Sorry I didnt feel like reading through this whole thread to see if this was already posted but this is my favorite quote from Magus. . .

'If history is to be changed, let it change! If the world is to be destroyed, so be it! If my fate is to be destroyed, I must simply laugh!' -Magus

[Samopoznanie]

A pair from the book I'm currently reading...

"Autumn, a season of dying nature, of melancholy, of seeking the past, was best for writing obituaries. Winter, joyous in itself - bracing frost, snow sparkling in the sun - was good for living."

"A hard life is better than an easy death."

~ from the novel, 'Death and the Penguin'.

[V_Translanka]

Chrono quotes seem a bit redundant here.

This one's in my current MSN personal message/quote/link thingy...

We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I would include Jayne's Chain of Command quote, but I'm fairly sure I've read it in here already...

[Samopoznanie]

"To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what he’s doing is good.”

“You are born in a clear field, but you die in a dark wood.”

~ Russian Proverbs

[Katie Skyye]

"If you strive for something with all your soul and body and you put every fiber of your being into achieving our goals--you might still fail. But you'll never be disappointed because you did everything that you could do." Unknown

[Mr Bekkler]

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

From The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams

[01:20] <Ramsus> Okay, so we can't rely on V to keep things under control.

I think I have a new Ramsus quote for my sig!

EDIT: I'll just put this one in here too...

Seriously though, why do people keep asking for a leak?

Because it's stupid, and stupid, for whatever reason, seems to be contagious.

[Thought]

Impossible is just a word people use to make themselves feel better when they quit.

This day will always be remembered. How it's remembered is up to us.

[Katie Skyye]

I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. The are so unlike your Christ. ~Gandhi.

He hit that nail on the head, anyway...

[KebreI]

Impossible is just a word people use to make themselves feel better when they quit.

This day will always be remembered. How it's remembered is up to us.

That does it I'm playing SoA later.

[GenesisOne]

These are some of my favorite.

Quote from John Ruskin:

The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.

Quote from Eleanor Roosevelt:

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Quote from Bruce Springsteen:

If I have a good trait, it's probably relentless.

Hope you like them.

[Lord J Esq]

Coldfinger: Before I kill you, how about a drink?

James Bund: I'll have a martini...stirred, not shaken!

Coldfinger: And would you care for some ICE with that, Mr. Bund?

[GenesisOne]

Snappy one-liners come from all kinds of sources.  Whether it's a snazzy introduction, a witty rhetort/ comeback, or a well-sounding farewell, nothing beats the quick egotistic inflation of a snappy one-liner.

As such, feel free to post your favorite one-liner(s) from whatever source you can think of (movie, tv series, animated series, broadway musical, and so on).  Be sure to tell us whose saying it and the context (so we don't get the wrong impression).  Nothing vulgar or offensive, if you please.

Here's mine to start with:

"Powdered...Toast...Maaaaaaaaaan!!!!"
- Powdered Toast Man's heroic line, The Ren & Stimpy Show

Have fun!    

Your One-Liner thread is just this quote thread, so here ya go...!

[ONSLAUGHT]

It's not exactly started as a one liner, but I turned into one and use it often as one.

"I don't remember asking you a goddamn thing!"

Samuel L. Jackson, Pulp Fiction.
Doesn't this seem like spam? Not the kind that can have some meaning behind it but the senseless kind? I dunno something feels off with this...

[Truthordeal]

It might very well be, Onslaught. That's up to V to decide, though.

So, while I'm here I thought I'd drop one of my favorite lines from 8 Bit Theatre. It took me a good deal of browsing through various strips but I finally found it.

"Hm? Oh, you're done. Yes, well your point or points may or may not have been excellent, but I must disagree on the basis that I'm sure it involves me doing things I'd rather not."

-Black Mage, 8 Bit Theatre.

In fact, that one's probably going into my sig once I get bored with this one from Crimson Echoes.
