Quotes
Here is a list of some of quotes that I have found that I like. There are a lot more that I will put up later on.
"Love all. Trust a few. Do wrong to none"
-- William Shakespeare
"The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one."
-- Psychoanalyst Wilhelm Stekel. This quote I found at the end of one of my favourite books 'The Catcher In The Rye' by J.D Salinger
"Today, skies are painted colours of a cowboy cliché/
And strange, how clouds that look like mountains/
In the sky are next to mountains anyway."
-- John Mayer, from the song '3X5' from the album 'Room For Squares'.
"Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion."
-- Charlotte Brontë
"I don't know much at all/
I don't know wrong from right."
-- Good Charlotte, from the song "My Bloody Valentine" from the album 'The Young and The Hopeless'. The song was based on the short story by Edgar Allan Poe called
"The Tell-Tale Heart"
"Hold onto your power,
Don't let others squash it.
Hold onto your courage,
Don't let others preach it out of you.
Hold onto your independance,
Don't let others scare it out of you.
Author your life without guilt or shame,
Do not live to please others,
Refuse to surrender to your truest self,
and your wisest voice."
-- Patricia Lynn Reilly
"If we did not have faults of our own, we would not take so much pleasure in noticing those of others."
-- François, Duc de La Rochefoucauld
"In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man."
-- Alfred Hitchcock (1899 - 1980)
"He who fights too long against dragons becomes a dragon himself, and if you gaze too long into the abyss, the abyss will gaze into you."
