<p>It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.-Twain (I really like this, but I''m afraid it may be too caustic?)</p>

<p>There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.-Einstein</p>

<p>"We must be the change we wish to see in the world." -Gandhi. (I know alot of people use it, but I go to a small school, and I havent seen anyone in the last 2 years use it.)</p>

<p>I like the Einstein quote.</p>

3

<p>i agree, the einstein one is good.</p>

4

<p>life's a garden, dig it</p>

5

<p>Twain is sweet use anything written by him. If you back down on any of those quotes, you can never go wrong with Vince Lombardi or Yogi Berra.</p>

6

<p>I wanted to quote Hitler. The quote was, "How fortunate for leaders that men do not think." I thought it was a perfect quote in reference to the Iraq War and the Bush Administration. However, a zealous jewess at our school (she is famous for professiong judaism in EVERYTHING to the extreme) worked in yearbook and complained so I was made to change it. I asked if they could simply leave his name off of the quote but they refused. I was told that I was being anti-semetic. However, I am a semite...so I didn't understand that argument completely. </p>

<p>I had to settle with John Keats, "Beauty is truth, truth beauty--that is all ye know on earth and all ye need to know."</p>

7

<p>personally i would go with jd salinger, the catcher in the rye:</p>

<p>"Game, my ass. Some game. If you get on the side where all the hot-shots are, then it's a game, all right - I'll admit that. But if you get on the other side, where there aren't any hot-shots, then what's a game about it? Nothing. No game."</p>

8

<p>I'm between Twain and Gandhi now.</p>

9

<p>how about this one:
"Life is a camera, you have to use the negatives to develop"</p>

10

<p>@Sirwatson1:</p>

<p>I think that is an excellent quote by Adolf Hitler (not disregarding the fact what he did). But <em>gasp</em>.. it would hopefully make people -think-.. if they could get past the author.. Maybe you should've just put "Anonymous"</p>

<p>My friend used the another Adolf Hitler quote just because it sounds like a typical, inspirational senior quote and at the end it's like, WHAT?? My quote went something like, "party at my house- 8 p.m."</p>
