<p>Eh, I've seen it as being said by both Sir Angus Grossart and Thomas Carlyle. I don't know where George Bernard Shaw came in. :P</p>
<p>Edit: Oh wait, here it is!</p>
<p>"The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it." -George Bernard Shaw</p>
<p>But yeah. It speaks the essence of my life as well. It's also the page name for my Xanga. :)</p>
<p>Also, the stars quote is actually by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Mibad.</p>
<p>I second any Mitch Hedberg quote. I think I spelled his name right.</p>
<p>I have no idea who said it, I guess it's like a common proverb or what ever... "The darkest hour comes just before dawn"</p>
<p>"Seamos realista, realicemos lo imposible"
Ernesto "Che" Guevara</p>
<p>"The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves. "
Victor Hugo</p>
<p>"I think any man ever who says he has never had an awkward moment with a girl is a liar... He's either a liar or he's delusional."
Dan Radcliffe :)</p>
<p>"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better."
-Samuel Beckett</p>
<p>"Forward, as occasion offers. Never look round to see whether any shall note it... Be satisfied with success in even the smallest matter, and think that even such a result is no trifle."
-Marcus Aurelius</p>
<p>"Don't try to get on my good side, Truvy. I no longer have one."
-Steel Magnolias <- and many more from that movie</p>
<p>"I really wish I was less of a thinking man and more of a fool not afraid of rejection." -Billy Joel</p>
<p>"You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is 'never try'." --Homer Simpson</p>
<p>"Beware the lollipop of mediocrity. Lick once and you suck forever." </p>
<p>...and many, many more</p>
<p>"Here, I'm supposed to tell her the truth. I admire addicts. In a world where everybody is waiting for some blind, random disaster or some sudden disease, the addict has the comfort of knowing what will most likely wait for him down the road. He's taken some control over his ultimate fate, and his addiction keeps the cause of death from being a total surprise.In a way being an addict is very proactive.A good addiction takes the guess work out of death. There is such a thing as planning your get away. And for serious, it's such a chick thing to think that any human life should just go on and on."</p>
<p>"What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we cant decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. There is no free will. There are no variables. There is only the inevitable."</p>
<p>and basically any word written by oscar wilde and chuck palahniuk.</p>
<p>"madam you have between your legs an instrument that could bring pleasure to thousands, yet all you can do is scratch it"</p>
<p>sir thomas beecham (to a cellist)</p>
<p>To laugh often and much:
to win the respect of intelligent people
And the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
And endure the betrayal of false friends:
To appreciate beauty:
To find the best in others:
To give one's self:
to leave the world a little better.
whether by a healthy child.
A garden patch.
or a redeemed social condition:
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm
And sung with exultation:
To know even one life has breathed easier
Because you have lived...
This is to have succeeded. </p>
<p>-Ralph Waldo Emerson</p>
<p>Alright, these are really random...</p>
<p>"Don't have sex man. It leads to kissing and pretty soon you have to start talking to them."
-Steve Martin</p>
<p>"You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough."
-Mae West</p>
<p>"All I'm saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don't get him first, somebody else will, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband" - When Harry met Sally</p>
<p>"There are easier things in life than trying to find a nice guy...like nailing jelly to a tree for example" </p>
<p>Trooper: What the hell are you driving here?
Del: We had a small fire last night, but we caught it in the nick of time.
Trooper: Do you have any idea how fast you were going?
Del: Funny enough, I was just talking to my friend about that. Our speedometer has melted and as a result it's very hard to see with any degree of accuracy exactly how fast we were going.
